Gettin' Crafty

The list of blogs that I'm following seems to grow everyday. But there are so many out there with such great (and do-able!) ideas. In the latest posting on Inchmark Journal, Brooke described this fun little Valentine's Day project that I just had to try. My little girl helped me choose some fun papers, and I picked up some little match boxes at the grocery store. Here's my sewing table, set up with all the things my kiddos and I will need...I'll let you check out her tutorial if you're interested. But here's our finished product-- an adorable little box perfectly sized for holding some yummy m&ms. Ours probably won't turn out as perfectly as hers, but then again, I never worked for Martha Stewart, either.

Update: Here's how they turned out-- it was so much fun to watch my little girl debate which patterns would look good together and delight as I praised her choices. We'll definitely be doing this project again!
