Oh Joy! I'm excited to announce the launch of the Oh Joy for Nod kids' bedding and decor collection! Inspired by Ruby and her transition to a big girl room, the collection is a limited-edition bedding and home decor line for kids. It includes baby, toddler, and kids' bedding, pillows, lamps, plush toys, rugs, and a curated collection of art to go with it all. The Sundae Best collection is inspired by Ruby's favorite food—ice cream—and how fun it would be to sleep surrounded by your favorite treat. I wanted to create an abstracted version of ice cream with sprinkle sheets and a cone-inspired pattern on the duvet. The Pattern Party collection is inspired by the shapes that kids draw when they are first learning to draw and explore their creativity. On Monday, I'll be sharing before and after photos of Ruby's room as we transformed it from a baby room to a big girl room with my new collection! {Photos by Sasha Gulish for The Land of Nod}

Make: Cut the rubber bits at the point where they come through the sole. These holes will be used for the ties around your ankles. Take a long strip (2in wide and long enough to wrap around you ankle) and knot one end. Make 2 horizontal slits on each side of the the foam sole of your flip flop. Cut 2 strips of t-shirts 3″ wide and approx. 8″ long. Stuff the strips into the incision you’ve made crossing them over the foot.

40 Twitter Hashtags for Writers by Simon Kewin If you use Twitter, you’re probably already familiar with the idea of hashtags. These are simply a way of categorizing particular tweets by including within them a keyword prefixed with the hash or “pound” (#) symbol. So, for example, tweets containing writing advice will often contain the “#writetip” tag. The point of this is to make it easier to find all tweets containing writing advice : you just search for “#writetip”. Similarly, you could find a stream of publication tips by keeping an eye on tweets with “#pubtip” in them.
