Fresh Summer Watermelon Doily Craft

Vintage doilies make a great surface to give a colorful new look to for summer and the watermelon color scheme is just perfect for the round shape of this classic home accent piece.

Metallic Monogram Painted Rocks – Because Your Mom Rocks!

May 23, 2020 by Stefanie Girard Leave a Comment

April 9, 2019 by Stefanie Girard Leave a Comment

There’s no reason for signage to ever be ugly…especially if you are even remotely crafty. I did a little looking at stores for a Beware of Dog sign, and they were just so ugly. I did a bit of research online and people came up with some super cute sayings, but for the most part, […]
