  • Making a Chunk Candle - Making chunk candles is an and fun activity for all ages. A unique technique using wax chunks of different colors gives the finished candle a beautiful texture and look. They make a refreshing alternative to the usual pillar candles. Follow these step-by-instructions and make your own pretty chunk candles to gift or keep.
  • Mosaic Plant Stand - Dress up a plain wooden stool with colorful mosaic marbles. Easy and stylish, great for your garden décor.
  • Mosaic Tile Pot - This sunny pot will be a perfect accent to your kitchen or bathroom. Noone will ever guess you made it yourself!
  • Neck Roll Pillow - It's really easy to make one of those neck roll pillows out of an old pair of jeans or pants! You don't even need to know how to sew!
  • Paint Stick Scarecrow - This adorable scarecrow makes a great decoration for your kitchen, garden, porch, or just about anywhere you want to "stick" him! Use scraps of material and inexpensive felt to put this cutie together.
  • Patriotic Address Sign - If you are looking for a unique way to show your patriotism, why not try some red, white and blue salt dough crafts? Better yet, take those creations one step further and make this great address sign for your house.
  • Patriotic Welcome Star - Your front door looks so plain, why not dress it up with this fun and easy welcome star! Perfect for Fourth of July, Memorial Day or any day you want to show your patriotic spirit!
  • Pressed Flower Coaster - Preserve the vibrant colors of spring and adorn your coffee table with these lovely floral coasters. These can also be used for paperweights, or glue a manget to the back. Beautiful, however you choose to use them!
  • Primitive Lamb - This primitive lamb was originally painted on an old milk bottle by artist, Cindy Trombley. We had an overabundance of 8x10 picture frames and decided to create this great country print to hang on the wall.
  • Quilted Keepsake Box - Turn an empty check box into this charming little quilted keepsake container. Use this cute little creation to store jewelry, hair accessories, receipts, loose change, or even... cancelled checks! Whatever you decide to use it for, it's a great way to recycle any kind of old box.
  • Quilting for Beginners: How To Quilt Beautiful Heirlooms - Quilting is a fantastic way to create a work of art with fabric. It is well understood that the "painting" will not be perfect, and that colors and patterns are limited to what's available in a quilt shop or hand dyed fabric.
  • Reusing a Changing Table - Most moms have, at one point, had a baby changing table. But once the baby is too big for it, what then? Sell it at a garage sale? Save it for your sister-in-law? Shove it in the storage shed or garage? Instead, create some needed storage space for your laundry room, mud room, kitchen, front porch, sewing room or any other area that is in need. Don't have one? You can pick one up at a garage sale these days for $10 or less.
  • Ribbon Flower Frame - While this craft is too intricate for little fingers, it makes a great gift for a grown up to make for a little girl in their life.
  • Rustic Birdhouse - This charming rustic birdhouse is a great addition to any country decor. A perfect spring project, just don't put it outside, the birds may move in!
  • Seashell Shore Wreath - This charming decoration is made from a twig wreath and seashells collected along the beach with a few added starfish from the store. "Vacationing on Cape Cod inspired me to create this shore wreath. It was simple and inexpensive to make. The white statice and silk stems added some additional texture to the wreath. I added a piece of fishnet to the back for a nautical feel."
  • Spool Baby - Isn't she sweet! This little wooden spool baby makes a great country shelf accent. Great for any room in the house or wrap her up and give her to someone you love.
  • Spring Blooms Tray - This decorative tray is absolutely lovely. Friends and family will be amazed when you tell them that you made it, they'll want one of their own!
  • Springtime Straw Hat - Need a lovely new Spring hat for Mother's Day? How about hanging this pretty straw hat on your porch for all to see? Simple instructions make this a fun and relatively quick afternoon craft project!
  • Starfish Candle - This pretty candle is not only a refreshing addition to your decor, it's so simply you'll want to make more. Makes a lovely accent to a beach or nautical theme room!
  • Sugar & Spice - Sugar and Spice and everything nice, that's what little girls are made of. These cute little girls are a joy to hang on your wall!
  • Sunflower Jar - What says summer more than fresh sunflowers? Bring that feeling into your home with this lovely painted design, easy!
  • Tie Dye Wall Letters - Has your daughter outgrown her frilly pink bedroom? She will love these bright and colorful wall letters to personalize her space! Tie dye is all the rage with teenagers, but choose any pattern that suits her.
  • Tips on Blending Your Own Potpourri - There are many ways of creating personalized potpourri blends. Potpourri is essentially a combination of dry botanical materials, fixative to hold the scent and scented oils. While fixatives are less than inspiring, adding your own botanical materials and/or scented oil creates a distinctively personal touch.
  • Victorian Door Posy - Here's a charming door bouquet that appears to be lighter than air and is made in a weekend, with time to spare. The lacy vase is a crocheted doily that's stiffened and shaped to form a pocket. The pocket holds a block of floral foam into which dried and silk flowers are arranged for an enchanting display.
  • Watermelon Picnic Caddy - Picnics, summertime, and watermelons, they go together well! Dress up your summertime picnic table with this darling watermelon caddy. Use it to hold napkins and utensils, or simply display its cuteness for all to see.
  • Welcome to Our Patch - Scarecrows are synonymous with Autumn. This little guy is so adorable you just can't resist him! Paint several to give away as gifts, or make one just for yourself to keep in the kitchen.
