friday link love: August 26th, 2011

Those of us on the east coast of the US are prepping for Hurricane Irene this weekend (don’t worry, Travis, Crusher & I have lots of water, food, first aid, etc — we will stay safe), but I still managed to get you a great group of links this week. woohoo!

• Those adorable unicorn cookies seen above are from The Decorated Cookie.
• You may have already seen this before, but it is too wacky not to share: Creative dog grooming by Sandy Paws. I like the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle grooming style the best.
• A review of The World’s Smallest Post Service craft kit on Craft Critique.
• And speaking of postal mail, did you know you can send real postcards featuring your Instagram photos straight from your phone with Postagram?
• How to make glittery Galaxy Play Dough.
• More glitter: How to make glitter tape from Pugly Pixel.
• A new-to-me craft blog: Sew Country Chick.
• So bizarre in the best way: CSI Miami-themed cupcakes, complete with tiny crime scene decorations.
• Too cool! Han Solo in carbonite ice cube molds. I love Han!
• Be green this Halloween. October 8th is National Costume Swap Day.
• And because it wouldn’t be a link love without an insane dessert recipe: Cookies and Cream Brownie Cookies.

Everybody be safe this weekend!
