Fabulous Finds for Friday

In order to keep to creative juices flowing I do a bit of searching on the web, looking for new ideas, new tutorials, new patterns, etc. I spend time on Pinterest, Twitter and just general looking around.

I thought I would share a few of  my fabulous finds. Not all of them relate to what I do but thought you might like to see them. I don't have to aspire to complete the project to appreciate it. I found 8 this week. Here they are in no particular order of preference.

1.  Girlie Ghost Cute little tutorial on how to make this sweet ghost using scrapbook paper. Clever.

3. My Colors Quiet Book What a great way to use up those scraps of fabric in your stash! I can't bear to throw them away either.

4. The Button Stop A wonderful little shop on etsy who specializes in handmade buttons. I am always looking for that special button that just finishes the project. They have awesome buttons, handpainted on recycled wood.

6. Lace Doily Lamp Now you could use Grandma's doilies, buy some ready made or be really adventurous and make your own so the lamp reflects you! I don't crochet but this project makes me wish I did. How-to instructions are included.
