First of all. My friend Sarah is so awesome, that upon reading my last blog post, she proceeded to bring me a copy of She & Him’s Vol. 1 CD that very night as we met to hang out/volunteer at Fill-a-Belly. Such a fun surprise!
So, on to today.
Some sweet friends came over for a day of muffins, fruit, play time, and some serious crafting! While the girls took out every toy we owned and {mostly} got along famously, the mommies got to work on an adorable Easter craft!
First the muffins… mmmmm.
Made from this recipe, with strawberries and coconut added {oh, and half wheat flour, coconut oil for butter and buttermilk for the milk/vinegar}.
Thanks to a great tutorial from maya*made, we made this super cute felt basket, that will soon be filled with a few goodies for our little sweethearts on Resurrection Day.
A couple of embellishments were added to Maya’s tutorial… embroidery on the handle and an extra piece of felt sewed inside for a little stabilization and color {my friend Stephanie’s idea!}.
Thanks to Eren for inspiring me to try Maya’s tutorial!

What did you do with the strings of buttons?
Stacey- actually, funny thing. Those strings of buttons used to be the legs and arms to a funny little doll I had sitting on my shelf as a kid. the doll is gone now but the buttons have been salvaged and now cut off the strings and put in a cute jar!
