Here’s a Fourth of July craft with a rustic feel! Has the string art bug bitten you yet? Yes, it is indeed making a comeback. Or were you around the last time is was a crafting craze? There was a piece of string art in my grandparents house that one of my uncles made that […]
Hi there! Earth Day encourages us to not only think about our planet’s future, our own ‘”footprints” we leave for future generations, and also how we can use less resources and recycle now! Using that as inspiration, I created a card that made me “think green” by using my own thumbprint as a focal point. […]
These fun little pom pom Easter eggs are especially fun to make as the final tool used is the same one used to keep my sweaters in tip top shape (yah there’s one of my extra special puns :)) OK but seriously, if you are as much of a pom pom fanatic as I am, […]

The most romantic day of the year is just around the corner and what better way to show your loved ones that you care than with a few Valentine’s Day crafts and recipes? Sure. Store-bought chocolates could do the trick (depending on your loved one, of course), as could those fun pop culture-themed valentines that […]
Valentine candy is a classic for a reason; everyone loves it! However, the heart shaped candy covers featuring puppies and cartoon characters leave something to be desired.
