Hey crafty people! Are you ready for a new week of great links AND a fabulous goody giveaway?!?! Today I'm excited to share something new coming to your favorite sewing & crafting stores: Packaged Pellon Products!
Pellon, is the maker of "The Magic in the Middle" materials like stabilizers, battings and fusible webs that are a sewing enthusiast's best friends. For apparel, embroidery, decor, crafts and quilting these are the products that give your projects professional polish and durability.
I've used their products in many of my bags, kid's items and home projects, but wasn't familiar with all the different materials and their uses until I found out about these packaged products. They take the guesswork out of finding the right supplies for making your projects turn out perfectly. You can quickly and easily see how to use these items from their straightforward packaging:
Looking for something to fuse materials together? Check out the Pellon Wonder-Under® items. Working on some clothing and need to strengthen cuffs, collars, etc? Try the Fusible Sheerweight. Want to give machine embroidery a go? Grab some Stitch-N-Tear! Got some scraps of batting? Use the Batting & Seam Tape to join them together for a bigger project. Even if you're not sure what you need, Pellon has made it simple to figure it out. They're even color-coded by project type. Endless possibilities!!

Since I'm fresh from my glitter cottage creating, I really loved these glitter lollipop ornaments from Brown Paper Packages:
Want some real sweet treats? Check out this fondant penguin tutorial from Fowl Single File. Beyond cute AND doable.
And here's another great edible item: Oreo Christmas Trees from Lady with the Red Rocker:
And for those of us with small kids - check out this genius Play Felt Tree (to keep them away from the real thing) from Johnny In A Dress.
The Kids Can Craft party's "Pick of the Week" was Happy Whimsical Hearts flower peg people. A cute little creation for the kids to make - would make some adorable Christmas elves!
