I love craft fail. When I crochet two booties that don't match or sew a cape that ends up looking like a tarp, I can go to craft fail and feel the warm and fuzzy feeling of camaraderie. Even the craftiest have their dark moments, people.
PostSecret
PostSecret makes me love people again. It started with a guy named Frank who wanted to start an art project where people sent him anonymous secrets on a postcard. It blew up into a worldwide phenom. Frank has since released several books full of secrets. Frank posts secrets to his blog every Sunday. Most of the secrets don't relate to me. Every once in awhile, though, there is that one secret that I read and know that I could have written that. It's an amazing feeling to connect with people you don't even know when you realize that you feel the same pain or joy as they do. Someone somewhere in the world feels the same. Warm fuzzies!
This Guy
always makes me grin like a fool.
Baby Name Wizard
I found this site when I was pregnant with M. It is the coolest baby name site I have ever seen. I love how it shows the rise and fall of popularity of names.
Gift Elephant
Helps me remember who I've given what to and helps keep my giving organized. Since my family is HUGE this is a lifesaver of a tool for me. It also helps you keep track of gifts that you may want to "regift" to make sure you don't give them back to someone who gave them to you!
Mod Cloth
If we had a money tree in our backyard, this is where I would buy my clothes. Just go to dresses and scroll down and look at the blue and black Silhouette Dress on page one. If we had money, it would be hanging in my closet right now!
