DIY, Hand Lettering + Home Decor
Happy(?) Monday, friends! I am totally struggling to get going this week BUT sometimes a quick craft can make me feel like I’ve accomplished something with my day. I’m hoping it will help you feel the same. These leather tassels are SO simple to make and they can be done start to finish in ten …
Last summer I created these printable fish painting activity sheets for The Pinning Mama’s Summer Fun series and I’m pretty sure I’m overdue to share them here! But these aren’t just colouring sheets that you paint, I love giving them ‘magic’ scales that appear when you get to painting.
This project turned out way cuter than I’d planned! I had planned on functional, but every step I decided to add ‘a little somethin’ and those somethings ended up being really cute! Since we’ve really gotten into DIY and started amassing our own tools, we’ve started to really care about them because we realize how …
This one’s for my fellow makers, crafters and bloggers out there! I get questions about photography for crafters and bloggers all the time and I’m slooowly building up a bit of a post database for you if you’re looking to learn more about photography (specifically craft and maker photography!). I’ll link to some of the …
*sigh* I just don’t even want to talk about this one, you guys… I just want to look at it. But I promised the details… so here they go! This DIY live edge table with steel legs is the newest addition to our dining room and our DIY brag book. If you missed it- we …
I LOVE that we are finally at the fun stage of renovations, where we are getting rooms all ready and decorated. These room reveals seem to be such a long process for us since the majority of our renovations in the upstairs finished almost two years ago now, but we’ve had other big renovations in …
Let me preface by saying that this cost ME pennies because I had everything laying around. And if you have kids and you like to DIY, chances are you’ll have everything to do this too. Since we built our DIY shelving (aka that giant project that is solving our storage problems), I’ve realized I don’t …
One of the details I didn’t share in Windsor’s bedroom is this sweet little monogram that I faux embroidered! I have it stationed by the door (see below) and a photo of a wall with a closet door and a bedroom door less than a foot apart wasn’t high on the ‘pretty photos’ list to …
If you follow along on social media, you might have spotted a Q & A I did over on the Dremel Facebook page. I was so thrilled when they asked me to partner as a Dremel Maker this month to bring you a super fun tutorial. They challenged me to make something with the theme …
You guyyys! This one is a big one and it makes me so crazy happy to have it done. It’s really exciting to finally be at the stage of our renovation where we’re finishing rooms- not just bits and pieces of them. I have a few great reveals coming down the pipe… but today? Let there …
So I’m trying something new- and I really love it! I really haven’t gotten in to the coloring trend- I haven’t felt like I have ‘time’ for it and love to create by hand lettering if I’m going to sit down with my kiddos when they colour. BUT I tried making my own colouring sheet… …
If you’re a pro with a paint sprayer, you can go ahead and skip this post… because I’m talking about using it for the first time ever and you’ll learn nothing- I’m sure. BUT if you are yet to use a paint sprayer, if it’s on your wishlist, or if you’re new to using one… …
