Poshmama Article Crafty Moms make great bloggers!



Browsing blogs is a fun pastime. And browsing craft and handmade blogs is MY favorite pastime minus the obvious (lol). This week I am dedicating this article to one artist. Kimmy Steckler has an Etsy shop ksteckler.etsy.com but it was her blog that truly caught my eye. A blend of family & fun, her blog exudes a talented artist & great mom.

The pieces below can be purchased at her Etsy shop, but trust me, reading her blog will make you smile. :) She uses a mixture of new fabric with recycled & vintage to create everything from toys & clothes to home decor - you name it - she can make it! It's not just her craft that will keep you hooked, just search her blog from cover to cover and you will see its her humor, family pics and fun ideas that really draw you in to a world of crafty fun & flair.

Here are a few of her fabulous pieces(as well as the above apple):












Feel free to browse through her addiction to fabric, fun recipes for edible play dough & her creative approach to felt - a tried and true element of the art world since we were all in kindergarten cutting out our Halloween pumpkins. Kimmy has taken a simple craft and made it an art. Enjoy!

Cheers!

The Trendy Mommy Review

Oh my goodness... Thank you so much Trendy Mommy for a fabulous review! Please check out their site - you will love the great info, cool tips and fabulous set up. Here is a quote from her review:

"Refrigerators these days are full of kid drawings and invitations and if you're like my house even bills that need to be paid. I've got an assortment of kid-made magnets and some barnyard animals and the entire alphabet on my refrig...so it was super nice to receive these wonderful beautiful magnets to display on the refrig. I cleared off the top corner of the freezer door above the ice/water dispenser and have these sitting up there all by themselves! Gives me a little reminder of who I am (or who I once was) Organized, Fun, & Funky. Check them out - these little magnets come all wrapped in a cute little tin - would make a great teacher gift or a fun little pick me-up to give to friends when they're having a rough time."

Thank you again!
