My Favourite Pins This Week
Savoury spinach and artichoke rolls are like a portable artichoke and spinach dip, and taste completely amazing. Starting off with store-bought pizza dough, they come together really quick, too- and somehow feel really summery! Pinterest link is here, and the full recipe can be found here.
Have you ever had frozen bananas before? Somehow (possibly through magic) they taste like vanilla soft serve ice cream. Unbelievably good! THis recipe create an awesome popsicle version, with a frozen banana dipped in chocolate and drizzled with peanut butter. The best part? You only need 3 ingredients: bananas, chocolate chips, and creamy peanut butter. Pinterest link is here, and the original recipe is right here.
Ever make your own stitch markers? These would be a fun summer craft idea, especially if you lose stitch markers constantly (like I do). This tutorial is really easy and now I’m dying to try it! Pinterest link is here, and the full DIY is here.
Attention crochet lovers- look at these adorable bunny pillows! They are so sweet, and I bet kids (and some adults) would go crazy for these. And who says you have to use traditional bunny colours – blue bunnies, anyone? Free pattern, too! Pinterest link is here, and the full free pattern is here.
It’s difficult to not feel a pang of ‘success’ jealousy now and then- either professionally, personally, or even just people on instagram that look like they are having a perfect life (btw, no one is having a perfect life). This is a great approach to check that jealousy in a productive way. Pinterest link is here, and the article is here.
Have an amazing weekend, everyone! I hope there is sunshine and warm breezes wherever you are.
