I’m starting to think recycled egg carton crafts are becoming as popular as tp tube crafts and just as cute and creative! These tiny Easter Bunnies are so cute. Really the hardest part is probably cutting the carton apart and the fun is endless with the different colors and faces you can create on them. Pop on over to the blog Red Ted Art for the tutorial on how to make recycled egg carton mini Easter bunnies.

Stitch Up Tiny Landmarks in Stamp Form
I don’t know if stamps are trending as a craft motif or maybe I’m just ahead of the game, but Pinterest has been serving me a lot of content in all sorts of craft genres having to do with stamps lately. We’re talking little stamp shaped paintings and sewing projects and, as you might image based on where you are reading this, stamp cross stitch patterns.
Maybe it’s because we’re feeling a collective loss of attention span lately and we need little, cute, satisfying crafts to get us through these long, hard days.
Or maybe the algorithm knows I’m a sucker for cute little satisfying projects.
Whatever.
One such example is this lovely little collection of 20 world landmarks stitched in stamp form. The design is from Teeny Weeny X Stitch and I’m not sure I can identify all of them off the top of my head (and the pattern listing doesn’t say), a few of them are the Eiffel Tower, Big Ben, the Taj Mahal, the pyramids in Egypt (and a Mayan pyramid, too!), Christ the Redeemer, the Statue of Liberty, the Sydney Opera House, the Colosseum, Stonehenge, the Washington Monument and the Great Wall of China.
If you can identify more of them, let me know!
Each pattern is 40 by 40 stitches and they use between 9 and 23 colors depending on the location. They come out less than 3 inches/7.6 cm when stitched on 14 count fabric.
I kind of love the whole set done as one big piece, but you could also stitch your favorites as individual projects. How cute would a little Eiffel Tower be in your scrapbook about your trip to France (if you are such a person to travel to France and keep scrapbooks)? A little Leaning Tower of Pisa made into a patch to cover a stain on a shirt? The possibilities are endless!
You can grab the pattern from Teeny Weeny X Stitch on Etsy.
