featured!

i hope everyone had a wonderful valentine's day no matter what you were doing or who you were with! i'll post more about our day later {with some poorly lit iphone photos- sorry!} but for now here are the wonderful treasuries i was featured in this week.
more thinking ahead to spring this week...lots of green!

featuring the olive green bobbies. thanks natalie!

this one features my teal & mustard dahlia ring. thank you cookie philosophy!

 featuring the freshly cut grass dahlia earrings. thanks choosing beauty!

and the dahlia ring again! this is a gorgeous collection that makes me wish for the sun. thanks berniolie

time to get a little work done around here then i'm off to the 'big city' this afternoon. i've been putting off stocking up on supplies and i have a craft show just around the corner so it's a much needed trip! i'll also be stopping at target for half off chocolate! did you know we're reaching the end of discount chocolate season? there's a big lull between the day after easter and the day after halloween. time to stock up! :)

treasury tuesday

last week's post got skipped as i was trying to figure out how to get the actual treasuries to post in readers. i've been talking with the developer of the treasury widget at craftcult and he's working on it. so in the mean time, click on over & see these great collections!

it seems this week everyone is thinking spring! so many of the items featured are green {surprise, surprise!} and that makes me smile!

featuring the olive green headband {which you can order in all new colors!} thanks so much ashbrook valentine!





featuring the peacock clip/brooch. thanks dream belle designs!




featuring the vanilla bean dahlia ring! thanks so much León and Coco!




featuring my {favorite} birds nest earrings. thank you betsy!




featuring the ocean breeze rosette necklace. thanks Orchid Lane Designs!!




i could keep going. i was honored to be featured 10 times this week {!!} but instead i'll share my favorite treasury of the week. this one was created by the talented brandi from sweet harvey, llc. have you checked out her shop? fabulous letterpress stationery plus now screenprinted items! she's a wonderful seller & she makes beautiful treasuries!

welcome!

if you're visiting from mandipidy's 'my readers are crafty' event- welcome! i hope that my dress dying tutorial was helpful and inspired you to dye something you have laying around- even if it is polyester! the original post is here {and includes extra ridiculous pictures of me dying the dress at midnight!}.

you can also dye something that is already colored, just make sure you're going darker!

if you decide to dye a dress or a skirt or a shirt let me know! i'd love to see the finished product! i'm still considering a second attempt on the dress to see if i can get it to be the pretty dark green color i hoped for!
