Tempting Tutorials: simple decor DIY

February 7th, 2011 · 3 Comments · Crafts, DIY Tutorial

My style would not be considered minimalistic. The concept of that sounds grand, but when it comes down to it my dream abode would be chock full of kitschy wonder, granny afghans, crayon box color and a teensy bit of glitter. A place where homey meets retro, where my collection of beer koozies can be [...]

Polly Danger’s Custom Tear-Off Notepad DIY

January 26th, 2011 · 1 Comment · DIY Tutorial

My sweet e-friend, and amazingly awesome penpal, Mrs. Polly Danger featured a very useful tutorial on her blog this week for custom tear-off notepads.

Holy cupcake, I’m a sucker for tutorials. If they’re simple and quirky, you’ve won me over before we even got started! A friend of mine, Lynnea from Squid Ink Kollective, posted a link to these tutorials on her Facebook page and I was immediately intrigued. A big long LIST of TUTORIALS you say? Okay.

My heart and brain is screaming for some sit-down crafty autumn time. Now that the weather is slowly changing and football season is in full swing my eyes have been turning towards DIYs and little projects and crafts I can do at home on the lazy weekend days. Now if only I had time to [...]

Doily Projects

August 25th, 2010 · No Comments · Crafts, DIY Tutorial

I mentioned my granny-love of doilies before, and when I saw this round up of doily projects from How About Orange I squeed my pants! I just happened to have scored a small string of vintage doilies from a yard sale last weekend… so my wittle brain is conniving a project. I’m thinking the drawstring [...]

Tempting Tutorials: twisty ties, custom tiles, newspaper bags

August 6th, 2010 · 2 Comments · Tempting Tutorials

This is “Tempting Tutorials” round two! I’m loving that I can gather these ideas that I see everywhere in one place so I can refer back to them later. I sooo wish I was independently wealthy so I could sit around all day doing project after project, crafting awesomeness at every turn. Oh dreams..

Mapenvelop Tutorial

April 12th, 2010 · No Comments · DIY Tutorial

I spied these nifty Google Maps Envelopes while perusing the Craftzine.com blog and was smitten. Designer Beste Miray Dogan made up this Mapenvelop, an envelope with a map of the place in which the letter originated, using Stephen’s template . They’re cute, quirky and AWESOME to get in the mail. If you flip the idea [...]
