CRAFT ROOM GIFT GIVING GUIDE 2022

Have you started any of your Christmas shopping? I'll admit, I'm a little more behind this year than normal. I even JUST put up the Christmas tree and decorated my home this past weekend! But that being said, my craft room has been covered with ornaments, tinsel, decorative paper, and everything else Christmas for the last few weeks already as I've been bringing you some new holiday posts in the last several weeks. As a result of that, I can highly recommend some of the item

ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU...FOR MY CRAFT ROOM

We are exactly one month away from the most wonderful time of the year! And while my craft tools have collected a little bit of dust (it's been a good year since I last published a crafty post!), I've been itching to get back in it. And what no better time than the holidays to get started, where crafting is more magical, and glitzier, and funtastic too! I curated a list of tools and supplies that are what every craft room needs, and some which are my personal favourites. Fo

Friends, it is that time of year to shop for Christmas gifts, especially if you like to shop early like me. I started this blog with few things in my craft room, but since then I have been stocking up. Stocking up on items that are useful, helpful, and overall wonderful.

VALENTINE CONFETTI GIFT WRAP

Am I ever in love with this confetti gift wrapping project! To make confetti gift wrap, you really need two things: confetti, which you can either buy in store or whip up yourself, and clear wrapping paper a.k.a. cellophane. I recently traveled to Target and bought the confetti for today's project. I found it in the Valentine's crafts (and it's made by Spritz). If you were to make it, give yourself plenty of time and use a paper trimmer (to make squares) or confetti punch (

A HOLIDAY WISH LIST FOR THE CRAFT ROOM

There's no doubt that if there's one wish list I'm putting out there, it's for the maker (e.g. YOU and me!) and anyone else you know who loves to craft as much as you and I do. First, can we start with the really cool metal chalkboard sign (#2), which you can personalize with any name and date (and at under $20!) The paint chip calendar (#7) is such a nice reminder to think on the bright side, stay positive, and of course, to help you never forget a date! The latest Silhouet

FRESH & FUNCTIONAL ACCESSORIES FOR YOUR DESK

My crafting table and office desk are literally a few feet apart from each other. I roll back and forth in my chair between hot gluing a project and typing a post every time. Maintaining a tidy desk, equipped with all the essentials while also making sure it looks good is fundamental. Which brings me to today's post. Check out these must-have crush-worthy desk accessories that are super functional too! Transparent zipper pencil pouch / Post It pop-up note dispenser / 30" s

STOCKING STUFFERS FOR THE CREATIVE MAKER

Every year I do a post of last minute stocking stuffers for the crafter or DIYer, and I have to make sure I don't title it the same as before. So this year I'm sharing stuffer ideas for the creative maker! It's all the same, right? You may notice some of this year's hottest fads in my selections (the unicorn, cactus, etc.), and there are some picks that are totally worth every cent (the scissors, and foil sheets; what a great deal for those sheets!) So if you know someone wh

A HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE FOR THE CRAFTER IN YOUR LIFE

Every year since I started this blog, I've come out with a crafter's gift guide. Since my little shop and this blog both play a huge part in my life, finding new creative ideas is constantly on my mind. It's also nice to once in a while upgrade my tools, so the list you see below covers a lot on my own wish list too. I'm pining for the new Cricut Maker the most (#3), but a new notebook (#1) for all the lists I make for this here blog would also be useful. A lightbox (#4) h

BACK-TO-SCHOOL PICKS FOR ADULTS OR THE STYLISH TEEN

It seems that my original idea for a back-to-school shopping guide turned into one completely non-kid friendly at all. Unless you are going back to school as an adult, or a stylish teen who knows what she wants, this is more of my curated picks of all the loves I would take with me back to the classroom. There's even a few items here that would look great in a home office (#5 and #9). It's obvious I'm partial to gold, and that's no secret. Marble is trending too, and I'm l

WASHI TAPE HOT AIR BALLOON GARLAND & THE CRAFT STACK

Hubby came with me on a trip to Michaels the other day, which is a rare occasion. I went to buy more paper, and as he browsed, he came upon a washi tape organizer called the Craft Stack, sold exclusively at the store. When he commented it was something that I needed, who was I to argue? HA! I couldn't wait to get it home and organize my washi. The organizer we purchased holds 80+ washi tapes (there was also a larger model available). I clearly don't have enough! Guess who

SAY IT WITH GOLD: GIFT WRAPPING IDEAS & SUPPLIES

I made a cheesy little joke on Insta-story earlier this week. It went something like: "All's gold that ends well". Seriously nerdy, I know. But, I have a long-time romance with gold. I like to wear it, paint it on my fingernails, accent my home with it, and buy every little tool, paper, ribbon, notebook, or stickers with gold in it. So naturally, I thought I would show you ways to create beautiful wrapping using gold as a main colour or accent colour. If you think that I
