100 Projects to Create Joy
Project 29: Bedroom Redesign
These next couple posts will be focused on some of the places I have revamped in our apartment to make them just a little cozier. For me, my home often mirrors the state of my brain and so a calm and cozy home means a calm mind but a home that is full of clutter…
Project 28: Sun Tea
I often joke that I am turning into my grandparents – I always have a pitcher of fresh homemade iced tea like my grandma and I eat raisin bran cereal for breakfast daily like my grandpa. Family and friends also often tell me that I’m turning into a grandma but I think the connotation is…
Project 27: Wood Painting Projects
Two or three years ago, I started to see a bunch of shops pop up that were wood painting workshops for signs, trays, etc. As a lover of crafts, I always appreciate seeing new types of crafting shops pop up that are a bit different than pottery or sip-n-paint spots (not that I don’t love…
Project 26: Make a Sour Dough Starter
There a million articles and blogs out there about making a sour dough starter. I started making sour dough about 6 years ago now and for a long time I made it on a weekly basis. Because there’s so much out there on sour dough starters themselves, this post will be mostly focused on just…
Project 25: Tile Coasters
A shout out to my friend Chrissy who introduced me to this project! These coasters were super fun to make and worked with modge podge which I haven’t used much of before (except to preserve puzzles – more on that later). Quick project summary: To make these coasters, I started with bulk plain white square…
Project 24: Painted Pot
Overall, I love apartment life – everything is convenient and easy but living during covid means that I’ve been reminded of a few things I don’t love about apartments. Most notably, the fact that we don’t have personal space to grill and garden. That said, we’re very lucky to have a pretty spacious balcony (for…
Project 23: Straw Clutch
I enjoy crafting just for the sake of it but every once in a while, I find a project that I personally love a bit more than my typical projects – these straw clutches and the straw beach totes I made later are one of them! I made these over the summer and gave them…
Project 22: Smoothie Bowl
I’m not sure who made smoothie bowls popular but I feel as though I owe them a personal thank you. Smoothie bowls are one of my favorite treats and any day that includes a smoothie bowl is a good one. While I most often buy smoothie bowls, I sometimes feel inspired to make them at…
Project 21: “Homemade” Soap
“Homemade” soap is a project I’ve been doing for about 6 years and I make it almost annually. It’s overall a fairly easy, albeit messy, project and I love that the outcome is both useful for me and as gifts. That said, I call this soap “homemade” (note the quotes) because it’s really more that…
Project 20: Natural Dye with Avocado Pits
It’s guest blogger time again! And thankfully my friend and fellow book club member is jumping on the quarantine dye trend with me. Jessica is one of the most resourceful and creative crafters I know so get ready for a fun project that you can do with stuff you already have at home! Also, important…
