Monster Cookie Dough Brownies from A BaJillian Recipes, On Rockwood Lane

Monster Cookie Dough Brownies from A BaJillian Recipes:

These brownies have the best of four worlds – delicious brownie bottom, PEANUT BUTTER cookie dough (counts as two!), and a thick, gooey chocolate ganache on top! Holy cow, need I say more? Also seems like a pretty quick make looking at the recipe.

Crystal Bracelet C618 from Fire Mountain Gems, On Rockwood Lane

Crystal Bracelet C618 from Fire Mountain Gems (Free Jewelry DIY with Photo Tutorial):

I was actually just talking with a friend about wanting to make some crocheted tube bracelets when I saw this one pop into my inbox. While it’s not crocheted, it still takes on that tubular shape that intrigues me. It’s actually hand stitched with a variation of the right angle weave. Unlike many other gallery designs from Fire Mountain Gem, this one includes a photo tutorial so you can create your own! Score!

Dinosaur Terrarium for Kids from Crafts by Courtney, On Rockwood Lane

Dinosaur Terrarium for Kids from Crafts by Courtney:

Terrariums are so popular right now! I just love this variation perfect for a kid’s room! Looks super easy to put together, and customize with your little one.

Mud Cloth Inspired Throw (Free Crochet Pattern) from Red Heart Yarns/Yarnspirations, On Rockwood Lane

Mud Cloth Inspired Throw (Free Crochet Pattern) from Red Heart Yarns/Yarnspirations:

This blanket pattern was been out for a while now, and every time, I look at it, and look at it. It so interesting with the mix of prints! You could even work up a smaller variation to turn into a pillow and/or wall art!

How to Make a Weighted Blanket (Free Sewing Pattern with Photos) from Cutesy Crafts, On Rockwood Lane

How to Make a Weighted Blanket (Free Sewing Pattern with Photos) from Cutesy Crafts:

I have heard of weighted blankets in the past, but never really paid much attention until this blanket. There are tiny pellets added throughout the blanket to make it heavy. I am intrigued by the idea of the heavy blankets helping to give better rest. Now, I feel like I NEED one of these to try out! The photos really make it look quite easy to sew up, but a little time consuming.

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.

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!
