Let It Shine

Hi there fellow Crafty People. Welcome to my little blog.  I want to share another craft created by my talented daughter  Cole . Today, we're hoping we can bring out the artist in you . Now let's take a look a Cole's DIY Woven Ribbon Art. Then imagine your version of this cute little project. Materials Canvas wrapped wooden frame in your preferred size Ribbon in your choice of colours and widths Glue or staple gun You can choose any size canvas that suits the space you intend to hang it in. Choose ribbon in colours that match items already in the room so that it will coordinate nicely. If you are making it for a bedroom, I suggest you use the bed spread as your colour inspiration. Cole glued the ribbon but I would prefer to use a staple gun. The staples won't show since you are shooting them in the back of the piece. We have three completed ribbon covered canvases which look fantastic hanging vertically in a straight line. It fill the spa

Hi everyone. This is my first try at making an Etsy Treasury. My treasury is called My Retro Red Kitchen. I choose this theme because red is my happy colour. So if it is yours too, you'll absolutely love the items in this treasury. Oh, and I decided to highlight kitchen items because ever since my daughter Nicole moved out, I have spent a lot more time in that part of the house. Happy!  Happy!  Happy! Come by again next Tuesday to see if I get any better at this Treasury gig.  :) Well, thanks for stopping by.  If your interested, stop by my Etsy Shop,  Little Shop of Treasures  or check out this  free printable calendar .

Now let's take a look a Cole's two tier planter then imagine your version of this cute little project. Materials Two different sizes of terra cotta planters Acrylic paint - colour of your choice Potting soil Plants - of your choice.  Small stones Directions Paint the exterior of the terra cotta planters and a couple of inches down on the inside. Nicole chose purple because it is her favorite colour. It does look nice with all the green. Once the paint is dry, fill the larger planter 2/3rds with potting soil.
