ParentHacks…

There was a great post on PH I read today re making easter egg shaped sidewalk chalk using plastic eggs, and they mentioned they had a widget for their blog now. Just playin' with it…

ParentHacks is just one of the parenting blog I keep up with via Bloglines, though the majority are design (love design*sponge) and crafty blogs. And the occasional gossipy fashion site.

Wish vox was compatible with performancing firefox plugin.

I am a sxsw widow this week, but the toddler went down easy and fairly early tonight, huzzah!

Glow in the dark diecut stars…

I have added a new category of products, d.i.y. & kits, and a new product: a set of 10 glow-in-the-dark stars that can be used as appliques/embellishment on your own items (clothing, a tote bag, etc) either by hand-sewing or machine stitching. Probably could do more than one item! There are a mix of 4 sizes, I cut them myself on my die press….

Knitting for Peace

Heard this inspiring podcast today, Jennifer from craftsanity was interviewing Betty Christiansen, the author of “Knitting For Peace: Make the World a Better Place Once Stitch at a Time.” Great to have compiled info re organizations that need handknitted donations all in one place. Such a noble use of stash!
