Lets Make a Mess
These felt spider mum flowers (chrysanthemums) are so easy to make. All you need is felt, scissors, and glue. What you do: 1. Cut strips of felt. I cut across the short side of a piece of felt so that the strips are 8.5 inches by 1.25 inches. You can play around with different sizes to make smaller or larger flowers. (Also, did you know that you can use a
I have been wanting to play around with embroidering onto canvases for a while now. These mini canvases are perfect for this little project and I love how my R H initials turned out. They will fit perfectly in my new little craft space. First pick a font that you like (I used Bebas Nueve), print it off of your computer, and cut it out. Because I didn’t want to
Target has this awesome new line of office supplies that are so cute and very affordable. My favorite finds were this little pink tape dispenser and this very cute washi tape. It came in sets of reds, blues, and greens. The best part is, it only cost $4 for the 4 pack. That’s the best deal on craft tape I’ve ever seen. I will probably be trying out some of
This was a really fun and simple project. I am very happy with how it turned out. All you need is scrapbook paper, glue or mod podge, scissors, and of course erasers.

Stamps are such a fun and easy way to decorate and embellish projects, like these simple stamped gift tags. Pin It What you need: Brown craft tags (Or cut your own from card stock) Flower stamp ABC stamps Ink (I love these Clearsnap Colorbox Pigment Paintbox) Ribbon or twine Each color of ink in the box separates. You can then use the pad to dab ink onto the stamp. I
I am so excited to finally have my own work space! I attached empty tea tins to the side of my shelf to use as organizers. My pens and pencils, scissors, and markers are easily within reach but they aren’t sitting on my desk taking up valuable space. Plus they look really cute. I used a level and a ruler to mark where I wanted the tins. I then attached
I used to think that homemade lemonade took forever to make. Since it has been spring here in Florida basically all winter, we decided to make some lemonade the other day. It only took about 15 minutes and it is so delicious! What you need: About 5 lemons (1 cup of lemon juice) 7 and 1/3 cups of water 1 and 1/4 cups of sugar 2 tablespoons of grenadine (optional
