I Love Crafting!

Happy new year everyone! I'm not big on resolutions but I want to make sure I spend this year doing more things I love. One of those things is crafting! I never make enough time to do all the projects I want. Crafting is awesome because I love having unique things that you can't buy. And crafts also make awesome gifts! I'm going to share some projects I've done and some I want to try. If you decide to try them out too send me pictures!

First of all, these key chains are ADORABLE and super easy! Can't wait to make my own. 


I've already tried these bow clips and they turned out great! Once I got a hang of it I even tried different styles. If you find you like making bows there are tons of step-by-step websites out there. Here are some of the ones I made.

Once I learn how to crochet I'm going to make this bangle. Look familiar? I posted the bangle before in an inspiration post. The woman who made it was kind enough to send me the instructions!

And how cute is this casserole carrier made from a re-purposed sweater? Such a good idea!

Check out this fabulous glitter headband! Love it.



Speaking of glitter... I'm obsessed. I bought Martha Stewart glitter set at Michaels and I can't find enough stuff to glitter! This is the glitter pack I bought. I think it sells for $30 or $40, but Michael's almost always offers 40% off coupons. Trust me, you want it.

I glittered this picture frame a few days ago. I bought it in unfinished wood (also at Michaels!) and covered it in acrylic paint because I didn't want any part to be plain. Once the paint dried, I coated the frame in plain Elmer's glue. Sprinkle on the glitter and you're done! So easy and pretty!



That's all I've got for today. I'll be posting all of the crafts I make, and would love to see any you make or  hear any of your ideas.
