We can think of so many ways to use this paintable, self-hardening Marblex Modeling Clay ($10). Make holiday decorations, quirky place card holders, beads, candleholders, vases for fake flowers (this stuff is not waterproof), and pretty much anything else you can think of.... [More]
We pretty much use our Large Circle Scallop Hole Punch ($11) every time we want to add a little tag to homemade gifts, bags of handmade caramels, and cellophane-wrapped plates of cookies. We've used it for quirky paper garlands, crafting cards, and funky gift wrapping.... [More]
Whether you're spinning your own yarn, or using the Pink Guava Wool Batt ($8) for a felting project, you'll be smitten with the bright color and soft feel of this merino wool. Try your hand at making cool felted Valentine's hearts or a felted bead... [More]
How cute is this Garden Cookies Kit ($38)? Instead of passing out mass sugar cookies for Valentine's Day, why not hand out wildflower seed cookies for your friends to plant? They'll last a lot longer and will remind your friends how awesome you are (and... [More]
Has anyone else noticed that twine is the next big thing in the crafting world? We're seeing it make its grand entrance in wrapping, entertaining, card making, cooking, and pretty much anywhere else those crafty crafters can sneak it. We're thinking it's time to get... [More]

We don't just make the best cupcakes, we make the prettiest, most sparkly ones, too! Sprinkle some edible Strawberry Disco Dust ($4) on cupcakes and cookies to add a little glitz to any baked good.... [More]
Did anyone else craft shelters for fairies and gnomes in their backyard as a kid? We remember using pine cones, pine needles, ivy, pieces of bark, and large leaves to craft cool woodland homes. We would have loved to have this Forest Gnomes Kit ($20)... [More]
If you're anything like us, your cookbooks are a mess of written notes, substitution suggestions, and other tips, so why not have some "Chef's" pencils ($10) at your disposal? They might not make you the queen of crème brûlée, or the princess of pastry, but... [More]
One of our very best childhood memories is of making dolls with our mom. (One rainy day she decided that sewing matching dolls for us and a best friend would be a fun craft.) We've thought about those dolls often, and would love to recreate... [More]
As we look around the kitchen and focus on the shabby state of our dishtowels, we feel a little embarrassed at how much our kitchen gets abused. Don't get us wrong, we love that we roll homemade meals out of it every evening and that... [More]
The sheer cuteness (that's a word, right?) of these Strawberry Cupcake Stitch Markers ($14 for 4) makes us want to take up knitting. We hear it's a relaxing and stress-relieving activity, so first we'll buy all the materials (retail therapy is also relaxing) and then... [More]
We have a sneaking suspicion that until we fully use up the edible Gold Highlighter ($6), every baked good that comes from our kitchen will look like it was touched by King Midas himself. Just mix in a little lemon extract, and you've got gold... [More]
Technically this Geometric Rolling Pin ($15 on sale) is for clay or fondant, but who's to say we can't roll out our cookies with this? We think shortbread with a cool geometric pattern would add a little extra oomph to our gift baskets.... [More]
Calling all crafters! This adorable Effie & Ollie Elephant Pattern ($9) will make you the coolest gift giver at the baby shower. Whip up a sweet little elephant for your niece for her birthday, or for your friend who's having a baby boy. Since they're... [More]
We once read this article about a lady who saved candy wrappers, store bags, newspaper clippings, tickets, cards, and any other paper or plastic with an interesting design. She'd use her cache of goodies to create cool art projects and unique graphic designs. We thought... [More]
Part decorative, part for decorating, we want the Wooden Spools Of Ribbon ($59) to reside in our crafting corner. We're already imagining all the gorgeous presents we can wrap with the luxurious satin and grosgrain. And once you've used all the original ribbon, refill the... [More]
Sure, you can keep your crafting floss on a piece of cardboard, or you can wrap it around this adorable Flossy The Pony ($12). It's all about the details, and we think this pony makes a sweet addition to your craft box. Pick up all... [More]
We would have much rather done this Paradise Lost Cross Stitch ($20) than read and dissect Milton's Paradise Lost for our Early English Lit class in college. Featuring a full menagerie of animals, unique plants, and quotes, we think this could be turned into a... [More]
If you're looking for unique ways to stamp wedding invitations (rather than the cheesy love stamps they offer at the post office), or you just want to add some special touches to thank you cards, a cool Mixed Vintage Stamps Set ($2) from The Paper... [More]
Make your own on-trend bead and braided jewelry with help from Beads and Braids by Jacqui Carey ($40). Full of pictures and step by step instructions, we're looking forward to making cool bracelets while we get our fix of watching crazy women compete for Ben... [More]
