DIY Felt Rainbow Plush

Today is the most fun holiday because it is completely full of my favorite thing, RAINBOWS! I feel like I have been preparing for my whole life leading up to this, (have I mentioned my rainbow necklaces on here yet? It is an obsession to say the least). Anyway, a few years back I sewed my first felt rainbow ornament for my Christmas tree and it was so very fun! I enjoied layering the colors atop one another and also learning a new sewing stitch to sew it like a stuffed animal. I figured with everyone staying home this week, this could be the perfect sewing craft and you can also make a kid version one where instead of sewing you just use some glue! Let’s get it started!

DIY Soft Pretzel Mini Pillow

am a New Yorker which means I have to be a lover of soft pretzels. Moving to Boston, there are less opportunity for a soft pretzel at any moment. See as it was Mardi Gras the other day you can say that I have had them on my mind lately and really just want to eat one (I should maybe check my freezer and see if I have a frozen one in there).
