First Feature for TAGS!

Cheryl is a CHEMICAL ENGINEER mama that has let her crafty side blossom! Check out her darling birthday party where she used...

I can think of more than one person in my family that would ADORE these! Not to mention being able to keep your OWN drink safe from second-sippers. I love that it is not too overdone and is an amazing statement. We are thrilled to have Cheryl on our Design Team and can't wait to see more of here amazing ideas come to fruition!

Tags! They're a HIT!

I love paper products. Almost like a sickness. I love to buy them and store them and then have to buy MORE paper products to ORGANIZE the paper products I haven't used yet. I think they mix something into the paper. Something addictive...like diet coke.

So, it just happens that I am LOVING these new tags.

I used these ones for organizing! One tag/bucket per child- these fit perfectly on my stairs. They will sit during the day as a catch-all for each child's things and then at the end of the day, they can take them up to their rooms to empty them.

With so many holidays, weddings and showers- I've been utilizing them as a way to keep everyone's cute-but-the-same-looking drinks safe from spit swapping.

I plan on putting a cute little "Thank you" of some sort for an upcoming wedding.

I'm thinking an advent calendar- different tags for different holidays, maybe?

Maybe make some cute bookmarks for my daughters reading group?

Maybe just put them in a cute bag and store them in a cute bin....

How about you...what would you do with them?

Nikki's Niche- Buckle-Up Bracelets!

Top o' the morning! I wanted to explore a couple of different options with the Buckle-Up Bracelets...just to spark your imagination!

For the first braclet- I chose white, I used some purple washi tape- which you can purchase in our store.

I laid the bracelet right down the center of the tape and wrapped the bracelet as best as I could.

The were still edges not quite laying flat...I wanted it to adhere, but not get sticky later and not be a total mess to apply....so I opted for clear fingernail polish.

I layered it- putting down the first layer and waiting until it got tacky...then pressing any edges sticking up back down and then coating it will a second layer of polish.

Then I just let it dry.

Second option:

I used a large cabochon I had left over from another project...

 Here it is in relation to a small cabochon you'd get in one of our assortments.

 I used a hot glue gun and a small piece of felt to secure the cabochon to the bracelet.

 Taking pictures with one hand proved to be a bit tricky....

Option 3:

I had some fabric flowers...added a shoe clip....

 Added the bucklet bracelet....

 And you're done!

So here were three, quick, easy and customizable bracelet options to apply to YOUR Buckle-Up Bracelets!

Okay...I couldn't resist one more. I put three together and made a cute headband...

 You can control the size simply buy taking more in on each side. 

 There you have MY take on these fun little belt-like buckle bracelets!

Our First Guest Feature: Mom's Crafty Space!

Heidi's Felt Bow Buckle-Up Bracelet 

is a COMPLETE winner!  We are so thrilled that:

1) It's Incredibly Darling and

Morena's Corner- Buckle-Up with some TWILL Tape!

Morena is the gal that everyone wants as their best friend. I'm convinced.

She's crafty and inspired and a WAAAY cute mom of FOUR!

Here's a tutorial she sent to us...when Courtney and I opened it we both freaked out! {Seperately and then together.} We hadn't even DREAMED about doing anything like this with these cute bracelets. We've been happily wearing them...daringly, 3-at-a-time!

So check her out and then stop by her blog...she has a TON more there!

This fun little belt cost me less than $2 to make!

My secret?

Mindy Mae's Market!

I started with two buckle bracelets and twill ribbon, all from MMM.

Cut the bracelets in half.

Use E6000 to glue the bracelets to the ends of the ribbon, as pictured above.

I let mine dry for a day and then I hand stitched where they overlap, just to reinforce it (not pictured).

I wrapped coordinating ribbon to finish the belt. I folded the edge under and hand stitched the trim to hold it in place.

It's such a fun, colorful belt to wear this summer! And, of course, I made more than one. I even made headbands with the same concept. Won't you visit my corner to see more fast, frugal, FABULOUS tutorials?

{Buckle-Up Bracelets will also be featured on Groopdealz 6/2/12}
