If you have a dog (or even a cat or bunny!) you might like this sweet Valentine themed bandana made just for them. It’s easy to make looks really cute around their fuzzy neck! My 10 year old German Shepherd, Angel, is modeling this bandana covered in heart shaped paw prints. I’m a designer for Decoart and made this bandana Read More »
I’m pretty excited to share this with you, but I have to warn you first. My craft room is in the basement. It’s not all glamourous and shiny like the ones you see featured in big magazines. It involves concrete walls, exposed plumbing, laundry machines and all the ugly things you find in a basement. It’s not pretty, but it’s Read More »
Tomorrow is the last day of school before winter break. My 17-year old daughter wanted to make something for her friends, so we decided to make the Rice Krispy Gingerbread Men from my cooking blog and I made these cute little bread tag gingerbread men to tie the bags closed. You might remember the bread tag monsters I made last Read More »

I actually started this snowman garland several weeks ago and kept getting sidetracked. I finally got back to the crafting table so I could finish this project and share it with you! I adore snowmen and seems like every year once I get in the groove, it’s time to start making Valentine’s Day crafts. Ha ha. I am actually really Read More »
First of all, this is a rare occasion. I’m a bit timid about my size, I’m overweight and very self conscious about it, so showing a picture of me like this is not something I really like to do. But this snowman shirt was too fun not to model. I should have bought a better quality shirt that didn’t look Read More »
I adore snowmen, and every year I try to make at least one new snowman ornament. This year I made these snowmen from corrugated cardboard and paint. I was inspired by a dollar store ornament that caught my eye on a blog post. I had pinned this to my “Inspiration for Knock Offs” board. The post is from Today’s Fabulous Read More »
One day I was standing in line at Walgreens and sitting right there by the register was this adorable hat. It was shaped like a top hat, the hat portion being the chimney, and Santa’s legs were sticking out of the top. The hat was musical and cute and whimsical. That immediately made me think what a cute Christmas craft Read More »
If you’ve ever wanted to try silk screening at home, there’s a new kit on the market that allows you to create your own custom designs. You can certainly buy pre-cut screen stencils as well, but I think the fun part is being able to create your own. My daughter is a senior in high school and there have been Read More »
I created this snowman pattern back in 2002 when I was pretty heavy into tole painting. I haven’t tole painted in a while, but used to do it quite a bit, and snowmen were one of my favorite subjects! I painted this onto a glass jar, but you could use any surface that you like. It would be adorable on Read More »
