I decided to try a new series out this year called Let’s DIY! It’s a spin off of my Friday Finds series I had last year where I featured some of my favorite projects I’d seen the past week. This year I’m gearing it towards DIY projects that I think are inspiring and fresh!
These were my favorite five from this past week!
- Watercolor Stationary by Paper & Stitch
- Leather Keychain by Homey Oh My!
- Dyed Favor Bags by Paper & Stitch
- Moon Phase Wall Hanging by Almost Perfect
- Layered Foam Wall Art by A Beautiful Mess
Jeffrey came home from work yesterday and said ‘I’m calling this weekend ‘Improve Yourself Weekend.’ What are you going to do to improve yourself this weekend?’ Which I thought was kind of funny because I LOVE that idea and had already deemed the entire week ‘Improve Yourself Week’ by learning Light Room, Photoshop, Google Analytics, AdSense and working out! I’m kinda wanting to run out to the craft store when he gets home to buy all the supplies for ALL of these crafts!
I’m really interested in making generic favor gift bags saying things like ‘hello’, ‘yay’ and ‘i love you’ to have on hand for easy wrapping! What DIY project are you excited to get started on this weekend? Any of the above spark an interest?
The Moon Phase Wall Hanging is so cool!
I thought so too!! I feel you could put it in a lot of different rooms. Even a nursery!
i’m dying over the watercolor stationary! I’m a sucker for stationary and I have pretty good handwriting…why not make my own?! So inspired…thanks for sharing!
I would LOVE to see what you create Gracielle!! 🙂
Working with leather cord is something I’ve always wanted to do. And make bracelets too. So the key ring looks awesome. I am so intrigued by the clay moon phases and foam art. Though I probably don’t have the patience for the layered foam art. So cool though! Can’t wait to see what you create!
I would love to see what YOU create!! I wish we could craft together and do one of these projects!
I really love the stationary! I never have cards when I need them, and they’re so darn expensive! I hate paper crafting though — all the tiny scraps of paper everywhere! – so I think I just need to find an etsy card maker that I really like.
I agree on paper crafting…but Etsy stuff is so expensive when I can make it!! 😉 Watercolor doesn’t have a lot of scrap…you could just do some of those pre-made!
