Crafty Find...DIY Clutch for Diapers & Wipes

Here's a crafty find from The Life of a Cheap Chickadee on how to make a clutch for diapers and wipes!

Now that I don't bring a diaper bag with us everywhere anymore, this diaper clutch is the perfect size to keep a diaper or two and a pack of wipes...pretty much all we need when we go out now. It will fit in my purse, and it will keep the diaper clean and away from the pens and gloss and everything under the sun else in my purse.

Sundi shares her tutorial to make a diaper clutch, and shows how to use a few coordinating pieces of fabric and some ruffle to make it cute!

Crafty Find...DIY Roman Shades

Here's a crafty DIY project find from The Good Life for a tutorial on how to make your own roman shades!

I love love love this idea shared by Kendra on what to use along with your fabric to make your own roman shades.  It makes perfect sense, and it's great to be able to choose your own fabric for your shades. That way you can match them with your room colors/decor.

Kendra's chevron roman shade came out amazing, and it definitely saves money by making your own!

Pinners Welcome!

Hi Latest Find readers!! Today I'm sharing a button I created for The Latest Find.

I will admit to "pinning hesitation" if I am on any particular website where there are not "Pin it" buttons anywhere on the site. I see an idea or recipe I love and want to save, but I see nothing in regards to Pinterest on the website. I am left wondering, and often will decide not to pin. Some websites do not want their items/pictures pinned, and I completely respect that. 
With that said, I want to make sure that all Latest Find readers know that The Latest Find is a pinning zone, and pinning is allowed here! No worries or wondering at The Latest Find! If you see a Latest Find printable, decorating idea, or set of social media icons you want to pin, it's allowed here!

So I thought I would share these sidebar buttons with you, so that if you allow pinning, you can let your readers know. Then your readers aren't left wondering. I have one already displayed in my sidebar so you can see how it looks!

Here's a few different colors, and the code for them underneath each.
