Creative Notions

I will share fun, easy and thrifty craft ideas for a variety of occasions.  Lilly is a painter and I have a few projects for her.  Handmade gifts from children always become family treasures.  I will post holiday craft ideas over the next few months too.  Anyone who knows me understands my Irish passion.  I can't wait to plan our St. Patrick's Day food and crafts.  We have a few spring birthdays in our house as well.  Decorations on a dime will be a topic to discuss. 

I will have handmade items listed on Etsy at some point in the near future.  I will be sure to share DIY jewelry. 





I experimented with baking glass beads.  I like the cracks they ended up with but I'm still not completely happy with the look.  I want something more distressed looking to create bracelets and other jewelry. 

Trish baked some as well and I think the cracks are more noticeable with the rounds marbles she used.
