<br />
Sometimes I like to stumble while 'watching' football or when I have a little bit of time to kill. It can be a real time waster, because it sucks me into all of my favorite types of sites...Photography, crafting, recipes....but I can also save my favorite stuff to return to later when I have more time or I just need some inspiration. Also it keeps me in check on what I really want to look at without cluttering up my bookmarks, (I need to organize the bookmark tab on my computer, so much randomness!)<br />
<br />
Anyway.<br />
<br />
Here are some of my most recent finds. I think you will like them!<br />

The instructions that i found in the box, weren't great :( So i thought i would surch on the internet, but couldn't really find a great instruction their either (except pictures from pretty flowers that we're made with the flowerloom). Finally a few days ago i found this great video over at Martha Stuarts blog and i could start making flowers. If you like to watch that video click <a href="http://www.marthastewart.com/article/straw-flowers-lilly-pulitzer">HERE.</a> This is the flowerloom that i have:<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4pEGUgKczQQuGu_V0s-CGXQROpgY2dXaghlDIhOOMUiBFvZHNSn_nX6MKnrmF2_lgpF1x0fh1V7VRQLVubbbH-k8qAv24jGCTEESNcGIMFp_IKvvYof04k0jyisSRPk4icxyLxtk8/s1600/352230051+15-58-23.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4pEGUgKczQQuGu_V0s-CGXQROpgY2dXaghlDIhOOMUiBFvZHNSn_nX6MKnrmF2_lgpF1x0fh1V7VRQLVubbbH-k8qAv24jGCTEESNcGIMFp_IKvvYof04k0jyisSRPk4icxyLxtk8/s320/352230051+15-58-23.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5533096375497850978" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhERUEUgfnPenu77Bft95xry2tuCSqIJ9gJPi22eRiHaNYcKOLbpQz6mTQUPlHVcdvUgH-q-5UA4pVRZxlo7z_olLYk9pWyVMbJYYZ8M8j-JBb4Dm3gy_sDqJ9KPOllkLfyZv7LIqjZ/s1600/cathy_flowerloom_class.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 308px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhERUEUgfnPenu77Bft95xry2tuCSqIJ9gJPi22eRiHaNYcKOLbpQz6mTQUPlHVcdvUgH-q-5UA4pVRZxlo7z_olLYk9pWyVMbJYYZ8M8j-JBb4Dm3gy_sDqJ9KPOllkLfyZv7LIqjZ/s320/cathy_flowerloom_class.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5533096372153451778" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">found <a href="http://blog.craftzine.com/archive/2009/02/cathy_of_california_flower_loo.html">here</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhV36BCgQv8hVWBoEeFZSCDoSaJEkuh0wf84lPc_v_DQYIssNJWEPZDnwRPXOlu09N-uxDiQuy8i1H0EXr_uD7x8NOHyVEEvCIGHd3rxHcP4yF5TIRxsNC5Cics1mIDeKX2IcLdrIwI/s1600/P1050081.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhV36BCgQv8hVWBoEeFZSCDoSaJEkuh0wf84lPc_v_DQYIssNJWEPZDnwRPXOlu09N-uxDiQuy8i1H0EXr_uD7x8NOHyVEEvCIGHd3rxHcP4yF5TIRxsNC5Cics1mIDeKX2IcLdrIwI/s320/P1050081.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5533096363137662290" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">ta da... and these are my first three!!</div><div style="text-align: center;">Once you get started it's really addictive ;)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">The flowerloom is cheap and so so cute!</div><div style="text-align: center;">Just a perfect gift for yourself or for the </div><div style="text-align: center;">upcoming holidays ;)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Have fun!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">XO.

<br />
Last winter I taught a class about color mixing using frosting...I made up red, yellow and blue frosting for each student and let them mix the colors on a plate and then spread the frosting on to wafer cookies. It was super fun!!<br />
<br />
When I got home I had a bunch of left over frosting so I decided to make some cupcakes. And then I had a fun photo shoot!!<br />
<br />
Wouldn't these be great for a party? <br />

<br />
Recently I decided to go on a quest to find an app for my computer that would allow me to make little videos for my blog.<br />
<br />
I came across a free download called <a href="http://web.mac.com/philipp.brendel/Software/FrameByFrame.html">FrameByFrame.</a> It is super fun!!<br />
<br />
I want to go back and add some music to this little movie, but it is fun like this....<br />

<br />It’s a happy thoughts journal where you can store your happy memories….</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-278" title="happy 1" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-1-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 1" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>What you'll need:</p> <p>A journal</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-279" title="happy 2" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-2-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 2" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>I chose a mini album with a “window” at the front side</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-3.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-280" title="happy 3" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-3-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 3" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>and blank white pages inside!
<br />But you choose your kind of journal.
<br />You will also need some cute fabric and decoration material (like ribbons etc), things that make you happy (photos….)!</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-4.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-281" title="happy 4" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-4-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 4" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>First, lay your journal on the fabric and trace the outlines.</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-5.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-282" title="happy 5" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-5-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 5" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>I decided to only use fabric to cover the front side of my journal.</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-6.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-283" title="happy 6" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-6-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 6" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>The tricky thing about my journal was the “window” – I traced the outlines of it too and then cut an X from one side to the other.</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-7.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-284" title="happy 7" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-7-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 7" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>I used glue to fix the fabric to the inside of the front page.</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-8.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-285" title="happy 8" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-8-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 8" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>See?</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-9.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-286" title="happy 9" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-9-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 9" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>Now that the fabric is fixed to the inside of the “window”, use glue again to fix the overlaying fabric to the inside.</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-10.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-287" title="happy 10" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-10-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 10" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>You need to fold the right side of the fabric so the spiral binding can still be used.</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-11.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-288" title="happy 11" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-11-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 11" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-12.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-289" title="happy 12" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-12-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 12" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>Start decorating the outside of your pretty journal <3</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-13.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-290" title="happy 13" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-13-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 13" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>I used a cute leather-flower-decoration ribbon</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-14.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-291" title="happy 14" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-14-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 14" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>and Alphabet stickers.</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-15.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-292" title="happy 15" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-15-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 15" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>It says HAPPY <img src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" class="wp-smiley" /> </p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-16.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-293" title="happy 16" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-16-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 16" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>I thought, some decoration on the window would be pretty.</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-17.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-294" title="happy 17" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-17-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 17" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>So I printed out a pretty picture and glued it to the window</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-18.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-295" title="happy 18" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-18-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 18" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>Then, I glued the first page of the journal to it.</p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-19.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-296" title="happy 19" src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happy-19-300x225.jpg" alt="happy 19" height="225" width="300" /></a></p> <p>Isn’t that pretty?! <img src="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" /> </p> <p><a href="http://www.toastkawaii.com/wp-content/uploads/happyjournal21.jpg"><img

<p>Now, onto the pages….Start making this journal your own and add some pretty decoation and pictures and colourful paper!</p> <p><a

If you are looking for a fun kid-craft to do together, or to make for a gift, consider making something like this using remnants or fabric scraps for all the details. I am absolutely in love with these!!<br />
<br />
They would be great in a dorm room too!!<br />
<br />
I didn't make these, but they are certainly in my inspiration file.

I came up with super easy 5 BUN style that was super easy and fun.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjul3c7MVWO2OgD8k54vWPz1fDaaDrtmZvIxtw304yqzJeikhlIigcF9UdlqHOvlt5UitCYUl3VXnjUFmq_n3y5-cPGieTJ9bM3pjegc3ei70pV7wsJIHDlxtN8aw58byzK7JOypr_wk1o/s1600/Photo+646.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjul3c7MVWO2OgD8k54vWPz1fDaaDrtmZvIxtw304yqzJeikhlIigcF9UdlqHOvlt5UitCYUl3VXnjUFmq_n3y5-cPGieTJ9bM3pjegc3ei70pV7wsJIHDlxtN8aw58byzK7JOypr_wk1o/s400/Photo+646.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />
This hairstyle is great because it is perfect for a vintage dress, casual outfit or you could even wear it out for an elegant up-do. My favorite part about it, if the weather gets really humid or rainy and you've got a tiny bit of curl to your hair from the moisture in the air, you can save a limp, raggy-looking style with this quick fix-up.<br />

I like to use this hairstyle when my hair is really wavy or curly from rain/going to bed with damp hair/or just otherwise in need of taming!<br />
<br />
You will need:<br />
Curling iron, or slightly curled hair<br />
bobby pins-lots!<br />
rubberband/ponytail holder<br />
hairspray<br />
hand mirror and regular mirror<br />
maybe a comb or brush<br />

I can show you the steps by taking pictures from every folding step, but instead i've found a little video on youtube :) Above there is a little Dutch, but the whole video is without words, so just join in! For the ones that are advanced at folding is also found the drawing step by step version. For those of you who are thinkin' that folding a boat is boring, you should check out the pictures that i found! You can make these with your kids, they really float, you can use them as decoration, as a birtday treat, as a name tag on the table or just put your french fries in it when you're having a bbq.
