Love to make “To Do Lists”? I do. Toodledo is a great to do list site that I have started using. It has the ability to set priorities and due dates. Now if I would just get off Toodledo and actually check things off the list I might get something done…

Stop by Burda Style for free patterns. I think you could find a free pattern for any piece of clothing you would want to add to your closet. Some great stuff there!

I decided to share with you today some great Etsy shops I’ve found. They don’t even need commenting, their shops speak for themselves.

Bloggy Giveaways is an awesome new site that I found. Lot’s of giveaways all worth $50 or more. If you have an online business it would be a great source of free advertising as well to offer a giveaway. A definite must save blog for your list.

Rocks In My Dryer is run by the same great lady who runs the Bloggy Giveaway. A very interesting blog to read. Right now she is in Africa on a Compassion International trip. I love the name of the blog too!
