February was here, and now it has packed up to leave. I hope that you found little moments last month to craft something cool and share it with others.
👇🏾Alright, here’s my monthly recap!👇🏾
Craft News
It’s the end of an era. Joann Craft Stores is fully closing. It’s totally lost for the creative community. If you have alternate stores to share, please leave the state, county, and craft store so we can create a little database. Oh, and maybe you don’t live in the United States but still have an online shop to share. Please share any online shops that can help us all in the comments section below.
It’s okay to step into new things
Folk, I did it! I was invited to speak at a faith-based conference hosted by Urban Christian Woman. I would run away from opportunities for the longest because I feared that I “wasn’t ready.” I’m here to say that I survived, and it wasn’t so bad. I did cry because I’m the queen of waterworks, but overall, I’m glad I said yes to the chance to share my testimony. If you’re on the fence about something and struggling to say yes because you don’t think you’re ready, step into it. You’ll never know if you genuinely dislike something until you try it.
✨ dani’s five Favorite Things ✨
1.Wooden Bowls are my new jam!
Oatmeal is something I love to chow down on, but I always overdo it. These cute little wooden bowls help me keep my portions in check!
2.This on-the-Go bag is the bomb.
From Disney to a quick run to the grocery store, this little bag helped me leave my heavy fanny pack behind! Now, I need one in different colors 🤪
3.Eli’s bookshelf is filling up!
This bookshelf has held all of Eli’s books for the past three years, and we are now outgrowing it. It’s a great starter bookshelf for adults and kiddos!
4.Best Ginger Candy hands down.
This ginger candy has to be my favorite of all time! And let me tell you, I have had my fair share of ginger candy, but this one has won my heart and kept me during my first trimester with Eli. If you love ginger, take a chance and try these.
5. The Dino Toothbrushing party.
We all know that brushing is important, but sometimes it’s hard to get kiddos excited to do it. I found this toothbrushing set with a cute one-minute timer, and Eli totally loves it. It can be mounted to the wall and has different character choices.
