Give Thanks Blocks

I was feeling crafty yesterday so I made a set of Give Thanks Thanksgiving blocks.  I was itching to do up some pumpkins with my cute pumpkin svg, so this is what I came up with.  They’re all made from 3/4″ pine, and were all painted brown.  The blocks got a little distressing with some sanding around the edges, and the the pumpkins were distressed with ink.  I used my flourish and dots embossing folders on the pumpkins to give them a little texture, and I used a flourish stamp with orange ink on my green cardstock.  Everything was given a clear-coat for...

Halloween Boo Blocks

This is my latest Halloween craft project.  It’s a cute set of BOO blocks made from pine wood and scrapbook paper.  I just cut my blocks in 3 different heights (3.5″, 4″, 4.5″), painted them black, and picked out some cute Halloween scrapbook paper.  I cut my papers just a little smaller than my blocks, and then cut out the letters with my Cricut machine.  I embossed the letters with my Cuttlebug, and stuck everything on with mod podge.  Then, to finish them off, (after clear coating them all), I added on some Halloween ribbon, rhinestones,...

Primitive Stars Shelf Decoration

I’ve added sets of primitive stars to my Etsy Shop.  You can get a set of 3 unfinished stars, each it’s own size and shape, or you can get the finished set.  Each set measures 8 1/2″H x 6″W,  7″H x  6 1/2″W, and 5 1/2″H x 6″W.  The finished set has been painted black with the words FAITH, FAMILY,  and FRIENDS painted on.  They’ve been sanded around the edges to give them a rustic look, and a bit of raffia added on to one star for a primitive feel.  These stars are perfect for those who are into the primitive...

New Unfinished Owl Craft Kits

I’ve added four new unfinished owl shapes to the Craft Kits section of my Etsy Shop.  Kits include wood owl shapes, and cardstock templates for the body parts.  These kits are great for people who enjoy mod podging, or creating their own designs.  Although I include the template, it’s easy to create your own templates by tracing the outer edge of the owl where you want your wing or other body part to go (before painting), then designing the inside on your own.  Eyes and belly shapes can be cut out with craft punches or die cut machines as well.  Painting...

Thanksgiving Craft

Here’s a new set of Thanksgiving blocks I made.  This is a Gobble ‘Til Ya Wobble set made from a 2″ x 2″ pine wood, cut at 7 inches long.  I painted the blocks brown, and adhered fall colored papers to the front.  Then I cut out the words in various fonts with my Cricut machine, and wrapped them all together with orange ribbon.  This will be perfect to set out on my kitchen counter this Thanksgiving while cooking up my dinner!  You can find the turkey svg here, as well as this set and other Fall related decor and diy projects at my Etsy...
