DIY – CUTE Shabby Chic, lace earring holder
OK, you guys know that I love picking things up from thrift stores, garage sales, hand me downs, etc… This is such a great way to save money, to get creative & to have a lot of fun!
I enjoy making so many different things. I learned about a year ago to make faux leather earrings with my Silhouette Cameo. WOW! What a game changer! It saved me some money by making my own, and also made me money by selling them at the same time! When my coworkers saw mine, they of course wanted me to make some to sell. Well, when you have that many earrings, you definitely need something cute to hold them… am I right?
I chose an old picture frame that I picked up at a thrift shop several years ago. I spray painted it white, and used some sand paper to rough it up a little bit. I used some lace that I purchased at Joanne’s Fabric, it was a bag that had about 6-8 different styles of lace. I stapled the lace to one side of the back of the frame, and just pulled it across the back tightly, then stapled it to the other side of the back of the frame. I did this several times, so that I could have several different rows of lace to hang my earrings from.
Shabby Chic earring holder Be creative, and don’t be afraid to try new things! I had not seen this done before, but in my mind I knew I was going to LOVE it! It gives you a super cute storage idea for all of your faux leather earrings!

DIY Easter Bunny Craft
Super Cute & Easy bunny diy craft Have you attempted to search out an easy diy craft to do with your kiddos, girlfriends or family members? Well, then you have come to the right place! This is a super easy, inexpensive DIY craft. I purchased all of the supplies from Hobby Lobby on sale. See the picture below for the list of supplies needed for this super easy DIY bunny craft…
wooden bunny, cotton for tail, scissors, paint sponge, mod-podge, and card stock. The first thing I did for this craft was trace the shape of the bunny with a pencil onto your craft paper or card stock. Use your scissors to cut out the shape that you traced on your card stock. Once you have the shape cut out, you will then use your paint sponge to apply the mod podge onto your wooden bunny. Once your bunny is coated with mod-podge, place your card stock onto the wooden shape. Make sure that all of your edges are sealed. I then hot glued my bunny tail in place. You can decorate with any embellishments that you choose. I wanted to add a some pretty little white flowers to the neck, to add a cute little personal touch!
I hope you enjoyed this craft, and had lots of fun putting your own personal spin on it!
