A pretty ribbon was just what I needed to top off my Crayon Roll. For how colorful it is, a simple piece of string would just not do. Word on the street is that the Easter Bunny loves to add a Crayon Roll to an Easter basket or two. by Colleen

Last Ribbon Week, we shared with you a clever way of using tic tacs to store ribbons and trims. Here’s another fun ribbon organization trick that I use here at home.

Do you remember those lovely ear warmers we posted way back when? Those were created by the very talented Delia from Delia Creates. Guess what? She’s back with her new project, Mommy Tags. These are a perfect way to remind your kids that you love them without totally smothering them in front of their friends (but then again, that is also too much fun not to do). Delia created these Mommy Tags as part of her Nesting Series while she was expecting her newest and cutest little addition, Natalie. Along with these Mommy Tags she also combined fruits and beanies to create Freshly Picked Baby Hats and made the prettiest Basket Weave Crochet Baby Blanket.
Now, I’ll cut the chatter and let Delia take over from here…

I very much enjoyed the Blue Diamond in Playa Del Carmen, and cannot recommend Ana y Jose in Tulum highly enough. Definitely spend an afternoon on Cozumel taking an off-the-beaten path food tour with Cozumel Chef. Oh, and relax… (more…)
