My fun DIY crafts and projects

I recently painted this sunflower. I've been watching a few painting tutorials online.

It was such a fun project. I sipped on a glass of wine, played some tunes, and created this sunflower.

My husband roasting his coffee. I absolutely love how the house smells when he roasts the coffee beans. Have you tried roasting your own coffee beans? If so let me know in the comments below.

I made some orange spiced granola. All you need are some oats, walnuts, orange zest, and a few spices. Bake and enjoy! It's so delicious and it's perfect for topping your oatmeal in the morning.

Sweet little ladybug. I took this picture during a trip to the zoo.

Can you tell me that I love sunflowers? A trip to the craft store for paint and I ended up buying these sunflowers. They were on sale too!

We read daily. Lately, we've been reading Halloween stories.

Changing up my table decor.

The haunted house my daughter made when they had the Lowe's kids building workshop.

A peaceful fall day at the zoo.

I love all the changing colors.

Sweet treats are always welcome!

I'm finding new ways to bake and using new ingredients as well.

It's always such a fun time. I really enjoy baking with my oldest.

Thanks for stopping by!

May your Autumn days be filled with love, laughter, joy, and beautiful moments.

Looking to add some greenery to your space? Hello everyone! Today, we’re going to create a quick and simple succulent display using a round baking pan from Dollar Tree. I completed this craft a while ago, but forgot to share it with you. It's an easy project, and all the materials—except for the spray paint—were purchased at Dollar Tree. You can make this lovely decoration in just 10 minutes. Let’s get started on this succulent decoration together! Materials -One baking pan -Spray paint -Stones/rocks -Crushed glass -Artificial succulents -One glass candle holder Start by applying spray paint to the baking pan. I had a bronze color from a previous project, and it would be a great opportunity to use it again. When applying spray paint, make sure to cover the surrounding area and ensure that the space is well-ventilated. Once you have painted the pan, allow the paint to dry.
