My Life as a DIY Wannabe
I found this clever trick on Pinterest the other week from Oops I Craft My Pants and had to try it for myself: iPhone covers using scrapbook paper! Now when I had my first cell phone in high school (the old Nokia), I probably had about 15 different cell phone covers that I would switch out to [...]
While at Gordman’s a couple of weeks ago, I found this rooster bulletin board on clearance for $3. I had really wanted a small bulletin board for my {someday} craft room and thought this would be an easy project to redesign. I started by painting the base of the bulletin board red with Krylon’s Cherry [...]
As you might recall, my little 3 year old started pre-school last week (see her first day here). She’s going three days a week at a neighbor’s house and loving every minute of it! I thought I would do something special for her home classroom and kept seeing some neat school wreaths on Pinterest. LOVE that [...]
I featured this project when I guest blogged at Design Dazzle last month, but I decided to show you again just in case you missed it! As a mother of a three year old little girl with long blond hair in ringlet curls, I’m always looking for a new way to organize her hair bows. Let [...]
My sister and her hubby were in town last weekend from Chicago for a quick visit over Labor Day weekend. They just moved a couple of months ago and I wanted to create something special for her new apartment. What do you think? Pretty cute, huh? I’ll show you how I created it! I ran across [...]
Last year Missy featured this adorable birthday wreath on How Does She and I thought I would give it a whirl. Here’s the completed balloon wreath the easy instructions so you can create it on your own! First I gathered my supplies: Straw wreath still in the plastic 6-8 bags of multi-colored balloons from the [...]
I found this adorable fabric scrap wreath from One More Moore’s blog post she created back in November 2010. I thought this craft would be the perfect idea to add a little bling to my daughter’s bedroom door. So off I went to get my supplies! I purchased a metal wreath frame for $3, a [...]
While on Pinterest the other day, I ran across some super cute color-coded chore sticks from Embellish. Loved the idea, but my daughter is only three and can’t help out too much around the house. So, I decided to alter the idea a bit and help cure boredom! Here’s my Rainy Daze activity sticks! So [...]
My family finally got home from our Florida vacation late Saturday night and I already miss our lazy days at the beach. To remember our times in Panama City, I thought I would create something out of the seashells my daughter collected. So first up is a mini seashell wreath to hang on my fireplace just [...]
While at a local grocery store last week, I noticed a curly ribbon wreath out of the corner of my eye. It was extremely cute: a birthday themed decoration with shades of pink, purple, yellow and green. I would have picked it up, but the price tag said $30. Not too shabby, but I thought [...]
