Happy Valentine’s Day! This year instead of making a card for Ryan I decided to stitch him up a jar of hearts. I feel pretty darn lucky to have him in my life and am always looking for a good excuse to let him know how happy he makes me. Hope you all had a [...]
First crafting project completely by the brunch clubbers. Making candles turned into staining glass jars. I think it may take a few tries to perfect the glass process but the candles came out great.
Winter is the perfect time to stay inside and work on craft projects. I took a trip to Zimmans to buy some fabric for some bags I’ve been working on. I absolutely love that store, I walk in and am instantly overwhelmed with possibilities.
