top picks #31

beautiful kids teepee play fort handmade on etsy

There’s a saying in Minnesota that we like to talk about the weather because it’s always an extreme event. Well, this week was no exception. We can’t claim the snowfalls that Chicago had (we had that much a couple weeks ago) but the below zero temperatures are wearing me down! I want to hole up in a warm toasty cabin and ignore it all. Which is, of course, impossible. So this week’s top picks are all the things I wish I had time for right now. I’m craving the chance to make something with my hands, even though my work is keeping me too busy (but happy/busyfreelance clients is a good problem!). So why don’t you help me out and follow through with some of these ideas for me?

Plus, stop by Monday for a free downloadable giftie for all of my lovely readers! I think you’ll like it!

Love the fort idea. I have many happy memories of building forts as a child. It was usually with couch cushions, but a teepee would be just as fun.

When it comes to forts – any which way works great! But there’s something a little extra magical with a teepee in my backyard, filled with blankets and pillows and tea parties …

Must be something in the air (like snow :) ) – I’m posting about forts today too!
