But since I consider myself a rebel...I'm going to break the rules!!I have a whole file on my computer of other bloggers crafts that I have loved so much...and one day when my wish comes true and I get 45 hours in a day I will hopefully make a knock off version of.

So today, sit back and get jealous.

Land of the misfit toyz made this ribbon organizer out of a shoe box. I love it. I would marry it.

Go Here for a complete how to. and while you are there....look at how she displays her headbands.

yeah, that's a paper towel roll!

These puzzle bags blow my mind! I have boxes of puzzles. I mean there is even a box in the garage. How happy I would be if I could just have these little bags to hold each puzzle. I love love love them.

This awesome space saver idea goes to sutton grace

I love this! (Okay I love everything in this post) but this is soooo cute! i am momma hear me roar made this for her playroom. A picture of each cousin doing something that starts with an S. I was thinking about doing this with the beginning letter of each of the cousins name...but we have alot of cousins...and a lot of them start with the same intial. I got to my second M and all I could think of was MOUTHY. THen I gave up. Oh, and that green polka dotted paper was just wrapping paper...so not too expensive.

mmmm. I love food. But not this food. This is just blocks of wood covered in the leftover packaging. If your kids have a kitchen this is soooo what they need! My daughter would flip for this! The only thing that has prevented me from doing this is that I don't have a clue where it would go. If I would just hurry and make those puzzle bags and free up some room!!!! This brilliant idea is making the world cuter. (and she is doing just that!)

Samster mommy made her own dress form.  BRILLIANT! This has been on my mile long list of things to buy. and she just whipped up one with stuffing and duct tape. I might have told her I loved her in the comment section of her blog when I saw this. I was very excited!

Ohhhh a floor. This is just more than a floor....this is a desk chair mat. You know those expensive plastic mats you buy so your office chair can roll around...well Brooke at makin it domestic just took some wood and covered it with some vinyl. (which comes in so many different looks!) I love this idea and so simple!!! I've got to buy me a rolly chair!

Check out these birp cloth and baby sock cupcakes

and these blanket lollipops

 

Oh, and these washcloth candies

  I am just hoping I get invited to a baby shower soon! SO cute! check out http://cuteasafox.blogspot.com/ for complete step by step!!!

Who has a cricut? better yet who doesn't have a cricut (tisk tisk...you had  better buy one soon!) I love my cricut. I found a few tips on imperfectly beautiful. One was how to make your matts sticky again. I could have kissed her. really. a big fat wet one.

 

click HERE (the above link is for other tips like buying vinyl cheap and using programs instead of buying those expensive cartridges.)

Look at this cute burger chore chart. I love this   I love this I love this.

You do a chore..you get to add that condiment to your burger buns. I could see my kids not doing something and saying...Well I don't like pickles anyway. I still love it.

child made tutorials 

And...if you are a cupcake fan.

Which I am not..but after you see these cupcakes you will be....

These magical years had a birthday and celebrated by listing *yummy* 30 cupcake recipes.

Like this giant cupcake (without buying the $25 pan)

(giant cupcake courtesy of At Second street )

mmmm. these oreo cheescakes are from handle the heat

Raspberry filled vanilla. (that means these are healthy right? raspberry is a fruit! These treats for the eyes and mouth are from tidy mom.

Okay. I have to stop...I honestly could talk about all 30 cupcakes. So good. Great. Now I'm hungry again!

Anyways, I probably have 100 more pictures of crafts to go...but I will save it for another time and another place! (okay. maybe not another place...since it will be here on my blog...but another time for sure!)
