Friday Frivolities : Followers

There is nothing more exciting than logging into blogger and finding that you have new followers.  What is even better, is when you find out your followers have really cool blogs.

Today I am going to share with you three of my favourites.

Kristy from Lower Your Presser Foot

Man can this woman sew.  She 'almost' makes me believe that I could perhaps sew my own clothes some day....well maybe if I didn't own the most TERRIBLE sewing machine EVER (but that's a rant for another day).  She sews cute clothes for her adorable little girl too and isn't afraid to share with her readers when something doesn't *quite* work out the way she would have liked.  Pop on over and take a look at her blog.  I'm sure you'll be inspired as well.

Jaime is my newest blog friend and I have to say that I am jealous of her for a couple of reasons:
  1. She owns a vintage typewriter and then creates cool stuff with it
  2. She always seems to find fantastic pieces of furniture to upcycle, like this table.
She has recently been selected as a top 5 finalist for a Facebook contest for her Living Room Mantle.  Have a look at the before and after shots and if you like it, make sure you vote for her!

Wendy from Little Green Bums

I often wonder how Wendy finds the time to be creative when she has 6 kids (yep.... crazy, huh!), but sure enough she does.  The thing I like most about Wendy's creations is that a lot of them are made from repurposed items, like vintage marbles and pages from old dictionaries.

Wendy also has an Etsy store called Always Greener where she sells her unique, handcrafted pieces so swing on by and take a peek.

Enjoy your weekend!
