Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday! Last week's first party back after a month's break was truly hopping, so thanks so much to all of you who remembered to join me again here in 2016! In past years it has taken a few weeks for the regulars to trickle back to the party, but not this year, we started off with a bang, which hopefully is a sign of a very creative year to come!
At last week's party there were some truly great projects, which I am so happy to share with you, and I hope you'll be inspired to go out and create something uniquely yours, whether it be some sweet embroidery, a wood veneer lampshade, some up-cycled jeans gift tags or something knit, crocheted or sewn.Get to work!
On that note, here are the features from last week's party:

Chimichurri sauce from a dish of daily life and a simple pasta dish from honey and birch that one can always whip up for unexpected guests! That is it for the features, sorry kids, no dessert this week posting all those photos of sugar loaded desserts just isn't in keeping with the lifestyle choices I'm trying to make at the moment, so I figured I'd just ignore them! And now it is time for you to share your creativity, what have you been up to?
