I love craftgawker

I am sure that I am slightly behind the times, but this year I have discovered, and then recently rediscovered, craftgawker.  Basically, if you need a heavy duty dose of inspiration, this is the place to go.

Oh, and you are out and about with a few minutes to spare and you have an iPhone?  No problem...there is an iPhone app!

A few of the things I found for inspiration....

I think I will make some of these for gift wrapping for the holidays at abeautifulmess.

And maybe some holiday hair-dos....found at thefirstlime.

Or this crazy cute mug cozy over at Simply Notable.

I hope this helps you find all kinds of crazy inspiration!

Recycling never looked so good!

A couple of weeks ago I got a hair to work on some recycled gift wrapping projects.  With a little help from other online crafters, I came up with these pretty ditties!

What package is complete without a bow? This one is in earth tones....from a cosmo magazine.

And from the same magazine, a gift bow with blues and purples.  See how to make these at Green Eyed Monster.

I also bought a plate from my little Cricut cutter that makes gift tags.  These are from a 70's Vogue magazine!

And what to put them in?  How about these stylish little gift bags made from newspaper, magazine and more! Find the tutorial here.

Happy Saturday, all!
