enJOY it

an archived personal and craft blog from Elise Blaha Cripe.

Weekend46

As part of my word WHOLE this year, I want celebrate the work of others by sharing links to my friends, possible friends and complete strangers who are doing great things on the Internet. This is some of the rad stuff I recently saw online…

meditations on the joy of craft.

for my fellow ampersand fans.

"We’re still the same underneath it all." – great post on motherhood.

probably my favorite instagram feed.

I love a gift guide for dudes that's actually written by a dude.

made me laugh.

"Being in the right place at the right time and having close-up, intimate access to your family is what home photography is all about." yep.

painting with thread.

we made this tortilla soup the night before we celebrated Thanksgiving and it's a tough call what was the better meal.

on the hunt for a good puffy vest and wish this was in my size.

I put together a short video with five fun ways to use my digital stamps.

and I'm writing at the Interior Collective this month – fun to do something new.

    I just wanted to tell you that your blog is (still) my favorite and the first one I read, even on a Saturday morning. I don’t always comment (because the two-year-old isn’t as patient with my blog commenting as I’d like), but the Mama time-zone post, holiday decorating yesterday and today’s round-up were all great and I appreciate the effort you consistently put towards your work. Thanks and have a great weekend! Enjoy some good coffee!

    Here is another marquee ampersand at Michael’s for $20. In store only. My niece has one from there and it is cute.

    Love that vest. I had a great one by Halogen from nordstroms that I bought last fall- navy and not shiny and on sale for $70- which is still more than I wanted to spend. I wore it three times. I left it at my Pure Barre class and it’s never resurfaced;(((( someone else must really love it. Might have to really spurlge on this jcrew one.

    You should consider looking at tony chestnut design for a quilted vest, she is a fellow local maker in my city (winnipeg) and has a couple quilted vests you might love.
    Her Instagram account has great product photos.

    Love the instagram feed. And loved the tortilla soup. Made it last night for dinner and added chili powder and a bit of cayenne pepper — yummy!
