Things that caught my eye

Pinned a few new items on Pinterest recently that caught my idea. Some are things I could do and some are just things I liked. These candles are cute This caught my eye because I actually have a heart punch and the little flower punch. And I have some ink and red dotted paper. I may have to try my hand at this later today.


They used the little strawberry to make cards. How cute and simple is this.


With St. Patrick's Day coming up, this would be cute for my Children's Church craft project. Super simple to cut out and glue together.


And check out the cute little gift jar. I don't care for the big ribbon, but what I did like was the fact that this is simply a coffee filter that they used a scrapbook punch to do the edges. I would never have thought of that.


I think this would be a cute Mother's Day idea. We could put artificial flowers in a tin can and then pull fabric up around the can and tie it with a ribbon. I have an empty can from supper last night that I may try this with to see how it works.


Another thing I saw that was cute was to take a muffin tin and use food coloring and water in each cup. You dip coffee filters in them either one color or several to make it multi-color. Then you let them dry and make flowers out of the coffee filters. 


How cute is this for a beach room? You could do it in any type of closed container, not just a lantern. I saw one somewhere that did it in a big apothecary jar. May have to do this for my beach bathroom.


Now to just make note of all these great ideas somewhere so I don't forget them.
