PINTEREST.... My New Obsession!!

SOOOO... Michelle got me hooked on a new website called Pinterest. Its a site that people post different crafts, recipes, ideas, pretty much anything you can think of! It is got me into crafting these past few weeks! I thought I would share what I have recently made!!!

Vinyl Blocks for my Bookcase!
Thanks to Steph for the blocks, vinyl, and the scrapbook paper, I made a Thanksgiving decoration!
All I did was use paint the blocks. Once they were dry I sanded them down to have a distress type look. then I used Modge Podge to glue the scrapbook paper down and then added some vinyl lettering and there you have a simple yet cute decoration for your shelf. Don't forget to add the ribbon!!

Turn my Thanksgiving around and there you have Christmas!!!

Paige's new I <3 You Because Frame now sits on her dresser in her room.
All I did was buy a White Picture Frame. Printed out the I love you because and did the line on a paper. Put it in the frame and with a dry eraser marker I am able to write the reasons why I love Paige on a daily basis. This was EXTREMELY EASY!!!

Paige's new Bow Board! I did not have a bow board yet for Paige so I searched Bow Boards on Pinterest and a Magnet Board popped up. I thought Hmmm... I have something like that already... i wonder if it would work. Soooo... I took this Magnet board that I received as a Baby Shower gift from Dana and Jan. I painted the frame white, added Paige's name with Vinyl letterings, glued magnets to the frame and put magnets on the magnetic part and there you have a very handy, yet very cute Bow Board!!!

Paige has ZERO hats for the winter and I had seen someone post on Pinterest Knit Hats. SO I decided to explore and found how to make them. They were super easy once I got the hang of it. I also made the bows!! I put Velcro on the hat as well as the back of the bows so I can coordinate the hats and bows to whatever Paige is wearing! and then I thought the bows were too cute that I made extra ones to put on her headbands!!! Now Paige's head can be warm during the cold nights!!!


And here you have all of my new crafts!!! There is more to come... that's for sure!!!!
