Etsy Sunday - Uncommon Kitchen!
I just recently stumbled across Omnomicom (say it with her, “nom nom nom”) and was really impressed with her article on taking better photos and the cool recipes she features!
She also has an adorable little etsy shop with vintage goodies, including this adorable set of dessert serving ware. For $15 you’ll be hard pressed to find a more whimsical way to serve Irish Coffee… And if I didn’t make a resolution to not buy everything on Etsy Sunday, I’d snap it up right now!
Tip Tuesday!

Happy New Year!
It’s a new year - a new reason to kick bad habits, to learn new things and to focus on new challenges! I don’t know about you, but I have picked up some bad crafting and blogging habits this year that I want to improve - here are a few of my resolutions:
1. Blog twice a week! We’re starting something new this year - Tip Tuesdays (where you can get some cool crafting tips with a tutorial!) and I can’t wait to get the first one ready for you guys!
2. Make a new project each week - notice I didn’t say “start.” If you’re like me at all, starting things is easy, but finishing projects is hard!
3. Keep my craft room clean - do you have dust bunnies and craft creep taking over your home too? Let’s keep it under control this year!
4. Pick projects that challenge me - I have make like 10 Birdie Slings this year, but the Liverpool Tunic scares me! Time to cut that baby and start stitching!
5. Craft with friends - to get this resolution rolling, we will starting offering potluck meetups at Sew Crafty each month! Stay tuned for dates…
What are some of your crafty resolutions? Let everybody know in the comments! Making them public might be just what you need to stay on track…
