Little Potato House Boxes

One of the first people I ever "met" through blogging was Sunghee. She creates wonderful templates and is so imaginative. She can take one template and make a dozen different things. So I was really happy when she opened her store "Little Potato House." I decided to try a couple of her templates for boxes for Halloween goodies.

This one is made from her Animal Box Car template. I decided not to put the wheels on as I plan to fill it with goodies and ship this off to someone. I hope it doesn't get too banged up in the packing box.

I love the detailed lid of this--the scallops and the corners. It comes with a plain lid too. It's easy to assemble in minutes but doesn't the lid look so fancy?

This box is her Book Shop Card Box. I made the larger one and it actually is pretty big. I was able to fit a small pouch, a couple of bookmarks and a little board book with still more room to spare.

I love the lid of this one too. It's detailed but still easy to put together.

Thank you Sunghee for creating such fun templates, and for sharing your ideas! You are one thoughtful and generous friend!

I think these are the last of my Halloween projects. Hopefully I'll be able to move on to Christmas projects this weekend. I'm hoping my PTI order comes tomorrow--lots of fun new things to play with.

Thanks for reading and have a great weekend!

I second that! The boxes are so cute (as opposed to "coot"! I had a little somebody who wanted to see what I was doing on the computer.

nuts and bolts

Hello! Today I'll be sharing the last amigurumi I made during my crochet frenzy. I haven't been crocheting much recently except for this one little project I'm kind of procrastinating with. I really do love this last one because I think it came out really cute. This is a little crocheted robot designed by Bubblegum Belles . You can find the pattern HERE . Sometimes I purchase the patterns especially if they are really cute. But a lot of designers do list their patterns for free too on their blogs so I always check to see if they have a blog or not. It's also important to read their pattern listing too if you are purchasing to see whether they are for personal use or also for commercial use. Here is a different view of him. Happy that he is able to sit on his bottom. I actually cut out 2 felt hearts using a heart die, blanket stitched them together, and then hot glued the heart to the robot. I tried stitching one h...

Snowman gift card holder

Hi! I was planning to post this last night but I was just too tired to write or think of complete sentences. It's been a busy week with the boys on Fall break and still trying to finish up a bunch of crafts. I have been trying to make some crocheted crafts to put in my Etsy shop and finally I'm done with one. It's a crocheted snowman that can hold a gift card or anything actually that is small enough to fit in the pouch. The pattern is designed by ChiWei Ranck of One Dog Woof and can be found HERE . Here's the little snowman with his arms folded over in the front to look like he is hugging the card. I added this fun card that I stamped. You can definitely add in a gift card too behind this card. The gift card reaches under his nose. This is how the little opening of the pouch looks. I hope I can make more of these little guys. These would be so cute for teachers and I think it would be easy to put a little wire throug...

Perfect Paper Crafting & Laura My Mind's Eye Pam Jenny Eva (Me!) Roxie Recently, I saw these layering tags dies and thought I really wanted those. I love the look of layered tags so I used my Perfect Layers rulers to make some with My Mind's Eye Happy Haunting papers. I have a tag die from Papertrey Ink so I used that as my smaller tag. I glued that tag onto kraft cardstock and used my ruler to cut a 1/8th inch border aro...
