Last week I started posting with Kiddie Crafts. This week I’ll be starting up what I’ll call Kitchen Crafts. Can you tell I’m feeling guilty? Trying to spend more time with my kids and cooking for my family. 🙂 Anyway, I believe that there are two kinds of people in this world… cookers and bakers. […]
Magnetic Makeup Board
I am not big on makeup or fashion, but my little sister has a ton of makeup and not a lot of space. She saw this tutorial from Laura Thoughts for a magnetic makeup board and asked if I would make her one. What do you think? This is how she used to look. Got […]
Glass Etched Ornament
Here’s a nice wedding or Christmas gift that isn’t too difficult or expensive. Made it with my Silhouette Cameo. Don’t worry, I will be doing things that don’t require the Silhouette soon. Just needed to use my new toy for gifts! 😉 It’s a beveled glass ornament etched with the Sacramento Mormon Temple, names, and […]
Fun With Glass Etching
Here’s a nice little white elephant gift or something neat for that friend of yours that has a fun sense of humor. Looks like a regular mug, you finish your drink and…. …WHAT?!?! Haha. I couldn’t resist! I found these cute glass mugs at Target for a couple dollars, used my Silhouette to cut out […]
Boy Birthday Crown and a Giveaway!
The boy version of my birthday crown is done! Just like my girl birthday crown, there are five interchangeable numbers, and it’s adjustable so your little boy can wear the same crown every year! It fits heads from 18 inches up to 21.5 inches around. I’m fresh out of baby boy models around here, so […]
Felt Birthday Crown with Interchangeable Numbers
I made a few adjustments to this birthday crown that I made for my niece, and now I am ready to show you how to make one yourself. All you need is felt, velcro, and thread and/or embroidery floss. Can you tell that I like felt a lot? The crown has interchangeable numbers and is […]
Pumpkin and Banana Bread Labels
My son’s school is having a Fall Festival this weekend, and I volunteered to bake a couple loaves of bread for their Country Kitchen Booth. They requested that the items donated be labeled with the item name and my name. I decided that sticking them into a ziplock and writing on it with a sharpie […]
Superhero and Princess Cake Pops
The kid’s birthday party has come and gone. I can’t believe I have a five year old who will be starting kindergarten in a couple of weeks! While browsing around Pinterest for party ideas, I came across these superhero valentine lollipops with masks and capes. Then I just happened to come across this AWESOME video […]
Dining Table and Chairs Makeover
I am so excited to show off what I have been working on! It took FOREVER, but I finally finished sanding, painting, and covering a dining set that we got a few months ago. Here is a wonderful before photo of the lovely peeling paint and the outdated blue fabric. Hey, it was free! Of […]
Scrabble Magnets
A little while ago, I was browsing Pinterest and saw a pin for Scrabble magnets. I pinned it, my friend Emily saw it, and gave me her old Scrabble tiles that were going to be tossed out. Thanks Emily! Well, I finally got myself to the craft store and bought a roll of magnetic tape […]
Traffic Sign Wall Hangings
I wanted to buy real traffic signs to hang in Evan’s room, but they were way out of my budget (especially since I had spent so much on the paint). Also, I don’t like the idea of hanging a sharp, heavy, metal sign over my son’s bed. So, I created these signs using foam board and freezer […]
Evan’s Room Makeover Tutorial
I’m so glad everyone likes how I painted Evan’s room with the magnetic road. I love reading all of the comments! I’ve put together this tutorial to show you what I did. To see the whole room, click here. I’m going to apologize in advance for this product heavy post. I never want to be one […]
