The Robin’s Nest Creative had me at PINEAPPLE! Giggle Giggle! The Robin’s Nest is most famous for their HIGH QUALITY and EXTENSIVE variety of DEW DROPS! If you are not familiar with Dew Drops – they are a flat -backed acrylic bead used to enhance many different types of arts and crafts. They come in a TON of colours and shapes. Add no weight to projects and add that WOW! factor. If you haven’t tried them – NOW IS the time. Recently The Robin’s Nest came out with adorable Creative Dew Drop Canvases.

Sweater weather has already arrived and maybe you are here reading this blog with a warm cup of coffee but we all know that nothing can feel warmer than our “Home, Sweet Home” in this weather with little touches of The Robin’s Nest Dewdrops! I love Fall. The gorgeous colors of fall have always inspired me to incorporate those colors on my projects.
