Even though summer is coming to an end, I will continue to love all things watermelon and pineapple all year round. I found these awesome plain wooden bangles over at Oriental Trading (the possibilities are endless) and I turned them into watermelon DIY wooden bracelets. I love how these watermelon bracelets turned out. They’re fun for all ages too. They’re easy enough to make that even a kid could
Wow I can’t believe it’s already September. It’s still pretty hot here but every so often there is a cool breeze that feels like fall, and I get really excited! I just love everything about fall (what’s not to love) from spending a lot more time outside, watching the leaves change colors, and of course carving and decorating pumpkins.

It is Back to School time, but you don’t have to crack down on the books quite yet! Spend some therapeutic time crafting! Why not prepare for school with these Back to School crafts?

So my kids are seriously obsessed with sand art, and I think I might be a little bit too! There is something so fun about filling something with different layers of colorful sand, and creating different patterns and shapes. And even though a lot of sand art projects are really geared just towards kids, I think these sand art planters are perfect for kids and adults. (Stop by Oriental Trading
I have an exciting announcement that I’ve shared on Instagram, but I’m just now sharing here on my blog. I’ve started contributing for Oriental Trading Company’s blog. Twice a month I’ll be coming up with a tutorial with some of their fun products (like this tutorial on how to paint watercolor ice cream cones). And who knew they had so many awesome things like a great selection of quality art supplies.
I had so much fun painting these watercolor pineapples that I decided to turn them into a pattern. I know pineapples are so perfect for summer, but I love them all year round.
