While February always makes me think of pink hearts, loads of doilies, and romantic get-always; it also makes me think of everyone I love. This month I have recipes and projects to share; let’s celebrate those best friends forever. February also reminds me that winter is in its last throws AND it’s time to order seeds again Those photos of summer produce in my seed catalog are so inspiring. In this issue I’ll focus on small space and indoor, low light solutions. Learn how to build your own seed starting light stand, mix up your own starting soil, plan your garden, and how to compost on a small scale indoors.

In the September issue I have delved into the world of miniature crafting. It's been a blast making tiny crafts on the small scale and reminiscing about playing with my Pink Panther as a kid. Ah the adventures that 10" high pink plushie and I had.

Every summer I dream of taking a vacation and while this hasn't quite yet come true, it will soon! I'm going on vacation this summer! This issue is some of my favorite travel memories and some new ones I hope to make. I have three great contributors this month: Fanie Gregorie, Su Mwamba, and Beth Weninger! Each one sharing their own favorite travel projects and stories. Fanie has a great crafty guide to Montreal. Su has provided a great article on making your own postcards and everything you need while you are on the road. Beth has shared a great project for kiddos on the road with things that are on hand or at home during a fun summer day.

Me well, my favorite traveling snack, a clutch to hold Su's great postal kit, and a few other fun things that will definitely delight your crafty senses.
