For
the last two months I have been working on something that I am SO
excited to share. For those of you who have followed me for a while you
know that I love creating and crafting. For some time now I have been
dreaming of opening an ETSY shop to share this love. After brainstorming
with a dear friend of mine I decide to share my love of felt poms, and
as a result Kindred Design Company was born!! I started with Pom
garlands and it quickly expanded to making baby mobiles and wall
banners. Guys, I am having SO much fun with this. It has been the little
extra something I needed for myself. I have already met some pretty
sweet ladies in the process and having others share in my excitement
when I post a new item just give me all the good feels :)
So check out my ETSY shop or follow me on Instagram at Kindred Design Company!
In
other news I am back to work full-time so my time to do my own thing is
even more limited, but I will always hop on here every so often to
update and share new fun things we are doing. I totally lived it up with
the boys before I went back to work, making sure we saw all of our
buddies for play dates and did lots of fun summer outings. Max and I
went strawberry picking we went for mid-afternoon ice cream cones, we
visited the library and parks galore.
I can honestly say I had the best
time with my little boys before heading back to the busy world of being a
full-time workin’ mama outside the home. Luckily, the transition from
being with my 24/7 to being without me for the most of the week has gone
well. The boys are doing so well in their care giving settings which
have allowed me to ease back to work without the stress and anxiety I
had when I started imagining how it would go a few months back. Yay!!
For you crafty mamas, here are a few summer crafts we did before the craziness started!
Alphabet Ice Cream Sprinkles
I found these adorable printables from Modernpreschool.com. Max LOVED this activity, likely because he was allowed to eat sprinkles before noon ;)
Pom-popsicles
Give
them some glitter glue and poms and let them go nuts! I love crafts
that have simple supplies but keeps them busy for a while.
Nature Scavenger Hunt
Max
and one of his little friends had a ball running along a nature path
searching for treasures to put in their bags. This also encouraged them
to look around them and explore different parts of nature, as opposed to
following on my heels and asking when snack time was :)
Thanks for stopping by!
