From the Land of Blog

Happy Friday!

It's time for another installment of "FROM THE LAND OF BLOG". This is the feature in which I show off some of YOUR projects inspired by some of mine! What do we have here? Let's see...

First up, Amy from During Quiet Time notified me of her gorgeous mod podged container shortly after I blogged this project. Look at how pretty it is? I really think her eye for detail is dead-on: the apple, the bow! Doesn't it just make you want to save that plastic container you trashed only yesterday, and mod podge away? Well go save it already. I'll wait.

The second submission comes courtesy of Lindsay from Diary of a Crafty Lady. She made these shabby chic patchwork throw pillow covers after seeing this post. What a great project Lindsay! This is the perfect craft for using up fabric scraps. Just fit the scraps together like a puzzle and make your own unique and funky-looking cushions.

And finally, NetNoe who blogs over at Art Perspective sent me this email just the other day in response to my recent butter knife post:

"Dear Michele, thank you for showing me the glory of the butter knife. I used it recently on a card I made: Coat Thank You Card. In order to get straight lines without errors (and subsequent refolding), I used a ruler to draw my fold lines, to make the folds against the pressed butter knife. Thank you. :)"

Notice I've strategically revealed only itty bits of the various projects. Conniving little me... That's to encourage you to visit the bloggers who've actually made them. I've provided all the links for you to be able to click away with ease. Do check them out, won't you?

A warm thank you to Amy, Lindsay and NetNoe for letting me know of your delightful projects. You give me a sense that I'm doing something good over here, and I'm so grateful for that.

And if you yourself have crafted a craft inspired by something you've seen on Michele Made Me, please don't be shy. Let me know. I won't have a problem shouting it from the rooftops!

Now have yourself a lovely weekend. I'll see you again soon!
