    Love these houses! Great job! I’ve been looking for an idea for displaying my Lori Mitchell figures. I collect the Halloween trick or treaters and they need something simple like this ! I just realized this is from last year I hope I can find something similar! Can’t wait to look! I make paper tags of my embroidery floss. I use a large paper punch, a smaller round punch to thread the floss through and the smallest hole punch that fits on binder rings. It keeps my floss looking festive and fun and organized.. Great tutorial!????????????????ReplyCancel

DIY Back-to-School Stitched Notebooks

Even though I haven’t been a student for years, I can’t get enough of the school supplies aisle when it is back to school time. I love fresh folders and binders and erasers and pens and have a real hard time exercising restraint when I see the stacks of brightly colored notebooks and highlighters move...
