Arts & Crafts: Stenciled Animal Mugs

My current obsession is dreaming about becoming a farm girl --- chucking my city life and living with chickens and sunflowers.   Now - to be honest, I don't really think this is ever going to happen.  That's what Pinterest Boards are for.  I have one called 'My Country Life' -- check it out!!

But - until I get this whole idea of "country girl" out of my head, I really think I want to make some of these DARLING animal mugs!  Too cute. 

The good folks over at Country Living Magazine give you all the details, stencils and how-to steps. Available stencils include; sheep , pigs, and cows. {OH MY!} 

Supply List: 

  • Contact Paper
  • Pencil
  • Stencil
  • White Mugs (available at lots of thrift and craft stores)
  • Dishwasher-safe PermEnamel paint (via JoAnn Fabrics)
  • Small craft paint brushes or sponge 

 Hey Presto -- super cute!  {NOTE -- mugs should dry / set for 10 days before wash & use}.  

{PS -- I think these could be really cute on any number of white dishes, dish towels or even cute kitchen art posters}

Pictures of the Day: 'The Detective' 

Hey Gang --- I saw something today and fell completely head over heels in love.  

Bri Emery of Design Love Fest published her next "dream job" series, 'The Detective' and it's amazing.  I love everything about it.  The styling, the fashion, the THEME.  Brings out MY inner Nancy Drew too.  

If you haven't been following along in her series, make sure you do.  They are fabulous.

Books {and Magazines} On The Radar - A List 

Hi Kids .... It's been awhile since I put together a list of books I'm reading or readings on the radar.  So, I thought I would put together a list of books & magazines that I am currently reading / or looking forward too.

Credits ~ A Year of Pies: A Seasonal Tour of Baked Home Pies by Ashley English; Rachel's Irish Family Food by Rachel Allen; Mad Hungry Cravings by Lucinda Scala Quinn; Country in the City by Liz Bauwens 

Lastly - a few of my current magazine reads.  There are SO many amazing periodicals out there right now.  So, whether you are all about the e-read or still love the print version (which I really do)... here's a few that might be new to you. Unfortunately, a few of these are UK based magazines and little harder to find & cost a little more.  I have to admit, I'm addicted to magazines from England.

So, I hope you find something new to add to your reading collection --- happy reading!
