Lot of fun finds this week – everything from Father’s Day to fun in the sun. Enjoy!

• Time is getting short, but here are the Round-Ups of Father’s Day projects from Craft: and Make: magazines.
• CraftyPod always has excellent crafty podcasts, but I especially like this week’s topic “Why Do You Make Things?” SIster Diane interviewed crafters at the Maker Faire and also reads some Twitter responses to the question. Twelve minutes of fun and inspiration!
• Check out CraftGossips’ picks for the Top Ten Craft Blogs on blogs.com. Do you agree with the picks? What are your picks for the top craft bogs?</li>

Two new crafty resources that I just discovered: The Craft & Hobby Association’s new website, craftplace.org and Craft Leftovers, a fun and helpful blog with a companion print zine.</li>

• Lastly, two fun in the sun summer projects: Floating Beverage Barge from Instructables and Summer Fruit Punch Bookmarks free download from Jinjerup.</ul>

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads!! xoxo
