Hair Bow Holders

Now that my niece was born, I am constantly looking for things to do for her. Last night, I came up with this really cute idea and it turned out great. It is a photo hair bow holder! Its almost like the swirly swirl frames I have done, but turned them into hair bow holders. It takes more time, but they look great! I have posted them on my etsy page! So go check them out!

Swirly Swirl Frames

It has been a long time I had not done any crafts to add to my etsy shop. Since my computer broke, I haven't really done anything. Today in the morning though, I had some time to create these beautiful frames. I first primed the wooden frame, then painted then added a nice touch with the swirls. It takes time because you have to wait for them to dry completely in between they layers you are creating. With the first frame, it took longer time to create because I did different techniques. I loved how they turned out! My favorite one is the first one. I will post them on my etsy shop. The first one is $15, and the other two are only $10 each. I have also done custom work. If you like these frames, but would like them in different colors just let me know!

Altered Wood Blocks

This is a different design I did! I know school will start pretty soon! I thought maybe teachers could decorate their desk with these blocks! I know thats what I would do! haha..
I custom cut these wooden block pieces, sanded the blocks , primed, paint and decorate. It actually took much longer time that I expected. But they turned out so cute! The square in the middle is a transparency. I stamped it using acrylics. It was kind of hard because the stamps moved while I was stamping. But I love how the stamping turned out! I am selling these name blocks on etsy! Check them out!

Personalized Wood Blocks

Arent these cute??? A couple days ago, I was sitting in my craft room thinking of what to do next. I just love coming up with new ideas. I've made mixed media collages, scrapbook pages, canvas art, drawings, luggage tags, frames, pencil holders, woodburning boxes, decoupaged cigar boxes and much more!
I love to do personalized, custom work and made this personalized wooden block! I received a message from a woman who just had her third baby girl in May! She loved the Ashley design, but wanted to see if I could put all of the baby births information! Of course I did, and it turned out beautiful! I loved it!
Here is the custom block they ordered! I can just imagine how beautiful it will look in the baby's room! I think green and pink are the perfect colors to decorate a baby's room(a girls room of course)! I keep telling my sister to decorate the room with these colors, but she still has no idea of what to do!
All the letters are stamped with acrylic paint. I stamp the information on transparency and it makes it a little harder to stamp on. But I love the results! Its not perfect, you can tell its handmade but thats exactly what I love about it! I hope they like their custom block!

New Office/Craft Room

On Sunday, we finally bought a desk for our office/craft room. Its a huge desk that goes around the whole room. It is the perfect desk for our office/craft room. I will start painting this weekend, so I can start organizing everything. I bought 4 shelves so I can put all of my stuff away. I will post pictures of the final room soon!


These are some of the projects I have worked on. I love this Rolodex. I bought it a couple months ago, but I forgot I had it. I turned it in to our new address "book". It is perfect to have as an address holder. It is easy to find any address or number you need. I just love how it turned out! I have printed all of the addresses on big labels, and I will just stick them on.





Yesterday I went to the scrapbook store, ( I hadnt been there for a while) and I saw this scrapbook page kit they were selling. I loved it so much I bought it. I loved the color combination. I finished the page, and this is how it turned out! Of course, I added some extra things and made it a little different. This scrapbook page is for 1 4X6 photo. A black and white picture will look beautiful! It feels good to go back and work on these projects! With the wedding plans, I didnt even have time! I will post more projects later on!

Beautiful Picture Frames

I have started making some really pretty picture frames to sell on my shop. Since I was really busy with wedding plans, I hadn't had a chance to make things and sell on my shop. Theres only 2 more weeks until school is over, so this will be my summer job!! :) I have to start promoting my shop so I can sell more things!
