    A Quilted Table Runner

    December 14, 2021 /

    Every year during Advent, I work on Christmas gifts in my spare time. There’s always one project that I do “in bulk” and give to multiple people, be it our kids, my Godchildren, or our children. This year, one of the things I’m making in bulk is quilted table runners. I wanted to do something for our adult friends but wasn’t sure what at first. Then the idea struck me to make table runners and put together a gift basket for making a meal. That way, there was a focus to the gift. At first, I thought about making a table runner to match the homes of the recipients, but…

    A Homemade Holiday: Lip Balm

    December 5, 2018 /

    Looking for a fast, easy gift idea? This lip balm is perfect for a quick project that can pack a lot of punch! It does require that you have certain ingredients in your home, but if you make your own "beauty products" then you'll probably have some of these items on hand already.

    A Homemade Holiday: Woven, Crocheted, Gingham Baby Blanket

    November 15, 2018 /

    For a project that looks complex and time-consuming, this blanket was actually really fast and easy to make. Crocheting the mesh base goes quickly, the chains for weaving go quickly, and the weaving is oddly satisfying!

    Homemade Holiday: Wall-Mount Bookshelf

    November 8, 2018 /

    Here's a fast, easy, DIY gift for the kids this holiday. Today we are making a super simple wall-mounted bookshelf. It's easy enough that a bigger child could do this themselves. This shelf is intended to hold books for kids in bunk beds, but could be good in any room that lacks space for a larger shelf or nightstand.

    A Homemade Holiday: Crocheted Scarf

    I'm kicking off this Homemade Holiday a day early with this crocheted scarf! I'm not sure what the actual name of this stitch is, or if it just has multiple names, but I've seen it called: linen, moss, and granite.
