My daughter loves pine cones and always collects them, so when I saw this tutorial for a beautiful way to display them in a frame, I had to post about it. The tutorial was created by Linda of Craftaholics Anonymous.
How beautiful would these framed pine cones look as part of your fall or winter decor.
Ali P made this paper wheel backdrop for her Let's Go Nuts Dinner Party and when I posted a photo of it on Facebook, the response was incredible. People kept wanting to know how she did it.
Well, Ali kindly put together this tutorial for us, so thank you, Ali! Now take it away...
I love garlands! They are some of my favorite decorations, so when I stumbled upon this felt garland tutorial from Rebekah of Twinkle and Twine, I had to write about it.
The best thing about this felt letter garland is that there is a "sew" and a "no-sew" version, so for the non-sewers like me, there's no need to feel intimidated. How great would this look on your mantle or even wrapped up as a holiday gift?
Check out these adorable and easy Halloween pom pom spiders Candy from The Party Bakery emailed me. If you are looking for some not-too-scary DIY Halloween decorations, these could be it.
See the whole tutorial here.
I saw these jeweled pumpkins on Glory's blog Glorious Treats and thought they looked so elegant and expensive.
It turns out Glory created these used Martha Stewart Glitter (in onyx) and Martha Stewart Arts & Craft Glue, and that was it!
How about making a Halloween chandelier to decorate your house this year? This DIY was created by Mandy from Little Birdie Secrets. I love the drama this would add!
Tell me these aren't the cutest Halloween mummies!
These were created by Kim at Craftaphile and I just love them. I'm planning to make some with my daughter to decorate our house. All you need are some Styrofoam balls, muslin, eyelets/brads, tea, floral wire, and glue. That's it.
Have you heard of festooning? It's one of my new favorite party craft decorations. I first learned about it when I saw this photo on Jen Smith's Jilly Bean Kids Facebook page.
In case you don't know, festooning is crepe paper fringed garlands that comes in 25' rolls in all these colors.
Jo-Anna from A Pretty Life in the Suburbs makes some beautiful crafts. I love this fall wreath she created with chunky yarn, felt, and an old sweater.
How wonderful would this look at your Thanksgiving celebration or even decorating your front door. It's so warm and cozy and the little pinwheel flowers are just too sweet.
I think homemade play dough is a great favor idea. It's cheap to make and you can pick your own colors.
I found this gorgeous and simple tutorial on adelynSTONE and thought it would be perfect to share. Kristan, the woman behind adelynSTONE, says the secret to her recipe is cream of tarter and not a lot of salt.
