Hello Out There!

Hello out there, Crafting World!

I'm very excited to blog about some of my favorite things!

You'll find that I enjoy almost every kind of crafting. Here are some of my creations, upcycles, and redesigns. I hope you visit often because I'll be showing some of my latest projects here often.

Have fun and Happy Crafting!

I loved our towels so much, but I couldn't find a picture or painting that I liked for the bathroom. I photocopied one of the towels and framed it!

I saw some framed leaves and flowers, and I thought they were beautiful. I didn't want to pay the $10 for each one, so I made my own using the cards they sold at the same store.

I hate doing laundry, so I thought I'd give the laundry room some pizzaz to make it more fun. I love the drying rack, but I still don't enjoy doing the laundry.

My husband thought this was silly; I thought it was whimsical.

I gave this lamp a "suede" look using brown paint, yellow paint, and SARAN wrap!

I also did the SARAN wrap thing on two other tables like these. They were a yucky yellow "marble" color before.

I made this at an Enrichment Night a couple of years ago. It was my first try at "destressing."

I sewed the paisley pillows and covered up old ones.

I upcycled a flannel baby receiving blanket my son loves into a ribbon or "taggie" blanket.

Here was my son's blanket before.

This is the one I made for my daugher- also using a blanket she loved.

Here are the materials I used for the blanket.
