Earth 911 recently used a photo from my blog to illustrate one of the pages of their story, "7 Reuse Ideas for Old Jeans"! If you would like to read my original blog post, which included other crafts I made in addition to the pocket magnets they are highlighting, you will find it by clicking here.
2. Pinterest Question
It is always fun to have people find their way to my blog from other web sites. Lately, I've seen from my "stats" tab that some folks have come here via Pinterest. Does anyone know how to find out what photos have been "pinned" by someone on Pinterest? I am just curious to know what is "out there."
3. Paper Swap!
I participated in LaWendula's January paper swap, and had the good fortune to be paired with Orit of Israel. There was a "Mother Goose" theme, so I sent her several illustrations from rhyme books I have for my paper crafting, along with child-themed papers and pictures. My girls were enchanted by the idea of "Miss Orit" in Israel, and contributed various pictures they drew specifically for her.
In return, I received an envelope full of paper goodies. Here they are all spread out on the breakfast table:
My girls are still asking if they can send things to "Miss Orit," so I think they will now want to participate in all future swaps I tell them about!
If you are interested in doing a paper swap like this, check out LaWendula's paper swap site and let her know you want to get involved!
4. Spring Craft Show
I am excited to announce that I have a spot at an upcoming craft show in my area! It will be my second time to sell my paper crafts and other handmade goods to the general public; you can see the results of my first effort last November in this blog post. I will keep you posted on what will be coming out of Studio 791 as the event comes closer!
