In crafting there are no mistakes, just unique creations. — Sizzix
Crafting is my happy place. If you’re my soul sister, then jump in. You’ll find all sorts of DIY craft ideas for adults and kids – everything from colored wooden bead garlands to upcycling pre-loved furniture and amazing homecoming mums, I’ll share step by step tutorials so you can see what worked for me – and what didn’t – and don’t be shy to share your results!
“Hey, what are we making this year for our Christmas presents?” Each year, me and my bestie in Ohio, virtually make similar gifts to give to all our friends and family. “Mosaic tile ornaments,” because Molly’s always up on the trends. “Um, say what?” Me, not on Tik...
Bitten by the travel wees bug, I decided to make my own for our next Craft Exchange. Here are pics and a description of the process.
I’m a total Van Gogh! Let me count how many painting classes I’ve taken. I have reindeer, unicorns, homemade signs... Most have found their way into my attic as their permanent home (because I’m really no Van Gogh), and that’s OKAY because the fun is in the process...
I recently hosted a virtual scavenger hunt, and one of the items I had on their list to find was a July 4th wreath. My client was reviewing the list before the event and focused in on it, “Really, that’s a thing? Who even has that?!” “Um… I do?” I replied, cautiously...
Y’alllllll dollar store crafts are THE best. I love a good DIY that you can put together as a great knockoff from a major retailer for a fraction of the cost. So let me just put this out there – this was NOT my idea. I have this thing called Craft Exchange that I...
Don’t give in to store bought Valentine’s Day cards for your kids to give to their classmates this year! Instead, spend some one-on-one time with your children making fun, creative and unique cards while at the same time imparting the importance of “giving”. The...
This post is in partnership with Design and Mine. Jennifer and Morgan hosted me to showcase their amazing studio, fun creations and regular workshops. All opinions are my own. Scroll through my Instagram feed, and you’ll see that I follow several accounts that are...
I am a brand ambassador for Oriental Trading and partnered with them for this post. They supplied the lanterns, all opinions are my own. You’d be hard pressed NOT to find a selection of lanterns in your local home design store these days. Versatile and easy to...
This post is in partnership and is hosted by Sew Fun Studios, however all opinions are my own. Summer is coming to a close. I can’t believe the blur of camps and play dates and poolside fun is ending soon. My girl is a busy bee from June – August, mostly with athletic...
I like to get my vinyl on. Specifically, my vinyl Silhouette Cameo projects on. And sometimes when I post projects, I feel a little guilty because I know not everyone HAS a Silhouette to play with at home --but now, anyone has access to one. The new Makers on Main in...
Do you love this Wonder Woman wine glass I made for Mother’s Day? It was “super” easy and everyone in the Justice League is sure to want one. Here’s what you need and where I got my supplies: Wine Glass – Dollar Tree Blue Glitter – This is from a set of Martha Stewart...
Girl, you know it's Easter this weekend! Are you ready? Are you? I was on KTEN in Denison this morning with anchor Gregg Watson and we were getting the low-down on last minute bunny issues. Specifically, how to step up your Easter table quick like a ... well you get...
A little in love with these miniature apothecary jars. Maybe a lot in love with them. I ordered a dozen of them as a tiny treat for the teachers for Valentines Day. I thought they'd be perfect to hold some heart shaped candy. Aren't they cute? And because I can't...
I’m really into glass these days. Glass gifts, that is. A couple of years ago, I made these lighted glass blocks as our “gift” for the year. They went over really well but there’s only so many glass bricks you can give before people are tired of hauling them up to...
