Gone Crafty

I was sitting down looking through my closet and under my bed one day and I realized that over the last year I have made quit a few crafts. With each one that I have made I have had to find a place to store it as well as a place to store the leftover materials that I used to make it in the first place. This would result in me trying to find space in my closet or under my bed for my latest craft. As it turns out, I have pretty much run out of room in either of those places.

As I was looking through them to find room I figured that I would share them with all of you. They were all pretty easy to make and I had a lot of fun making them in the process. Some took longer then others and I had a few adventures with a couple of them. Some produced burnt fingers, smashed thumbs, cut hands, and some frustration. All in all though,I have to say I that I had a good time with them, and I think they turned out pretty cute.

This is the first cake that I decorated with fondant (I made it for Brett's B-day)


Kendra's Birthday Cake


Sayings on wood boards


Yarn Balls
(I started making them for Operation Smile to take with them when they go to other countries as toys for the kids)


Jean Quilt



Easter Blocks


Plate


Scrapbooking (Yes, there are more pages then this)



Pumpkins out of Jars (Wendi showed me how to make these)


Advent Calendar (This one is my moms because I gave the one I made to Wendi for her birthday and I still have not finished my own yet)


Gingerbread House


Signs (This would be from the most recent craft night with Wendi)
Mine

Wendi's


And the current craft that I am working on is an Afghan. I think it will turn out pretty cute. After I am finished with this I will be moving on to pillows.


Let me know if you have any great ideas for crafts in the future. I would love to learn how to make them.
