Hopping for Valentine's

Since Valentine's Day is right around the corner it is perfect timing to do a hop with Valentine's Bakers Twine by Timeless Twine. For the hop I created napkin rings.

Supplies: twine (Timeless Twine), gems (EK Success), washi tape (Doddle Bug Designs),glossy accents, air dry clay and empty Scotch tape spools.

    

1. This part is optional. Fill the indentations with the clay. Make sure you don't get any on the inside and outside of the ring.
2. Wrap ring with washi tape and twine.
3. Add bow in gem.

Next stop is Melisa

Dream Room

Last summer I started to redo my craft room. It so a super slow process since most of my family was ill some way or the other. Last, week after my mom kept pestering my dad I got it finished. Warning this is very photo heavy.

Here are the before pics.

All my scrappy goodies were sitting on the floor It went past the window. 

There is the wood for the shelf. It was there for a couple of months.

The table had a lot of stuff on it so it made working on anything difficult. 

The closet was super messy.

Here are the after pics.

Nothing is on the floor.

Jars and twine has a home.

Clear table.

I love the shelf my dad built for me.  I think I will keep it unpainted.

I love the chalkboard. 

I have this under the table. It stores my stickers, rub-ons and adhesive.

The closet looks cleaner. 

Thanks for stopping by for the tour. I am so happy how it came out.

Love Card

Since the biggest love holiday of the year is approaching I have been making love cards.
Here is one I just made. I used the sketch from Crafty Steals blog.

 For the half of the pennants in the banner I used epoxy stickers and the other half were sheet music stickers from Lily Bee Designs. Twine is the Valentine's Bakers Twine {Strawberry Cupcake} by Timeless Twine.

Later today I will show off my redo the craft room.

Tie It Up

Today is the second week for the current challenge over at ABAC. The continuing challenge is Tie It Up which means anything you can tie needs to be used on your project.

This notebook I did for my mom because she has been begging for one for awhile. I guess she likes all the other ones I made for myself and gave as gifts that she wanted one too.
