I’m kind of in love with anything watercolor right now. The soft colors are just so fresh and springy to me. I was experimenting one afternoon with different patterns and colors and thought they would make pretty magnets. I have to say, I love how they turned out!

When I came across this bright and intriguing wreath on Pinterest, I had to do a double take. A wreath made of egg cartons? Genius! After heading over to the corresponding blogfor directions, I thought, What an easy project and one that my son will enjoy creating, too. Sound the buzzer. Wrong! But in the end, it was such a cute wreath and a present I’m sure oma (grandma) will enjoy : ]

Lovesome.I was hanging some of my son’s artwork on the refrigerator the other day and realized we were out of magnets. Then, I realized that most of the magnets we do have are chip clips, and while they function great, they just aren’t cute! So with magnets on the brain, this little project was born. It’s quick and easy, and adds some fun to the kitchen, so let’s get started!

I don’t know about you, ThinkCrafts readers, but I am totally on-board with the bunting/garland craze that’s happening in the DIY and decorating worlds right now. In the past few months I have made several garlands, and they just add such a lovely touch of whimsy to my space.
This project idea came to me very suddenly and broke me out of a creative dry-spell I had been in. Sometimes you just need a quick and fun DIY that costs practically nothing, and this is exactly that. I had all the supplies on hand, and chances are you will have a lot of them to if you craft pretty regularly. Well, you may need to go grab some paint chips. I love crafting with paint chips. Gotta love free supplies!
