In December I pledged that in 2013 I will create at least 1 item from my Pinterest boards. So the other day I created a new board and specifically moved some items from my “Getting Crafty” board to my NEW board – “To Do in 2013!”
And then, WhimseyBox announced their Rediscover Craft in 2013 where you can sign up for weekly e-mails for inspiration. I am so excited about it and can’t wait to see what kind of ideas they have! If you have not heard of WhimseyBox I have blogged about them previously (here). It is an awesome subscription program – each month you will receive a beautifully wrapped box of pure fun and crafty goodness that stimulates the senses! I’m a little behind on creating things from my packages so I plan to incorporate that into my year of creativity!
This will be the year that I make my Pinterest Dreams come True (as well as the dreams of my friends who pin and pin and pin…)!
This weekend I have plans to start on some Valentine crafts – one of which will come from these super cute glass heart ornaments (leftovers from Christmas that are PERFECT for February 14th!!)
What are you crafting this year??
I have always been a crafter since I was younger. I enjoy reading different blogs for new ideas. When my grandson is here we do crafts too. Thanks for the information on Whimsey Box. I will surely check it out
I can’t wait to see what you make with these heart bottles. Dont forget to post pics
I just wrote a new post that includes pictures of the glass hearts. Check it out here – https://geminiredcreations.com/love-is-in-the-air/
I adore handmade jewelry, but I’d love to try making something for myhome design as well
I love the ideas people can come up with. Very cool!
I love making crafts too. I end up giving most way only because making them is the most fun for me!
Thats a great theme for this year, i am a DIY person so I hope to learn to make, cook and build things from scratch more.
we always make Christmas decorations yearly that we trade with other family members at Thanksgiving–but this year I’m gonna try a little quilting
i usaly take a couple of my grandkids and go looking for pinecons and then after i no there safe, we make ornamints and crafts, its great together time.
I’m crafting my daughters a “Nail Polish” rack made out of poster board and duck tape! 🙂 I’m anxious to sit down with them and do it! 🙂
I would love to see a picture of that when you are done! Sounds so cute! My e-mail is heather@geminiredcreations.com
My mind runs on like that too! Just looking at something randomly, and I will think – wonder how that would look like this or if I used that kind of material, etcl It will be good to have a year of actually doing thins!
I did lots of crafts for Christmas as we were very low on funds. I found it a relaxing change to my schoolwork and look forward to using Pinterest to find fun, relaxing crafts to do in 2013.
With Pinterest I would probably be successful with that goal. It sure has made things easier and I have saved a bit of money
I like making craft items for the Holidays, Right now I am going to make a nice craft item for Valentine’s day! I like getting items at the craft store at a discount and coming up with something on my own!
I am not a big crafter, although I love creating things. Thos glass heart ornaments are wonderful.
I love doing crafts. It just seems like there isn’t enough time in the day some weeks. That’s so cool that WhimseyBox sends you weekly emails with ideas for crafts.
I can’t find these glass heart ornaments anywhere. Any suggestions other than all of the craft stores…
Please let me know.
Depending on how many you are looking for, I’d be happy to create a “custom posting” for you to sell you some of my stock. Feel free to e-mail me at heather@geminiredcreations.com if you’d like to discuss. ~heather
