Yarn Pixie Tutu...from Bugaboo, Mini, Mr and Me

Bugaboo, Mini, Mr. and Me has the most ingenious tutorial for this Pixie Tutu using a skein of yarn and a BIG book. I love how colorful and fun this looks and can COMPLETELY see my little 'bugaboo' in one, too!

Head over and let this aspiring actress {and wonderful Mom} know what a darling tutu this IS!

Second Feature....Yarn!! Courtesy of Measure Once, Cut Twice

Cute, Cute Hilary over at Measure Once, Cut Twice submitted this cute Yarn Wrapped Jar tutorial. I thought it was rather perfect timing with back-to-school just around the corner. I'm sure we will all be trying to corral and organize many an item.

I love that it's to-the-point and completeable in under a day's time. {I need to feel productive right now!}  So hop over and say "Hi!' - the tutorial is HERE.

First Feature...Yarn! {From Renewed Upon A Dream}

Sarah from Renewed Upon A Dream submitted her tutorial for this sweet AND functional.  

Besides being FUNCTIONAL {which I love} but I really like that she used all sorts of random left-over materials. I take personal pride when I can take things that I otherwise would have thrown out and create something worth keeping- or GIVING! Take a second and take a look, you'll be glad you did!

A Confession about Make and Takes...

See this cute sign?

I have had this picture of this sign in my files since the day it was posted...May 24th, 2011. I LOVE this sign. I had EVERY intention on re-creating a sign similar to this sign. I have looked for a frame, I have acquired {and probably lost} the yarn and I was all set to get some foam and get a cuttin'.

Have I?

More than a year after this committal to myself?

Nope. Not really all that close, either.

SO. I'm gonna make this sign. Finally.

I'll let you know Friday. ;)
