Featured Etsy Shop: Max & Olivia

My featured Etsy shop today is 'Max & Olivia'. I recently purchased supplies from this lovely shop for Emmy's birthday party. I spent so much time looking through the beautiful photos in the shop before making my decision of getting some wooden utensils and brown craft bags for party favors. 

I recommended the shop to my friend who is having a wedding in a couple months and she's ordered some things too. 

It's a great shop and I like their tagline, 'helping you deliver happiness'. Wonderful!

DIY Pouch Sewing Tutorial

Folks, it's 6 months until Christmas! I'm really looking forward to it this year. I'm putting these DIY Pouches on my list of things to make for Christmas gifts. We try to give purposeful, useful, and non-wasteful gifts in our family and I think these will be put to good use. I love the patterns and colour blocking that How About Orange used in the pouches above. See the original tutorial here.

DIY Stamp tutorial

I love this tutorial from Crafts Tuts+. They'll teach you how to make your own stamps and make your own tea towels. This would be such a lovely gift for a wedding, mom, sister, friend, house warming, etc.!
