www.CreateForLess.com is where I buy most of my crafty supplies, especially my glue runners. This site also offers an incredibly large library of different craft reference books, perfect for starting a new craft or project. I could not find a book over $50, in fact most are less than $20 so you can buy several!

This handy little gadget is on my Wish List this year, just think of all the fun things you can make with it!

How perfect is this Craft Table with Paper Roll Holder and Bench for any craft space? It would also be a perfect place for the kiddos to hang out and get creative. I really, really want {no need!} this!

Have you ever visited Tea Collection? This online clothing shop for modern/hip kiddos and adults too, is not only stylish, it's surprisingly affordable with just about every item priced under $50. I just adore the print dresses for little girls.

Tea Collection
almost everything less than $50

Shh! Don't tell my soon-to-be 5 year old but Santa is bringing him a Leapster Explorer this year. Everything from Leapfrog is not only fun for kids, it's educational! The games for the Leapster Explorer are just $18.74 each and on sale now at Leapfrog.com or by clicking here.

Wow! here is an ultra-modern play idea for both boys and girls. From Toideloi is a solid wood, modular stackhouse. You can purchase the components separately. I love how each stackhouse encourages creativity because it's a virtual blank slate, meaning your child can make paper cut outs or use Army men to play inside these stack houses, whatever they happen to be "in to" for that week. The play set literally grows along with them:)

I recently got introduced to the bright, modern and fun personalized adorables from Clairebella. Click here to see her lineup of everything from iPod covers, cutting boards and more! These little coasters are just the cutest and would even make a great hostess gift or stocking stuffer.

Pillows are always a cute way to add a simple monogram and little pop of style to any room. These handmade pillows from Embroidery Collection come in a wide array of colors and designs.

I adore anything made with mother-of-pearl so this gorgeous Initial Love Bracelet from the talented women behind Waxing Poetic really caught my eye. They also make this in a pendant necklace too!

Martha Stewart's Dreamers into Doers Feature


Well, I guess you could say Christmas definitely came a few days early over here at InkSpot Workshop?

I was completely flattered when Caitlin, of Martha Stewart's Dreamers Into Doers contacted me about being their "Doer of the Week". OK, it's what prompted me to get some new head shots taken if you really want to know the truth:0 Each week I look forward to reading about the new Doers of the Week and I'm just so thrilled to be part of this group.

Thanks everyone for ALL of your support!!

Paper Wreath Tutorial

I spotted this
Loop-De-Loop Wreath
today on the
Crate Paper Blog
such a cute read you must check it out!

These would make great handmade gifts or a fun pre-Christmas winter day project to tackle with the kids. I'm also thinking it's also a great way to use up some scrap wrapping paper, scrapbook paper or even a great use for your old Christmas cards.

Click here for the full tutorial
Enjoy!
