Create




I really loved this video because I have been on a bit of a crafting kick lately. I just have this need to create! It's not always great, but it satisfies me, at least until I get the next urge.

I made this to go in the boys room. I got the idea here. Their favorite book lately is We're Going on a Bear Hunt, so I thought they would love the bear.


I found these great signs at the dollar store and didn't have much in the way of Valentine decor, so I spray painted it (of course) and made a Love sign. Simple and fun








I found the idea for these Valentines mobiles here via here. Why don't I do more fun stuff with paper? It's cheap and fun!





Joys of Home posted this idea a while back.



We made these fun valentines for card club this month. It was a blast and very yummy.



A couple of weeks ago I was having a bad day so the boys and I headed over to the dollar store. I needed something to do that offered immediate gratification (without adding to my waistline) so I saw some of this beaded trim stuff and grabbed it and made over my bedside lamp. I quite like it now. It really is the same lamp in different light. I know it looks like one of those bad before/after diet pics where you doubt it's the same person before and after. :)
