Spot of Tea Designs’s Top 10 Posts of 2018

in Blogger, Lifestyle

The end of the year is always the time to reflect on what happened, as well as, look ahead. 2018 was a good one for my family and me, with lots of big changes, including a new house, move from preschool to kindergarten and a first family of 4 trip to Disney World! I had lots of opportunities to stage some fun party themes which were apparently a hit with some of you too!  Let’s take a stroll back through 2018 and see the top 10 posts!

Top 10 Blog Posts of 2018 | spotofteadesigns.com

My Secret Message Printable went live in November but surprisingly was the number one new post I launched in 2018! This was one of the Elf Ideas for a 5 year old which was also a top post of the year! I hope lots of kids had fun filling it out to discover this message from their elf! (and PS I already have more free printables planned out for next Christmas!)

Easter Egg hunt Disney World Reveal with free printable | spotofteadesigns.com

In January we shared our Disney World trip plans to my girls and this photo of them and the letterboard became my number one photo ever on my instagram account! While the reaction wasn’t what we expected (the activity of the reveal seemed more exciting than the prize) I can tell you the girls both had a great time in February!

Mother's Day Gift Idea: Digital silhouette portrait of all the grandkids | spotofteadesigns.com

I had created this Digital Silhouette Portrait Gift for my mom of her 5 grandkids and then added it to my Etsy shop. I had the pleasure of completing a bunch of Mother’s Day gifts from Etsy shoppers shortly there after! My shop 2 months old at that point which gave me more motivation to add additional designs. I was so honored with all those who had me create holiday gifts of their kids this Christmas.

Purse scavenger hunt game with free printable - great for baby showers and bridal showers | spotofteadesigns.com

Some highlights of what my yard produced this year Some highlights of what my yard produced this year:
🎃 Gourds - currently 42 harvested and drying, but tons more coming!
🌞 Yellow Roses - these 2 plants bloom at least 4 times in spring and summer!
🍅 Tomatoes - tons of Roma and Supersweet 100 breeds used for appetizers, sauces and salads. Happy to grow and to gift these away!
🧄 Garlic - planted last fall and harvested in June. Doing this again this October! Should I also do onions?
💜 Lavender - The bees love them. I missed the window to dry them but putting that on my list to try next year. Would you want a little satchel of lavender? 
🥒 Cucumbers - slice it up and add some sea salt. Yum!

.
Our group of 2 adults and 5 kids were hosted by TreeTopQuestPhilly and enjoyed a sunny Saturday exploring obstacles, climbing and ziplining and we'd highly recommend this park! 
.
Here some key details to know before you go:
- The staff is super knowledgable, friendly and patient with climbers of all abilities, but it is self paced where you are in control of your own equipment. 
- You attend an equipment fitting, safety instruction and practice course before you climb 
- Expect to spend the full 2.5 hours of your reservation and you likely won't need sunglasses in this shady spot
- Gloves are an optional purchase, but we didn't get them and no one got any blisters
- There are 4 levels of courses with Level 4 being for those 12+ only. It's HIGH but thrilling to those willing to check it out! 
- Porta potties and lockers are available at the check in area and there are plenty of benches and picnic tables to sit at in the park. Spectators are free to watch from below. 
.
PROMO CODE: Use code SPOTOFTEADESIGNS for 15% off your online ticket order to climb!

Cardstock pennant banner tip - create the separate Cardstock pennant banner tip - create the separate piece shown on the video and add it to the back of your pennant to help it hang more securely, hide the ribbon and not move as much when hung.

Special thanks to @wildercrafting who shared this tip YEARS ago, and I still use it when creating my simple banners.

If you're on a fence about creating a garden next If you're on a fence about creating a garden next year.... do it! While I personally don't eat everything we grow (not a pepper fan!), I do enjoy being outside, caring for the plants, and feeding friends and family!

You can start this fall with garlic! You start planting them in the fall, and you'll enjoy them by summer.
