A wee bit of craftin'

Just a few projects to celebrate St.Pattrick's Day and this lovely month of March:

It all started on one crafty afternoon, when a friend and I were in a festive mood! With some paper, wire, green rafia, and a hoop,  we made some lovely front door decor.

Later in the week, I picked up a green basket and filled it with some green treats.

With some leftover paper, I transformed a plain ugly picture frame into this green checkered beauty. My printer is out of ink, so I could not print anything fancy to put in it. I still might replace the words with something more magical in the coming weeks.

With some old 2x4 blocks and a little paint, I made this little leprechaun hat and put it on a wooden easel.

For our kitchen wall, we needed a little leprechaun friend to greet us for breakfast each morning. I also picked up the giant pub glass at the dollar store and filled it with green good luck stones.

This banner is made of burlap and is stamped with the word "L.O.V.E" for Valentines day. But since it has not been up very long, I decided to give it one more month of use, by covering the word with "L.U.C.K"

And another February to March transformation. These are my Valentines Blocks....

..... that are now REVERSIBLE! I put these shamrocks on the back, and I love the way they turned out!

So many more ideas in mind (cough cough PINTEREST)  but I am without the funds and time to carry through with them all. I suppose my Crafting Craze has been appeased for now :)
