While I may not be the craftiest person around (patience..I have little… I’m working on it!), there’s nothing I love more than getting my hands on a good project when the mood strikes. The next rainy weekend that comes my way here are the challenges I’m going to tackle:
[chalkboard painted bottles seen here]
[fabric ribbon garland seen here]
[chain and thread bracelet seen here]
What projects are on your “to-try” list?
