Faux Primitive Old Fashioned Peppermint Sticks
A couple months ago, I started making mesh wreaths. Something I always wanted to try doing and after watching several YouTube videos I decided to give it a try. One video I was intrigued with was the Dollar Store Mesh Wreath, being the “frugal” person that I am, if I’m going to screw up making…
Repurpose a Basket into a Pumpkin
Today is the last day of summer! I don’t know about where you live, but here in Western PA, it has been hot & humid with lots of rain. I’ll be glad when all this humidity is gone and I can enjoy it outside again. I’m a real baby when it comes to the heat…I…

Crafting A Wax Pantry Cake
I know many of you see these wax pantry cakes and they can be pricey if you are buying them from someone. So I decided to try my hand at it. I didn’t want to try anything bundt size, so I kept my eye out for a small mold at Goodwill and yesterday I found…
Prim Candle Holder
The other day, I was at Home Depot to pick up my 5 gallon jug of water and of course I had to take a browse around the store. I’m sure I am not the only woman who likes Home Depot! I was looking for some lathe wood and that’s when I saw the garbage…
