Magazine - Finally...

First, let me start with telling you that I have created a facebook page for Love the Blue Bird. So, if you are on facebook, stop by and say Hi.

Second, I really hate ants. Well, outside they are okay. It's when they come inside that I don't care for the little buggers. And a few days ago, because of the warmer weather, they have started to come inside. I am not happy about this...

But, I am happy to have finally received my copy of the Mollie Makes magazine that has my crocheted mason jar cover in it. I feel like my post is "a day late and a dollar short" because the magazine came out a month ago. But, they said they would send me a copy and I didn't want to go and buy one because I would really rather use that $12.00 to buy yarn instead, you know?

My page... 

I love these cross stitch tops...

 

 So happy to see this...

I love buttons...

And this is the cutest thing. Now I wish I had a stool to cover...

I can't tell you how happy I am about my plants. Every evening I go out and water and care for them. They are growing and changing daily. One of my little tomatoes plants doesn't look so good though. I moved the pot to an area where it doesn't get so much sun, hopefully it will do better... 

New geranium flowers and my Anaheim Chili...

 My zucchini plant. Everyday I look at it, it has new leaves...

These little snails are every where right now. But, they are so cute...

Published - I've Been Published...

I have been so excited about this for almost a month. - it's been very hard to keep it in until now...

The editors at Mollie Makes magazine came across my blog here and loved my mason jar cover, contacted me and asked to publish it in their magazine. Well, if you remember, I first learned about the magazine after watching this video and totally fell in love with it.

Mollie Makes is a fabulous UK crafting magazine with beautiful pages to inspire any crafter. The magazine can be purchased in craft stores - I've seen it in my local Joann's - or ordered online here. You can even download it for your iPad here. You can also see their blog and sign-up for the newsletter here.

In the magazines own words:

‘Mollie Makes is published thirteen times a year. We curate the best craft from around the world into a tactile, collectable and totally irresistible magazine.

We love to make – handmade is more than just a hobby for us, it’s in everything we do. 

We can’t resist hunting down treasures in thrift stores, then customising, re-covering and embellishing our finds with our endless stash of ribbons, buttons, fabrics and felt.

We’re forever on the lookout for new inspiration. Whatever we do, we’re living and loving handmade.’
