This project features two of my favorite things-words and jewelry. And it couldn’t be easier to make! Gather up some old flat bracelets and transparent tinted Duck Tape. For the first bracelet I used a promo postcard from Angry Girl. I cut the words down to the size that would fit on the bracelet. Then […]
Are you the type of person that looks at something and can see a totally different use for it? Well, clearly I am, and I’m sharing this fun repurposing of a perforated pizza tray into stitched wall art. I’ve spotted a bunch of other unusual items that incorporated stitching on them, and when I pulled […]
Gold accents seem to have been everywhere lately. From fashion and jewelry to home decor and of course crafting, the glimmer of gold works with both neutral and colorful pallettes. What looks to be a pricey finish can be easily, and often economically, achieved in your DIY paper crafting projects. Gold foil, gold leaf pens, […]
The best part of Mother’s Day isn’t really the gifts – it’s the chance for Mom and the kids to get some quality time. Sometimes the best Mother’s Day doesn’t include a fancy brunch or expensive gifts, but a thrifty stress-free activity that the family can do together. One of the most fun and rewarding […]

Maybe it’s time to—gasp—cut back on the yarn splurges? I know, this is crazy talk. But take a look at your stash. You probably have some very pretty yarn […]

I can make a mean pillow, ya’ll. But toilet paper roll crafts? Uhhh no way. At first, I was really hesitant about […]
I’m always changing up my art and color palette. After Valentine’s Day when things are all red and pink around the house and then St. Patrick’s Day when everything is green, I’m ready for some blues. This word “Art” is easy to make using scrap pieces of thin wood, a variety of paint colors, and […]
