This weekend’s projects…

I have become addicted to a site called Pinterest which is an online bulletin board to keep track of interesting things you find on the internet.  Most of the items I have ‘pinned’ are craft projects.  The site inspired me to complete several projects over the three day weekend this past weekend.  Here are some of the pictures…

Ideas “Stolen” from Pinterest…

‘S’ Button artwork for Sadie’s room, all the supplies were on hand so this was a free project!!  A Christmas tutu for Sadie, it looks really cute with the onesie I am working on.  And footprint Christmas tree art made by Casper and I, we made four of these and framed them for gifts…the frames were the only purchase so these were a very inexpensive project too.

Ideas “Inspired” by Pinterest….

These ideas weren’t found on Pinterest, but I was inspired by seeing all the similar projects that I finally jumped in and completed some of my own.  I added straw and birds to a refurbished bird cage to decorate Sadie’s room.  I also put a collection of Nativity Christmas ornaments on a wreath since I was worried about them being to heavy for the tree.

I made my own Mistletoe arrangement to hand in my house and use for my Christmas card photo shoot next weekend (stay tuned for that).  There were a lot of ideas for jewelry organizers on the site, and I was tired of tangled necklaces, so I used a bulletin board I already had and some stick pins to organize my necklaces.  I thought this would make it easier to decide what to wear each day but unfortunately it just reminds me of the pieces I forgot about and makes it harder to choose.

If you need some inspiration, check out Pinterest and look me up…I can’t wait to try some other projects!
