About a year ago, I found a water bottle at Walmart that spoke to me on a deep, emotional level.  it had a paisley floral pattern in hues of blue and green, and in a pink box outlined in gold, it read simply “Not My Problem.”  And for only $5, I couldn’t pass up the… Continue reading Personalized Tumblers

Summer Paper Banner

It’s that time of year again!  Time for the final installment of my paper banner.  When I think of summer, I think of flip flops and deliciously cool popsicles (my favorite flavor is orange). So I decided that’s what I’d make! I sketched out the shapes for the flip flops and the popsicles on scrapbook… Continue reading Summer Paper Banner

Much like I am in real life, I am consistently late on these blog posts.  But, hey, at least I’m consistent? Anyway, with summer coming up quickly and with it, open-window season, I wanted to make something for the lovely birds in my yard.  Well, more for the cats, but the birds get a free… Continue reading Teacup Bird Feeder

It’s finally spring time here in the Midwest!  Well, more like summer lately with the heat, but no seasons can ever be clear-cut here.

Today’s craft is something that I have never done and would not have attempted to do without assistance.  My fiance, Matt, has been weaving since college.  He once turned his dorm bed into a giant loom just for the sake of seeing if he could do it. (He did.  He made a massive scarf.) Matt… Continue reading Woven Wall Decor

It has been a week!  I know I’m late with this post, and for that I apologize.  My brother-in-law made an impromptu appearance, so we wanted to maximize our time with him. This craft wasn’t what I was originally planning to make, but Michael’s didn’t have the items I needed in stock, so I switched… Continue reading Gilded Cat Trinket Dish

Cross Stitch Key Chains

I recently started branching out in terms of the mediums I cross stitched on.  For Christmas, I made a key chain for a good friend of mine.  I used plastic canvas for the first time.  I ended up having to make the dang thing over again because I cut the plastic too close and the… Continue reading Cross Stitch Key Chains

In the middle of decluttering and rearranging my craft room, my art journal has gone into hiding. So I got a little artsy in my regular journal. #journal #journaling #creativejournaling #journalingisart
