It’s time again for Project Party Weekend!!!  Come link up your recent projects! I was thinking of Easter candy and these truffle eggs came to mind.  They are so elegant and perfect for Easter and springtime.  Who says that candy is just for kids??? Birds Nest Truffles Ingredients: For eggs: White Chocolate chips- 6 oz. …

Jellybean project #3!!!  Before you throw away all the leftover candy and plastic eggs from Easter check this project out! Have you ever played the game Mancala?  It is fun for the whole family!   If you were to buy a brand new wooden version it might cost around $20.00  to $30.00. I will show you …

 I’ve had this idea in my head for a while.  I love hair-bow sculptures and I thought that this would be perfect one for Easter (or anytime really)! Cross Hair-Clip What you will need: ribbon feathers hot glue satin rosette (found mine at Hobby Lobby in the bridal section with the small floral stems)  First …

 It’s time again for Project Party Weekend!!! This week I have been working on a 3 Part Series about Crafts with Jellybeans.  Yesterday was the “Jellybean Necklace”   For the second project I made “Jellybean Decor”!  I love the pastel colors that are typical with Easter Decor!  I think that it turned out great! What you …

 Chewy, fruity and gooey on the inside.  Hard candy coating on the outside.  It’s the shape and size of a kidney bean, but in all the colors of the rainbow. What is it? A Jelly Bean! Of course my favorite thing to do with them is eat them, but I found a few other ways …

Easter is just around the corner!  Easter is one of my favorite holidays because at our house we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus.  I know that Easter bunnies and chicks have very little to do with His resurrection, but since we celebrate in the spring I like to think of them as symbols of newness …

This pedicure turned out awesome!  I love the results!  My 3 year old daughter said  “They are so so stripe-i-ful!!!”  I would have to agree. I should mention that I am normally not very good at painting designs on nails. It wasn’t until I found the “deco art” line of nail polish.  It is designed …

 Confession: I love girly things! I have been carrying around the same drab gray camera bag for years and I knew it was time for a change.  I tried (thought about for a nano second) to get something gender neutral (since hubby may need to carry it) but I couldn’t pass this purse up. It …

 I was rummaging through the thrift store a few weeks ago when an idea popped up in my head.  My husband  can usually tell when I have these weird brain spasms (as I call them) because all my focus is directed on one thing! LOL!  I headed right over to the “home decor” section and …

Spring is here!  The other day I was awakened by a familiar sound of birds chirping.  It was such a refreshing sound to hear.  That was my inspiration for this Spring Blossoms Frame. Bring in a little bit of that spring cheer to an old picture frame. “Spring Blossoms Frame” what you will need: Flower …

 Romantic and elegant these Flower Cabochons are just simply gorgeous.   I have seen these around lately and wondered if there was a way to make my own.  I made these from polymer clay and they can be used for many applications…. the sky is the limit!  I stumbled upon some beautiful molds from a store …

“And all that glitters is go-uh-old… Only shooting stars break the mo-uh-old…” I wish I could capture on camera how bright and shiny these are in person!  They are so cute… my daughter couldn’t wait to put them on.  Of course they were simple to make.  Can you glue?  Can you sprinkle glitter on the …

This is the last of the Re-purposed Jeans series.  I absolutely LOVE this vest, and it was easy to make!  You could of course use any ribbon with this vest.  So Cute!!!   I didn’t plan it but EVERY tutorial I did for this series used ribbon along with the jeans… I guess I like denim …

   Could this belt be any cuter?  I love the simple/ clean look of it AND the fact that it took me less than 15 minutes to make! This would look great for a woman too… just change up the colors to your taste! I love this belt because it really accentuates the waist (in …
