There are so many bloggers who inspire me. I am especially drawn to the bloggers who are also moms. Being a first time mama, I love reading through other maker moms blog archives for inspiration and ideas for what types of activities and projects to make or set up for my daughter. Handmade Charlotte, Mer Mag, Babble Dabble Do, MollyMoo, Meri Cherry, My Cakies, Smile and Wave and Making Nice in the Midwest are all daily reads for me!
Thanks so much for stopping by and sharing your creative tips for kids Niamh! That duct tape bag is awesome and such a clever way to use duct tape. And I totally get having to set up office space for kids. Mine are always interested in my emails and you've set up such a beautiful spot for your daughter. I read on your blog that you'll be taking a short break from blogging, but hopefully not for long since we love your projects! At least the archives are still there to dig into past creative ideas :) Thanks again for sharing your blog with us!
