me, little cryings, and pinterest

So Pinterest is pretty fun, guys. 

I'm trying to avoid making a "My Style" board so it doesn't all morph into simply a "I want, I want, I want, I want, I want" kind of deal for me. I know myself and I know that I can easily focus on what I wish I had in my closet or how I wish I looked different. Not a very productive or happy thing. So it's a fine line, but I think if kept under control, Pinterest could serve to be a great resource...

for creativity- especially the kind of creativity that can help me be a better, more engaged mom for little cryings. 

(I see some great and messy art play time in our future.)

But until little cryings is a toddler, Pinterest is also giving me some great ideas of ways I can still be a creative mommy right now. 

I'm hoping to bust out my miiiiinimal sewing skills soon and make a soft-bodied doll like this one.

These little turbans look like the perfect alternative to those huge flower headbands.

And maybe, just maybe, something similar to this could be possible.

Happy Friday!
