father’s day questionnaire – free printable!

Kids say the darnedest things. I have always wanted to do one of these Father’s Day Printables with Birdie. I’m hoping that, at 6 years old, she’ll still have some funny answers. Now that I finally made one for us, I figured the least I could do is share it with all of you (even if […]

My sweet little Willow is super excited about her summer wardrobe. Honestly, if I could magically find a way to snap my fingers and wake up to a closetful of her clothes, I’d be happy too! Luckily, all you need to do to get ahold of Willow’s wardrobe (and lots of playtime fun) is head over […]

Guess what?! Mollie Makes included Smallful’s Fantastical Fox Mask in their most recent issue – Issue #53 to be exact. It’s not a huge feature, I’ll give you that, but it’s still pretty amazing to know I can go to the bookstore and see my little creation on the pages of a real, honest-to-god magazine. And […]

When you were little, did you celebrate the first of May with a neighborhood game of ding dong ditch, leaving May Day baskets with candy and flowers hanging from the doorknobs of the homes in your neighborhood?

make this: st. patrick’s day rainbow crown

All I can do is hum “Somewhere, Over the Rainbow” over and over and over when I look at this crown. I should really learn more of the words to that song – all I know is those four! Plus something about bluebirds (maybe next time I’ll add some bluebirds to the crown!) St. Patrick’s […]

new from Smallful: in the clouds mobile

I have been fascinated with mobiles since I was a kid. I remember the first time I saw Alexander Calder’s work in person – back in grade school – and being absolutely mesmerized. He developed the most amazing mobiles, and many of the modern mobiles you see now use similar balancing techniques and sometimes the same forms. I’m […]

last minute crafts – printables

Do you have lots of last minute Christmas things to take care of? I know I do. In fact, I could probably spend the next three days doing nothing but wrapping presents and baking goodies and still not have everything done that I’d hoped for! Especially if I keep taking breaks to sip hot cocoa, […]
