Forgot to Post Some of the COOL Crafts I've Been Doing....

I have done a few really cute crafts lately.  All of them are super simple and not too hard on my dumb bum shoulder. 

The first one is making suncatchers.  I got this idea from pinterest (where most come from....I am ADDICTED).  Seriously, this is perfect for smaller kids and is SOO easy.  All you need is translucent pony beads and a round cake pan (and an over of course).  So basically, you arrange the pony beads into any design (or non-design) that you like....make sure they are covering all of the space on the cake pan and they are flat (holes up), cook them in the oven at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.  As soon as you get it out of the oven, use scissors or something sharp to put a whole in the top and you have a beautiful suncatcher!  They are so cute!

Here's a few pictures....I will add more later and continue this later as well.......
I got in the mood to go old school- friendship bracelets.  I have always loved these little goodies.  So fun and relaxing to make!
I painted this birdhouse to replace my little wrens house.  The bottom of their current house is almost falling out!  Hopefully, the wren family will appreciate their new, updated digs! 


This is a rainbow sun catcher.  Gotta say this is one of the more fun crafts!  Endless possibilities!
