Here’s a pretty project using the seashells you collected on summer vacation–make one to hold your own jewelry, or small trinkets, or make a sweet little gift for someone you love.
I have been bitten by the tassel bug, and have now gone tassel crazy. I had so much fun making tassels for the DIY Tassel Necklace, that I just had to make more. These bracelets are so much fun, wear one or two at a time, or even all of them, and I promise people are going to ask you where you got them.
I have been seeing tassels everywhere, on shoes, purses, all over home decor, EVERYWHERE! As the saying goes, if you can’t fight it, join it, and that is just what I am doing with this very easy DIY tassel necklace.
ps. I might have a tassel addiction now, so you might see tassels again soon.
I’M BACK! And I am so excited to share with you this necklace using last week’s crochet flower pattern. This project merged my two current crafting loves right now, crochet and jewelry making. Don’t let it fool you, it really isn’t that difficult to make (I think I may be getting the hang of those jump rings…finally). I LOVE how it turned out, and I hope you do too!
I was looking for a fun alternative to the typical candy valentines, without making me into that “boring” mom who “never” gives anything fun. I think these Pencil Arrow Valentines will be “write” on target! I made these with stuff I already had around the house (except the fun pencils), and they are easy enough that even young crafters can help you!
Are you a tea-aholic, or know someone who is? This cute little Birdie is the perfect addition to any cup of tea, and she will even make sure the paper on the tea bag doesn’t slip into your tea.

I am a big fan of dogs. In fact, they may be my favorite thing on the planet. Though I do not currently have a dog of my own, there are many dogs in my life who I hug on a regular basis. Making crafts for my friends has always been something to make me happy and it seems crafting for your pets has become a new trend in the crafting community. Here are some great projects I’ve found to give the dog in your life a present.
Dog Necktie – Think Crafts
This is necktie is adorable and slips easily over your dog’s collar. It could make a great costume or even a funny addition to a family photo. Plus, it’s easy to make and a great way to re-purpose an old tie. It will look better around your furry friend anyways.
