Creative Craft Round Up

Lindsay has a set of free cold weather SVG files over at Artsy-Fartsy Mama. These are fun for many projects including embellished hoodies and wall art. Drop by and see! When we lived in Spain, we had to walk everywhere so I learned how to dress warmly. Our apartment had a boiler which operated from…

Check out this fun set of crafty stocking stuffers by Antonella at White House Crafts. I know, I know, Christmas is over…it’s time for Decluttering and Spring! Well, these projects are suitable for year round gifting. They’d also be fun crafts for youth groups or a craft party among friends. Drop by for inspiration!

Love this cute set of Hot Wheels ornaments from Laura Kelly of Me And My Inklings. She had several ideas for different ornaments. They’re simple to pull together and would be fun to make several for last minute gifts. I found myself checking out the single Hot Wheels cars in Family Dollar. They were reasonably…

Gah! The pressure’s on! I have a couple of “gotta make” projects that I put off for one reason or another and they need to be completed THIS WEEK! Wish me luck…or, if you know a Christmas Elf who’s willing to complete my sewing instead of making shoes, send him my way 🙂 Over at…

Freezer meals are a great way to keep your food goals while navigating a hectic season. When I was a single mom I found they helped my little family eat healthier. I preferred a style called Once A Month Cooking. But freezer cooking can be as simple as cooking double portions and freezing the extras….

It’s hard to believe this week’s party is on DECEMBER FIRST! Where did the year go? I feel like I have little time for crafting these days. That’s why I appreciate a quick and easy craft like these rosemary wreaths from Laura over at Me and My Inklings. These are an easy way to add…

Ann from The Apple Street Cottage shared an easy way to turn a piece of vintage jewelry and a bit of satin into a pretty Christmas ornament. I love the simplicity of this project. Just a dollar store ornament for the base, some scrap fabric, a bit of lace and something shiny. It doesn’t have…

I am intrigued by these individual Pumpkin Pecan Butter Boards from Jenna at The Painted Apron. She’s created an attractive table scape to showcase this year’s entertaining trend. This is something my family would love! Jenna served her butter boards with sliced apples, savory crackers and shortbread cookies. You probably know Jenna shares lots of…

Heather of Artsy Karma shared a method for making a button mobile. She ended up with an attractive display. Heather had buttons in her craft stash. I’d have to purchase some to make a project like this. I’m reminded of a time my Nana shared her button box with me. Like many from her generation,…

Niky from the House on Silverado shared a post on updating old fall décor with paint. Drop by and check out her tips for creating a trove of copper colored pumpkins. They look wonderful! I like this idea of repurposing old decorations to create a new, fashionable look.
