Friday Etsy Finds and a Weekend Project

Here is friday again! The weekend is here and this weekend around town it’s a big one. Game Day from ESPN is in town to cover the Notre Dame game. Everyone is talking about it! There’s always lots of traffic over home game weekends, but this weekend there seems to be twice the traffic. So, I think I’ll stay in this weekend and work on some fun projects.

I just downloaded the new Pantone Spring 2012 Fashion Color Guide and am SO EXCITED to create with these beautiful colors. When I say excited, I mean OVER THE MOON excited.

Look at those colors! PRETTY!

So you are probably wondering what I am going to try to do with these fabulous new color collection… hmmm.

I know! There’s lots of fabric contests on Spoonflower that I’ve been wanting to enter. They have one for a 2013 Calendar-inspired tea towel contest. That’s the one I have been watching for, but I just saw that the deadline is Tuesday of next week! YIKES! I better get something done this weekend so I can enter the contest.

Take a look at all the talent that entered the contest last year! There’s A LOT of talent out there. But, I love to design, I love to design tea towels and I love a great challenge! So, here we go!!

So, while I’m busy designing… here’s a brillant Etsy Treasury that caught my eye this week! So many great handmade artisians, I hope you will consider shopping on Etsy this holiday season to look for beautiful, unique gifts to give those you love.
