Sunday Pinterest Party Featuring You

by Lindsay Ballard on May 18, 2014 58 Comments

The world has gone gaga for Pinterest.  We may use it for different reasons – recipes, DIY ideas, poses for family photos – but so many of us use it on a daily basis.  My kids have come home from school with Pinterest inspired projects, and my friends are always telling me about fun things that they saw on Pinterest.

So, here’s the deal.  I’m joining up with a group of bloggers to host a weekly Sunday Pinterest Party! These are some great gals who blog in DIY, Crafts, Food, Fashion and Parenting.  I’m really excited about it, because this isn’t the cast of expected characters around here. I’ve met some fun new gals getting ready for this, and I’m excited to branch out a little bit in my Pinterest love.

Allison from Two Thirty-Five Designs~Pinterest, Lindsay from Makely School For Girls~Pinterest, Kelly from Lily Pad Cottage~Pinterest, Adrianne from Dream Book Design~Pinterest, Jenelle from Nelle Creations~Pinterest, Sarah from Creative Ramblings~Pinterest, and Aimee from Captivating Corner~Pinterest.

Grassy Buddy - super easy kid's craft

A few weeks ago, Emma was just beside herself when I went to pick her up from preschool.  She’s always excited to see me, but today was extra special – her teacher had helped her make a Grassy Buddy at school.  Emma was so excited that she was shaking.  Even cuter?  She made it for her big brother, Zack.  Awwww!

The Grassy Buddy is essentially a kid-made chia pet.  Although Emma made this at school, I thought I’d give you the instructions so that you can do it with your own kids.  It is probably one of the easiest crafts you’ve ever helped your kids put together.  We’ll definitely be making more of them this summer, as Zack wants to make one for Emma.  🙂
