Spring is right around the corner it seems, especially where I live in PA it’s 50 degrees in January today! So needless to say I’m feeling like Spring today! I recently discovered that Lowe’s has packs of 10 paint sticks for only 99 cents! Naturally I know they are going to make a great addition to my DIY projects. So I grabbed a few and began brainstorming. This rustic looking floral HOME sign is my first paint stick project. There will be more to come, I already have tons of ideas that so want to try. For this project you will need: • 2 packs of paint sticks (totaling 20 sticks) • An H, M and E wooden letter (I got mine from Walmart for 97 cents each) • Paint (any color you choose really) • Floral bunch of lilacs (again, from Walmart 97 cents) • Hot glue gun and 2 glue sticks If you’d like to watch my DIY YouTube video you can here https://youtu.be/77AejbFOFcQ or continue reading for step by ste...
This little Cricut hack took my crafting to a whole new level! Since I have discovered this hack I haven’t used vinyl as a stencil since. I mean, why would I? This dollar tree shelf liner cost only $1.00 per roll and it’s 6 inches longer/wider. Below is a step by step walk through on how to make a simple wooden sign using the Dollar Tree shelf liner as a stencil and transfer tape. Get your rolls ready. Cut a piece from each roll to size for your stencil. Choose an image or saying for your stencil and cut with your Cricut or Silhouette machine. I use the lowest setting for this. It’s a little thinner than vinyl. Remove the letters or image with a Cricut tool or similar tool you can buy on EBay , that’s where I got mine. Once you remove the letters set the stencil you’ve created aside. Take the clear shelf liner a.k.a transfer tape back off and place the transfer tape over your stencil. Take your time and make sure it’s lined up close to the same. Watch ...
Heart Shaped No-Sew Pillow This no-sew pillow was so fun and simple to create. Trow it on your couch, bed or bench to add a touch of love in any space. The supply list is short and the creative possibilities are endless. You're going to need some fleece. This is where you can have some fun with your pillow. I chose to use two different colors for mine but you can do a solid color design or get a patterned print if you'd like. Supplies you'll need: - 2 pieces of fleece. The size can vary depending on the size of the pillow you are looking to make. Mine is about 18 inches wide. - A pair of good scissors - Stuffing. Now this is where you can get savvy. If you have an old pillow laying around go ahead a rip that sucker open and use that filling. Or just go buy a cheap Walmart or Dollar General pillow. It is so much cheaper than buying a bag of fill. -As for the template, you can print one out using a Cricut or Silhouette machine or if you have a steady hand dra...
