I think we ALL need this playroom

Don't you agree?  I am just in total spin mode.  I don't have a room near large enough, but if I ever...hit the lottery...you can bet there will be a room in my abode just as fabulous.  Enjoy!

a play house for grown ups...

Not only would I love to be able to create a fun and free retreat for my child to play in, but I, too, would not mind escaping to this little hide away from time to time.  Isn't it lovely?

In every real man a child is hidden that wants to play.

Lil' Scribblers

Etsy is all the rage, I know.  I love it myself.  I even set up a "store" but never got around to putting any of my art listings up.  So.  It sits.

Anywho - here is another terrific etsy store!  LIL BOO & CO.

They sell fantastic chunky crayons!  That fit perfectly into the pint sized hands we all know so well. 

How much fun would your kiddo have with these?  It is an excellent way to teach your little one how to spell their name, while they color!

And they are extremely affordable, in my opinion, and would make a perfect gift.  I think these lego ones are my favorites.

Or these Lady Bug designs...

And these Roller Skate ones tug at my heart strings....oh those were the days?!?!

Hope on over and check out Lil Boo & Co.  You will not be disappointed.

Don't forget...

The possibilities are endless.  State your desire and we can create!

Sugar Plumb Tree

NOW!

Go check them out!  Sugar Plumb Tree!

Cheap and Easy

According to Prudent Baby Blog, here are directions for the Easiest. Pillow. Ever.

I must admit.  This is clever. 

And I have seen numerous, upon numerous cloth placemats that are so cool, but not neccessarily for my home.  But, turn it into a pillow?  Hello!!!!  That is catchy!  I like.

Here are some of my favorite picks for cloth placemats...

Chilewich Rectangle Swirl Print Placemat

April Cornell Indian Holiday Placemat

Pieni Unikko Oilcloth Placemat 

...so if I was gonna make some new pillows...I would totally use some of these!

Clever, very clever.  I like clever. 

It is Red Curlz Rice Baby!

Did you guess right?

It is Red Curlz Custom Rice Baby!!!

(click the link above)

She is just a doll, huh?  Ha!  Kidding.  I think she is super cute and very flapper-esque! 

The dolls hair does not quite do Red Curlz justice.  But, that would be a hard feat to accomplish!  Until you see it in person...it is hard to grasp! 

Thank you Kellie for your special gift.  I know it will be treasured for many years to come!

Do you see what I see?

Guess who arrived in the mail?

Take a guess?
