DIY Paper Birds.





Lately, I've been looking through a few of my craft books, trying to find something new for the little one and me to do. Our daughter is two and is very hands-on. So today I decided we would make these cute little paper birdies.


Materials needed:
Paint (or you can use crayons or markers) we used paint
hole puncher 
Paper clips 
tape
Craft paper

It's a very simple project. I just started off with making a bird so that I could use that as a cutout for the rest. Both my daughter and I painted our birds and allowed them to dry. Later we put the paper clips on each bird, using some tape to keep them in place. Using a hole punch, just punch out one eye on your paper bird. Now place them in a pot, or in your window. They are super cute.

Budget-Friendly Spring Frame Decor with Faux Flowers

There’s something truly wonderful about transforming the simplest craft supplies into a soft, delicate piece of décor. Recently, I was looking at a plain white picture frame from Dollar Tree—nothing fancy, just simple and clean. It reminded me of my love for quick projects that utilize materials we already have on hand.    I had a few leftover faux flowers from a previous craft , and instead of putting them away again, I thought, “Why not add a touch of spring magic to this frame? ”    It’s one of those easy, no-stress projects that is calming to create and instantly brightens up any space. With just a few snips and some hot glue, that plain frame transforms into something soft, pretty, and perfectly suited for the season. Quick video tutorial  Materials You'll Need A simple white picture frame is a great choice for this project, especially if you love a clean, minimalist vibe! It really gives a fresh, stylish look that can brighten any space.   Gather an...
