 “I enjoy a good link.” Wait, it’s Friday already? What the heck did I do all this week? OK, well, it can’t be helped now. Let’s do some Link Love! Today’s links are all of the playful variety. Hama Bead Weaving, from Mini-eco I’m still all intrigued about perler/hama beads, and loving this bead-fabric Kate made. The … Read On! There’s More!  Happy Friday!

Some ideas are just too good to ignore. This morning on Twitter, I was giggling at how K, whenever he does something nice for me, says “Hey Girl…” a la Handmade Ryan Gosling. And then Rachel said: …And I thought, she is absolutely right. And so, dropping everything, I made this collection of Handmade … Read On! There’s More!  Thought I’d share a bit of sorta crafty, sorta science-y tomfoolery we’ve had going on over here this week. (I’ve always wanted to use the word “tomfoolery” on this blog!) So, a while back, I did a post on CRAFT about this amazing bouncy digital camera. Go ahead and check out the little video; I’ll … Read On! There’s More!  K and I have some home improvement going on this weekend. We had been talking about moving this year, but ended up deciding that staying put another year was more prudent. But after six years in the same place, let’s just say a refresh is needed. BOY, would I love to replace this sofa! It’s … Read On! There’s More!  Just popping in today to share links to a couple kid-craft articles I’ve done recently for CRAFT. The first of which is a tutorial for this life-size board game.
