Spotofteadesigns.com 2016 Reader’s Feature

in Blogger, Wedding & Engagement

2016 Spotofteadesigns.com Reader's Feature. Photos of recreated projects and custom work seen at Spotofteadesigns.com

It totally makes my day to get an email or tagged on social and see someone has recreated something I made or was inspired by a post to do their own take on one of my creations. Last December I had the great pleasure of doing my first ever Reader’s Feature!  It included project photos submitted by followers and custom work projects I completed during the year. I decided to make it a yearly tradition and am so happy to be able to showcase another feature with more submissions!

READER’S SUBMISSIONS:

spotofteadesigns.com reader's submission - toddler painting crafts

In February we began the process of seasonal handprint/footprint crafts. Guest poster and avid SOTD reader, Sara, created our Be Mine Valentine’s cards with her sweet little granddaughter, Harper.

In March, our handprint/footprints creations continued for Easter and some of you played along! Dayna sent me her daughter’s version via Twitter!

Thank you so much for the wonderful, cute idea! Peyton and I had a great time making them! @Spotofteadesign pic.twitter.com/4bbL2ssBIK

— Dayna Tims (@DaynaTims) March 25, 2016

(Fun Fact: Dayna is my dental hygienist that told me about the wedding venue I ended up choosing for my big day since it was where she had hers! She’s a loyal SOTD follower so HI DAYNA!)

In July, I discovered this Italian blog post which created their version of my Octopus quiet book page!!! I was so honored to discover this has inspired an international follower!

Diana Elanie on Instagram tagged me with her DIY Ribbon Bouquet for her sister’s rehearsal from bridal shower ribbons! Learn how to make one here!

In October I was flattered to hear someone was making Brielle’s DIY strawberry costume for their daughter. Cindy did such a great job! Look how cute her Peyton is!

 

Happy Thanksgiving! Bright and early this morning, the girls and I finished the place cards inspired by @spotofteadesigns! Place setting: #DollarTree chargers + @lenoxusa China + Amazon napkins + @target craft supplies.

This Thanksgiving the girls created our table placecards using a fun luffa painting technique, which inspired @MrsMomNJ to create a similiar look with her kids and sponges!

In December I shared this fun snowman doughnut snack with a free printable I designed and was so excited to see it growing in popularity on Pinterest! Thanks for tagging me on this version of it used in a class holiday party!

GIFTS IN THE HOME:

A few days after the post went live Aimee sent me this photo of it already hanging up!

CUSTOM WORK:

Rebecca was a January 2016 bride who commissioned me to recreate my table numbers used for my wedding to match her locations and gold/coral colors.

I did and they looked BEAUTIFUL in her venue space!

I also made them for Kelley’s parents 50th Anniversary Party:

They looked great there too! I was so honored that these two women (plus a few more who are getting married in 2017) liked my concept enough to have me create them for their events!

Spotofteadesigns.com Reader's Feature - Betsy's Baby nursery featured a "count the waves" printable customized in her color schemes.

I kept getting inquiries about my counting waves canvas art turned digital print. In October I made one in a custom color and size for someone who found me on pinterest. Doesn’t it look cute in her blue and coral colored nursery? I now offer this option for your nursery!

Thank you to every who submitted their projects or linked to a post. It seriously makes my day whenever I’m tagged or get an email about my creations used for your special day, to hang in your home or to create with your kids. I hope to inspire more of you in 2017!

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.
