Admittedly, I don't decorate much for fall. Being a blogger, come September, my mind is already thinking to Christmas (crazy, I know), so fall decor per se consists of a few autumn-scented candles dotted around the house. That's it! This year though, I wanted to up my fall decor game with a pretty wreath or two, which are also perfect for decorating any space in the home for Thanksgiving!
That's it, summer's officially over! My kids got back to school this week, and the cooler temps are already beckoning for all things Fall, like pumpkin spice lattes and cozy craft sessions in front of the TV 😊 So today I'm sharing a couple of super cute, and simple DIY projects that are perfect to get your office or school life organized and oh-so pretty!
Photo source How's the 4th of July already next week?! 😯 Time sure flies, and there's nothing better than quick and easy DIY crafts, decor and party treats to help us get into the patriotic, festive spirits with style and ease! So here are a few hand-picked Pinterest favorites that have inspired me this week. Hope you too feel inspired for your own red, white and blue celebrations!
Summer is upon us, and apart from drinking sangria all day, I'm dreaming about crafting all sorts of fun, colorful and seasonal party accessories, like these custom summer sun hats! Wouldn't they be so cool for a pool or beach party?! I made these for a summer party shoot I styled a few weeks ago (as you probably saw in my Instagram stories ?) and they looked so fab and were so easy to make, that I had to share the DIY tutorial here with you guys!
DIY Paper Flower Cake Toppers
Paper anything is my jam. But paper flowers are my particular favorites! I mean, you take a fairly simple, banal, flat piece of paper and fashion it into something 3-D, beautiful and super practical. What's not to love?! And did I mention they're so easy to craft? Yep, despite their intricate looks, they're a cinch to make, and one of those DIYs that even the kids can help with!
DIY Scented Bath Bombs
We're starting our week with a super fun and gorgeously fragrant DIY. Is there a better way?! These scented bath bombs look so pretty and are a fun crafty activity to make with girlfriends during a girls night-in or spa party and they make a super sweet gift for teachers, or party favor for so many occasions and celebrations!
DIY Easter Egg Candles
When I was fourteen, my school organized a crafts sale, and we had to make all sorts of handmade decor items to sell, including scented candles. We made star-shaped candles, triangular candles, round candles...they smelled sooooo good and I was hooked for life! On candles. Candle-making is one of my favorite crafts ever! You can see one of the blog's most popular post here , which happens to involve candles , what else?! So today I'm more than a tad excited to share my latest DIY candles with you - Easter Egg candles! 😍
DIY No-Sew Embroidery Hoop Wall Art
Welcome to another edition of Kids' Crafts - crafts made by kids, for kids! If you didn't see, this year we kicked off a new blog series called 'Kids' Crafts' inspired by my mini-me!😍 Yes, we're a family of craft-lovers, what can I say?!
Whether you're hosting a Valentine's Day party for your gal pals, a romantic dinner date with your other half or a fun party at home for the whole family, these party crackers are sure to bring a little "bang" to your love day event! 😉 It's a British tradition to have crackers at Christmas. They pop with a loud bang when you pull them apart and make for a fun party game! They're also usually filled with party jokes and trinkets inside, so I thought they would make a super fun Valentine's Day party favor!
Happy New Year, party friends! We're kicking off 2018 here on the blog with a crafty post. There's no better way, #amiright?!

Come to think of it, they'd be a perfect match for our Pomegranate Moscow Mule cocktail we shared yesterday! 😊
