Swap with This Blessed Nest

Hello, everyone! It is such a pleasure to be swapping with Madigan today!

My name is Amy, and my corner of the blogging world is know as Positively Splendid, a place where you’ll find me sharing about my passions for crafting, sewing, cooking, decorating and raising a family – and just about everything in between! Having three children in stair-step fashion (with one more on the way!) has prompted me to have a true passion for just about all things domestic, and my blog is a chronicle of my quest to create an inviting environment in which our love for one another can grow and flourish. I would love to have y’all stop in for a visit!

I absolutely adore upcycling and refashioning items I already have on hand to create something beautiful, and I recently did just that with a set of three ordinary diaper boxes. 

Curious to see how I did it? Head here for the full tutorial.

My Beverage Carrier Gift Totes are another of my favorite recent repurposing projects. These are a great option for a budget-friendly, handmade gift for baby and bridal showers.

Sewing is my truest creative passion. I first sat down in front of a machine three years ago, and everything I know I have learned through trial and error (and lots of long-distance phone calls to my mom!). I strive to share straightforward, thorough and easy-to-follow sewing tutorials that are perfect for those just getting their feet wet, but also for experienced sewists, too.

Head over and see my tutorial (with free patterns) for these Easter Bunny Buckets.

I refashioned a plain-Jane Old Navy fleece pullover to make this Sweet Spring Jacket, and I show you exactly how I did it in a detailed tutorial.

I hope you’ll stop by Positively Splendid to say hello! You’re welcome anytime!
