I recently became interested in abstract art. Like the DIY kind. I’m not a ‘real artist’ so as to not offend ‘real artists’ but anyone can create a basic piece of abstract art and get their creative juices flowing.

Metallic Gold Foil Pillows
I really wanted some more gold accents in my daughter’s room, so I thought some gold foil pillows would be perfect. And I love how they turned out, especially the little stars. My daughter’s room is going to be a long road. I can’t decide what I want and even though I have visions in…
Rustic Painted American Flag
This post originally appeared on the DecoArt blog June 2014. It’s the season for being patriotic! This rustic painted American flag craft I did is super easy and turned out so cute. It’s very rustic looking, but the only thing old is the wooden box its in. You could recreate this even if you don’t…

Mother’s Day Paper Ranunculus Wreath
I’m going to be honest…paper crafting is not my forte. But when Astrobrights® Papers sent me all their glorious paper and card stock, I really wanted to make a wreath with paper flowers to give to my Mom for Mother’s Day. And Ranunculus is one of my favorite flowers (I like to say I liked…

Built in Indoor Playhouse
I am lucky that one of my good friends built a house up the street from us. And that she does hair for a living. So we decided to make a little trade–I would help her with DIY projects and she would do my hair for free. Win win! Our first DIY project turned out…
Lava Soap Review
I love painting and staining. Well, let me rephrase that–if someone were to clean up after me, I would love painting and staining. It’s possibly the messiest crafting you can do.

Heart String Art
I didn’t even mean to call it ‘heart string art’ but there it is. That’s what it is. Ha! I was challenged by Valspar and Porch.com to use the Pantone color of the year Marsala in a Valentine’s Day project along with one other mystery item, which turned out to be a chevron stencil. As…
