Tiny House

I want to build a tiny house. I don't own any property or have anywhere to actually put a tiny house. But I want to at least know how to build one. Vermont Tiny Houses offers weekend workshops to teach you how to build your very own 300 sq. ft. or less space. In one weekend! Everything you need to know! Vermont isn't exactly down the street, but I think a long weekend road trip for a project like this would be worth going out of the way for. I've always wanted to see Vermont anyways.

Made In The South Awards



Made in the South myself, and appreciating most that there is to being Southern, as well as crafts in general, I'm really curious to see what this is all about.

The Mad Ones, Matted

A few weeks ago I got around to framing the print I bought from Jamie awhile back. I covered the matte with some old shelf paper I had found at a garage sale some years ago. I've been holding onto it waiting for the right project to come along to put it to use. The colors ended up matching perfectly - I couldn't be more pleased with how it turned out!

Koko




I noticed KokoStudio's work while browsing the Domino Magazine Flickr Group today. I find her work inspiring and dreamy.

FLOCKS

Wouldn't it be so nice to sprawl out on this huge hand knit rug? It's made by FLOCKS from the wool of 18 merino sheep.

I'm imagining all sorts of cozy activities taking place on a rug like this: sipping hot chocolate while watching a movie or reading a good book, wrapping presents, or playing a board game with a group of friends.

Emo-broidery


The witty craftsters at Miso Funky are stitching up a different type of cross-stitch sampler than the kind your Granny makes.


These samplers catch you off guard & crack you up -- unless you are easily offended {there are a few on the brasher side}. I happen to adore them. "Hand-stitched in hell!," as their website proudly proclaims.

Paper Flower Garlands


I want to throw an outdoor party soon just so I can decorate with these garlands made from colored paper bags, as seen on Martha.
