DIY $6.00 HOME sign

Image
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...

Dollar Tree Shelf Liner Cricut Hack

Image
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?

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 ...

  Upcycle Project  Thrift Store Microwave Stand We moved into a new place with very minimal counter space and being a family of 6 this is quite the issue for us. So being the savvy mamma that I am I quickly found the cheapest way to maximize the space we we're working with.  I searched all the second had stores in my local area. I would have loved to go yard sale hunting but I live in Erie PA and it was not the time of year for that. So naturally I did the next best thing and I went thrift store hopping. Starting with the well knowns like The Salvation Arm and Good Will, they were a bust. It didn't take me long at all to find this one pictured here for only $5.00! This is why I love the littler private owned shops. You always find the most unique things and at a great price!  Here is my before picture of the microwave stand. It needed a very good cleaning first and for most. I knew there were a few options for me when it came to this transformation. I could paint it,...
