Melted Crayon Art | Junk in the Trunk. My sister Molly came to visit over Christmas. With the new baby we spent a lot of time at home, so we got busy crafting! Molly saw melted crayon art on Pinterest and wanted to attempt some of her own. We ended up with splattered walls and blown fuses, but they turned out great! 1. 2. 3.

Here she is with her masterpieces. Here is a close up. Zp8497586rq. DIY Washi Tape Laptop Keyboard. Look whose little old MacBook got a facelift this weekend! I spotted this idea from minifanfan on Making It Lovely last week and just had to give it my own spin. I purchased my Japanese washi tape from Le Box Boutique on Etsy. There are hundreds of washi tape sellers but I chose Le Box because they allow you to purchase tape by the foot rather than having to purchase the entire roll. They were very easy to interact with and I would definitely recommend them if you’re looking to purchase washi tape! I chose these ten patterns but only ended up using eight of them on my keyboard.
The purple and blue patterns looked a bit more opaque than the others when applied to the keys and I’m kind of crazy when it comes to matchy-matchiness. I first thoroughly cleaned my keyboard with rubbing alcohol to remove any dirt or oil that might keep the tape from sticking. This project was a bit tedious but simple – perfect for a few hours in front of the tv.

Recently, I made a small kitchen rug for Jon's mom. I like crochet because it's very forgiving. And it's quick. And fun. And relaxing. I didn't really use a pattern or anything. Anyway, it worked up in a few hours. This kind of thing is really fun and easy to do. As you can see, I get a lot of help around here... UPDATE: Due to popular request, I've created a vlog tutorial series on this project. Tutorial: Quick Envelope Pillow Case. Everyday Mom Ideas: Scrap Paper Tree Centerpiece Tutorial (Featured guest blogger) Hi there!

Thank you so much, Julia, for having us. My co-blogger, Tristin, and I create fun and inexpensive crafts that anyone could do. Our goal is to inspire. So come check us out! Today I would like to share with you all our newest craft. This simple project uses scrapbook paper leaves to create a bright and cheery Spring ambiance for your home. First, drag out your unseemly healthy assortment of scrapbook paper scraps. Cut out a template of your leaf from the cardboard (you can also use chipboard or card-stock). Take your floral wire and cut strips anywhere from 5"-8" long. Lay down some newspaper next to your workspace.
Now for the fun part! ...or make them funky. And you're done! Thanks again, Julia, for having us here today! §.
