personalized name block

I learned how to make this last week at a family reunion, isn't is cute? I have a cousin who is all about crafts, just like me! So, all of the girl cousins got to do a craft every day. This one was my favorite :) When I got home, I went out to home depot and got some 2x4, took it home, and cut it up. (this is a little different from what I made at the family reunion) This plain old piece of wood turned into this:

Isn't it cute??? I love it! I put in in Caroline's room and it matches PERFECTLY! I forgot to take pictures of the process, but I will try to do a step by step tutorial later.

Birthdays?

Anyone have a girl that is having a birthday party soon? Need a cute invitation? Go see my etsy shop! I have quite a few adorable party invitations for just $1.75. Spread the word! Go check them out here. Below is just one of them :)

flower pens

These cute flower pens make a great gift for anyone! Or even keep them for yourself. I have always wanted to learn how to make these and now I have :) Head over to Crazy Craft World to get the tutorial!

clip holder

Do you need somewhere to keep all of your clips? Well, I have came up with a cute, and easy idea! I sell clips at my local dance studio that I teach ar and needed to keep them organized! This was just perfect and would work great to hang up on the wall in your own home :)

First, buy a plain white canvas from a craft store (I got this at Michaels) and paint it whatever color you want with acrylic paint... I think it would also be really cute to cover with fabric! But, I needed to get this done quickly, so paint would work the best for me.

Now, hot glue or staple thick ribbon to the back (hot glue works the best in my opinion) and get it tight, but not too tight, you want the clips to be able to grip on.

This is what the front should look like. (sorry, this picture is sideways)

Or this... This one is bigger because it holds the silk flower clips that are much larger.

This is the very end, finished result with the silk flower clips. For some reason, some of the white rhinestones look yellowish. Oh well!

p.s. If you do this, please blog about it and leave me a comment so I can link over and see yours!

mailing anything anytime soon???

Want to mail something (like a gift) to someone, and still have it look like its wrapped up? Well now you can, without having to buy an ugly yellow padded envelope! Sew Sweet Stitches (click on the link for the tutorial) came up with this idea to make your own, cute, personalized one! I would love to do this, especially because I like to mail things... don't you think it's fun to get something in the mail??? Especially if it looks cute! Why not make someones day and send them something nice! :)

Also, Here is another thing that I like to make, and it doesn't cost anything! Do you ever run out of envelopes? Problem solved! Just print off the pattern below (click on the picture for the big size) and cut it out and follow the directions. There you go! Your own envelope :) Print it onto scrapbook paper to make it cuter.
