The unseasonably warm temperatures have many of us thinking Spring already. It’s a welcome relief for us Chicagoans, considering some of us experienced a full-on blizzard last year. (Not me! See: California Dreamin’)
Sunshine days, lighter evenings, blooming tulips and nature provide perfect inspiration for Spring crafts. In addition, our craft selection has been infused with new and colorful options.
Here are a few of my favorite items…
Ladybug Clothespins
These ladybug clothespins are the perfect little adornment for your spring and summer crafts. Add as an adornment on your handmade cards or accent your home with a touch of nature. Great for hanging photographs. And oh, so cute with Baker’s Twine.
Glitter Tape
Our new glitter tape is great for DIY projects. The 3/8″ size is prefect for a variety of projects and no messy residue means this is a great option for gift wrapping accents, in place of ribbon. I especially love the Powder Blue Glitter Tape and the Pink Begonia Glitter Tape – great colors for Spring!
Craft Pennant Flag
For those of you looking for DIY Wedding projects, this new craft pennant flag has so many possibilities. It can even be used for other occasions like birthday parties. If you have a kid’s birthday party to plan, consider the craft pinwheel as another option.
Easter Cards & Crafts
If you are looking for a way to celebrate Easter with craft, then I recommend the Egg Shape Assortment Pack. The colorful egg shapes are a great base for glitter treatments, paper punches or rubber stamping. Your finished creation can easily fit into an A7 envelope too!

If you lack the time to create a handmade card, then you might appreciate our offering of single greeting cards. For the first time, we’re offering a limited assortment of Easter cards on our website. Grab one of these funny sentiments and slap a festive sticker on the back or use your self-inking stamp for decorative return addressing.

I helped my granddaughter make these. So much fun! She put one of the stripes at the top of the bunny’s head so it looked like a sweatband from the ’80’s! 😛
