Valentines Day craft night!

This has turned into quite the tradition now! Seasonal crafts and girls nights merging! This time one friend and I stayed up to 2am! So fun!

Our first craft was a felt heart. (good find Courtney!) You cut felt into 2-3 inch circles. Depending on how dense you want your petals will depend on how much felt you need. Then you fold the circle in half and then in half again. Pin the corner of the felt into a foam heart shape that you would by at hobby lobby. Repeat until you have the fullness you desire. Add a piece of ribbon or lace with hot glue or pins and hang!


Next is just simply framing doilies! For the first one I just laid burlap as a back ground and put a doily and a bow! The next one I used lace in my back ground with a doily and a bow made of burlap to tie it together!


Last was a lovely banner. Just cut burlap into squares. Cut whatever word or phrase out of lace and trim with lace or ribbon. Adhere the letters with a glue gun or you can see it if you get crazy! Same for the lace trim. Just make sure you leave enough on either end to hang it.

I don't think we will do a St. Patties Day craft night but for sure an Easter one!

Christmas craft night!

I know I'm behind but...I wanted get these on!

Chalk gift tags (also be used for name cards). Super cute and super easy gift tags that could easily be used for birthdays or other holidays.

Spray paint a cardboard box that you cut into flat pieces with chalk spray paint. After dry cut into squares and decorate as desired!

Burlap Banner
Just cut burlap into any size triangle. Using craft paint and stencils blot the paint over the stenciled of the letters you want. Adhere a ribbon by either sewing or using double stick tap. Tie loops at the end to be able to hang it!

Balloon Ornament
We got so many compliments on these sparkling things!

Blow up water balloons with air. Use modge podge and coat the balloon. Then using white twine or cotton ribbon begin wrapping it around the balloon in a random pattern. Start with a dot of glue and end it with a little extra to use to hang it. Roll the wet balloon in glitter and hang dry over night.

Christmas Carol Ornament

Purchase foam balls and light fabric. Cut the fabric into strips and with a sharpie write the lyrics to your favorite Christmas Carol. With hot glue wrap the strips around the foam ball. To hang hot glue twine or ribbon in a loop.

Our craft night was so fun we kept it going and met again later in the week to finish! These craft nights have now become seasonal so stay tuned for Valentines Day!
