If you want a fairly inexpensive Halloween door hanger, be sure to look at this post. It is very simple and quite easy to complete in a day. The longest part is waiting on the paint to dry!
All in Crafts
DIY Disney Picture Frames
On our last Disney trip, one of the crafts we did before our trip was paint Disney pictures frames. This is extremely inexpensive (maybe $2 a frame), and it is super easy! We did Mickey and Minnie Mouse but feel free to change things up!
Disney Souvenir
If you have stayed at Disney World in the last few years, they send a nice little picture and a thank you for visiting. We have received both Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse. It is a sketch picture and at the bottom it says "Payne Family Vacation 2015". It is super cute, and we have so many that I felt we should do something with at least one of them. This idea has been floating around Pinterest, so I decided to recreate it. See below!
Trip Countdown Activity Idea
Going on a trip soon? Below is something we did to countdown to our most recent Disney trip. You can really do this for any upcoming trip to try and get everyone in the family excited!
Disney Nails
On our most recent trip to Disney World, I wanted to paint my nails in a Disney fashion. I found some different ideas from Pinterest, but I was unsuccessful in recreating them the same way. My mom and I improvised and below are the results!
John Deere DIY Baby Shower
When a was planning a baby shower for a coworker, I knew John Deere would be the perfect theme. Her son's nursery was going to have a lot of John Deere incorporated, and she is also a John Deere fan. Unfortunately finding John Deere baby shower items is difficult, so I decided to make my own. Below are the centerpieces I made and Cupcake toppers.
DIY Coffee Sleeve
This is something Brad and I did while counting down to our recent Disney trip. This is a really easy craft and it can be customized any way you want!
Baby Shower Gift Basket
For my sister-in-law's baby shower, my husband and I worked together to make a gift basket for her and her new baby. See below for all the details!
Lingerie Shower Decor and Invitations
My best friend and Matron of Honor hosted my lingerie shower. It was a lots of fun, and she had great food and decorations. We teamed up when deciding the decor and she was nice enough to let me even pick out the yummy food!
Wedding Gift Basket
So while shopping for our cousin's wedding, I found the cutest little mini-utensils for baking. I loved them so much, I decided to make a small gift basket for baking for her shower. The 'basket' is a stainless steel mixing bowl. We purchased one of each utensil in different colors of course. Then we topped it off with measuring cups! Super cute and easy wedding gift!
Spring Wreath
This is a really easy DIY wreath that can be tailored to any season.
These napkin rings are really simple to make and you can use any color yarn to make it fit within your decor.
This was my very first diaper cake, and it was surprisingly easy to make. My sister-in-law's baby shower was storybook themed, so I carried that over into the decor I used for the cake.
Bookmark Favor
For my sister-in-law's baby shower, we had a Storybook theme. Everyone was asked to bring a storybook instead of a card, and all of the decorations and food were based on some sort of storybook. When trying to decide a favor, I thought it would be perfect to give everyone a bookmark. I mean what goes better with a storybook theme than a bookmark to save your place in said storybook.
DIY Easter Basket
My DIY Easter basket is really easy to make and makes an inexpensive alternative to the store-bought Easter baskets.
Easter Decor
I love decorating for holidays. I have a few options below that may inspire some of your Easter decorating!
Easter Wreath
This wreath is a fairly easy wreath to make and can be used not only on a door, but also as wall decor. It only took me a few hours to make.
Fabric Bookmark
As a nice surprise for Brad, I found some leftover TMNT fabric that I knew I probably would never use. I decided to take the fabric and make Brad a bookmark. This was really a quick and easy project. If you have some leftover fabric, thread, needle, and a random piece of cardboard you are good to go!
