Nice Things

Winter has arrived in Cincinnati, and we've spent most of the weekend iced in.  I'm not a big fan of the cold weather, but it is nice to have a chance to catch up on some work, get some things organized (I FINALLY took holiday decorations down!), and of course, do some crafting.  Here's some creative inspiration for your weekend!

1.  Find pretty printable valentines at Love vs. Design:

2.  Learn how easy it is to customize your camera with this Chevron Holga Camera DIY at A Beautiful Mess:

3.  Stitch up adorable penguin plushies with a pattern from The Purl Bee:

4.  I love anything Portlandia-related (seriously, if you haven't watched it, stop what you are doing and start now), including this awesome pattern from Subversive Cross Stitch:

{via Craft}

5.  Elizabeth at Delightfully Tacky shared some great thrifting tips last week:

6.  Make a summer-camp-chic friendship bracelet with LA's Arrow Bracelet Tutorial on Freckled Nest:
