U Dream It Vinyl Design

Idaho appears to be home to many a talented people. And one of those people would be Ashlee. She's a stay at home mom with four cute kids who has started her own vinyl business. It's not something she does just to make some extra money here and there, but it's something she just loves to do. They do say to make money doing what you love, and she has done just that.

Her designs are endless and she is continuously trying to come up with new ones. She has holidays, celebrations, religious, games, and so much more covered in her library of options. Ashlee is always up for a challenge in her vinyl designs, taking custom orders and doing her best to meet the expectations that come with them. She also used different mediums to display the actual vinyl designs - plates, tile, glass, and more. Basically, if someone can come up with an idea, she can create it.

For those looking for some fun and different options for vinyl decorations, swing by Ashlee's blog and check out her work. There is likely to be something to be appreciated. And she doesn't have something specific, send her a request and let her try to create it for you.

A Little Tipsy

Meet Michelle - busy stay at home mom of a cute little boy and up to her neck in projects. With all she has going on, it comes as no surprise she falls victim to her own clumsiness. She has taken her human side, all of her projects, and her desire to share her great ideas (her own and the ones she stumbles across), and has compiled it all in her blog, A Little Tipsy.

Michelle provides tips, advice, and projects on her blog that cover quite a lot of topics. She has ideas for children, church (LDS/Mormon), organization, cleaning, recipes, holidays, and more. There are a few parts of her personal life she shares here and there which helps her readers relate to still just being a normal person rather than the "super mom" she is likely labeled. With so much information, it's very easy to find something that suits just about anyone. Michelle also welcomes any tips from those who have some to share so feel free to contact her.

For all moms trying to find tips about how to stay on top of things at home, how to entertain kids, and any other number of topics, this is a great blog to stop in and take a good look around. Just don't spend too much time browsing so you can start working on some of those projects.

My Crafting Wishlist

For those who love to do crafts and wish you had more time to do them, meet Anne. She represents you well. Originally from the U.S., Anne currently lived in England and is still getting used to all of the changes that come with moving across an ocean. She has an eye for fun and unique craft ideas that she accumulates and posts on her blog My Crafting Wishlist.

As a lover of things that have their own special flair, Anne has found a way to celebrate ideas that might seem a little odd to some but very original and worthwhile to others. Some are things that most of people have seen - rice bag warmers, homemade soaps, handmade stamps, etc. - while others you don't see every day - greenhouses and lamps made from light bulbs, various types of binding methods, pop-up doll houses, and more. She has the source information linked to each item posted so anyone can create whatever catches their eye.

If you're trying to find some fresh ideas on simple and interesting craft options, go see what Anne has been able to gather so far. And if you have any ideas that she could appreciate, feel free to share them with her as well.

Thinkin' Crafty

Alaska resident and preschool teacher, Brittany, has a very traditional and country style. She also has a love for making things and offering her crafts to others. Her style and love are combined wonderfully in her blog Thinkin' Crafty. She also has a blog background blog called Brat's Scraps.

On Thinkin' Crafty, there is a variety of ideas offered including holiday decorations and organization helpers. There are different themes presented for some of the specific crafts, such as for how to display family birthdays - great outdoors, cowboys, and school themes are all on display. Brittany encourages the sharing of ideas and tries to help provide inspiration for others with similar styles. She does put some of her crafts up for sale as well in case there are others who like her ideas but either lack the time or talent to put them together themselves.

For all those who love country and traditional types of crafts, please venture on over to Thinkin' Crafty and see what Brittany has to offer. And let her know if any of her crafts provide you with help or ideas for your own projects.

She's Crafty!

The author of this blog, Rachelle, does it all! She started the blog as a way to cope with severe postpartum depression after the birth of her first child. She found doing various types of crafts helped her overcome her depression and wanted to share her experience with others in case they found themselves in similar situations.

As for the content of her blog, she's got it ALL covered. If there's a way to be crafty, she does it - everything from your usual scrapbooking and photography to furniture refurbishing and wood crafts to fashion and baby ideas. Her labeling approach is fairly specific which makes it easy to find ideas. There are some very unique ideas all throughout her blog so I recommend spending some time looking around.

Rachelle also has an online store where she sells nursing covers called Charlie Cloths. They're a little different than your average nursing covers because you can actually see your baby while he or she nurses. And one more thing she likes to do is feature some of her other favorite blogs. It seems like crafters stick together and like to celebrate each other's work, and she's no different. So take a look, get some ideas, and let's support She's Crafty!
