Friday Favorites: a sewing font, a DIY blogger, and more

This is NOT a sponsored post! Just sharing amazing things I love.
Friday Favorites May 29
Hey friends, I am excited that I get to share my Friday Favorites with you today.  This week I have discovered some fun sewing dingbats/font, an empowering song, an essential for those using a hot glue gun and a great DIY blog!


TAILORING by Woodcutter
1. I am a font lover…maybe Font Snob might be a more appropriate title.  Either way, I love to scour the internet for new fonts and dingbats.  That being said, I would thrilled when I came across this Tailoring Font by Woodcutter at Dafont.com.  Dingbats are great for some many reasons, but I love to send them to my Silhouette and cut the shapes out of vinyl.  I am going to use one of the old sewing machine silhouettes as a stencil for an upcoming project…coming soon!

FIGHT SONG rachel platten2.  You know those songs you can listen to over and over again and each time you listen to it you feel empowered?  Lately, I have been battling some anxiety and not feeling “enough”.  One particularly bad day  Fight Song by Rachel Platten came on the radio and I LOVED it.  I felt like it was written just for me. When the song ended I instantly downloaded it and now it is on repeat on my iTunes.  Fight Song helps me feel a renewed desire to fight through the tough stuff and it reminds me I can do hard things and come out triumphant.  Oh and it’s a great song to have on your exercise/running playlist!

Finger Caps by Mod Podge

3. Did you guys see the 2-minute craft video we did last week?  Ya know, the one where Kari gets hot glue on her finger nail? If you look really close you can see a pink thimble-like thing called a Hot Glue Finger Cap from Mod Podge.  This AMAZING device is used to protect your fingers from those horrible hot glue burns. I can promise the finger caps REALLY work!  I have used them for a couple of months now and won’t use the hot glue gun without them.  I am sure you noticed that Kari didn’t use the finger cap in the video, but got the Lace Bow done in less than two minutes. 🙂

The Kim Six Fix

4. Lastly for Friday Favorites, I wanted to share a fun DIY blog with you called The Kim Six Fix.  Kim has everything from kids crafts and home decor to recipes and sewing tutorials.  She made a Painted Cross Stitch Peg Board to die for!  I absolutely love all the inspiration.  The Kim Six Fix is definitely a blog to follow!

We would love to hear from you.  What favorites have you discovered this week?
