WDORL 7: 5 Spring DIY Finds

March 15, 2021

This week’s features include how to make banana nutella cake, four ways to wear a yellow skirt for Spring, how to make a teacup wreath planter, free crochet pattern for cactus scrubby and free sewing pattern for a girl’s maxi skirt.

Spring time! Next week is my birthday! I thought about sharing some birthday DIYs but I only have a couple saved so I decided to just keep up with the fun Spring finds.

In case you missed it, check out my Clover Takeover St Patrick’s Day Nails!

And my Casual, Athleisure St Patrick’s Day Outfit!

And on my EyeLoveKnots blog, you’ll find a crochet pattern review for the Sunset Sweater, a crochet pattern review for Honey the Hedgehog and a Book Review & Giveaway.

Weekly Dose On Rockwood Lane #7:

Banana Nutella Snack Cake from Inside BruCrew Life:

I LOVE banana recipes! I don’t have any on hand, but an easy thing to pick up. And combining it with the delicious hazelnut flavor of Nutella?! Yes, please! Want to try something different? Last time I was in the Nutella aisle, I saw a cookies and cream version. Mmm!

Four Ways to Wear a Yellow Skirt for Spring from Putting Me Together:

One of my friends is head over heels in love with this yellow color, and she has lots of shirts, pants and dresses of it. Now every time I see something yellow, I think of her, and really, the color is quite pretty. Not sure if I could pull off the yellow skirt, but I really like this outfit, especially with the print top. Might need to get one to see 😉

Turn Grapevine Wreaths into a Whimsical Cup & Saucer Planter (Photo Tutorial) from Purple Hues and Me:

This cup and saucer planter is too cute! The purple flowers really pop in it too! I don’t think I have the patience to build the cup and saucer, but I am feeling inspired… Maybe I can crochet something like this with flowers I can’t kill, hehe – I don’t have much of a green thumb.

Cactus Scrubby (Free Crochet Pattern) from Whistle & Ivy:

THIS.IS.AWESOME! And it’s functional. I think this is so perfect with the texture of the scrubbie yarn, but I think I would make them just to decorate with – too pretty to use, hehe. Would make an excellent gift!

Girls Bohemian Maxi Skirt (Photo Tutorial & Free Sewing Pattern) from Scattered Thoughts of a Crafty Mom:

THAT FABRIC! I am in love! It definitely screams Spring to me, but this would be perfect any time of the year for a little girl. The fabric itself is a cotton blend, which really is perfect anytime (especially here in Florida). Make this skirt in any print, or change the length by simply cutting the pattern shorter.

Hey! I'm Alexandra, the blogger and creator behind On Rockwood Lane and EyeLoveKnots! My passion is being creative. My favorite thing to do is crochet, and you will almost always find me having a cup of coffee and working on a new crochet project, but when I'm not doing that, you might find me out at a local park rollerblading, baking some fresh cookies, picking veggies in the garden or re-decorating for a new season or holiday. My two cats are great supervisors for all my adventures (minus the being outside because they think it's too hot in Florida to be anywhere but inside), and make sure I take plenty of breaks.

Kanagawa Wave Noodle Bowl (Aff Link)

I've been shopping for a noodle bowl with chopstick holder for my niece. I really like this design.

Black OUGES Top (aff link)

Black OUGES Top (aff link)

When I received this black Ouges brand top in my September Amazon Wardrobe box, I was pretty happy. I have a similar top that I received in an earlier box that is the same brand, and I love the fit of it. I think the raglan style gives me a sort of confidence. I am a 42″ bust wearing the size Medium. There are several other colors available too!

Crocheted Lip Balm Keychain (aff link)

It's lip balm season, and these lip balm holders are excellent! They come on a swivel hook that can be attached anywhere for easy access, and to make sure you don't lost your lip balm at the bottom of your bag. I personally have one of these. The quality is great, and Candace is lovely to work with! PLUS they come in 11 colors!
