See the full article on Etsy’s blog, the Storque. Toymaker Amber Dusick aka woodmouse has her wood shop in her garage in downtown LA. After the birth of her son, this one time farm girl from Minnesota became nostalgic for the toys from her past: simple, natural toys that would inspire creativity and imaginative play, made from materials that wouldn’t stick around in a landfill for thousands of years.

One of my favorite crafts to make for just about every occasion… Mother’s Day gift, Birthday gift, Anniversary gift, Hostess gift, Wedding & Baby showers…. This personalized photo album is a unique gift idea yet easy enough to be a kid craft project. Gift-giving splendor. If you are creative, your options for embellishing are limitless… if you cringe at the idea of warming-up a glue gun…never fear…. A photo in the cover’s frame and a heartfelt note inside are meaningful touches that will entirely warm the recipient’s heart. Delight in the artfulness of gift giving!

www.shalindecor.com Handmade quilts, bed quilts, quality handmade patchwork quilts, indian silk quilts, designer wedding quilts … A quilt is a type of bedding— a bed covering composed of a quilt top, a layer of batting, and a layer of fabric for backing, generally combined using the technique of quilting. Another technique for securing the quilt layers is tying. Tying refers to the technique of using thread, yarn or ribbon to pass through all three layers of the quilt at regular intervals. These “ties” hold the layers together during use and especially when the quilt is washed. This method is easier and more forgiving if the quilt is made by hand. Tied quilts are called, depending on the regional area, “lap”, “comfort” or “comforter”, among other names. Many quilts are made with decorative designs; some quilts are not used as bed covering at all, but are rather made to be hung on a wall or otherwise displayed.
