{one} cactus pin cushion.

Adorable! cactus pincushion DIY (click through for tutorial)

{via A Beautiful Mess}

oh my word. cactus pin cushions? I think I need to make these stat! I have been doing a lot of sewing recently & still have a few projects lined up, so corralling pins has been on my mind. I get so much use out of this sewing machine pin cushion I made a few years ago, but these are wonderful. plus, they are cute décor, so they could sit on your desk or sewing table without screaming “pin cushion!”

for years I have loved (& needed) huge handbags. partly because I have this fear of not having something that I need (so I carry around everything!), partly because I was commuting & away from home, & party because I am petite & the bigger the bag the better, right? but, after feeling like I schlep around everything but the kitchen sink in my “diaper” bag these days (though I have downsized considerably & it is lovely!) I am ready to minimize. enter this beaut from Lo & Sons: The Pearl. it is a small bag with lots of inner pockets, & converts to a cross-body bag, a wrist-bag, or a clutch. plus it is leather & plus it is on sale!

{three} children’s art table.

Oh Joy / DIY Kid's Art Table

{via Oh Joy blog}

we have a little while before eloise will be able to sit in a chair & do art, but I am loving this mini art table! the table top has a magnetic strip in the middle to hold magnets & pictures & things, & the rest of the table is chalkboard. I don’t anticipate having a lot of eloise-sized furniture (since she will grow so quickly!) but I do really love this little table set.

what are you loving this week?
