Y’all I have been cray busy with Etsy orders and working on the Dining Room Makeover, not to mention my recent trip out of town to Charleston (you may have seen pics if you follow on Facebook or Twitter)….so my bloggie buddy Janel from NellieBellie has been ever so gracious as to guest post for me with some super fast, fun crafty ideas!
Hi guys!! I am so excited to be here hanging at Melissa’s blog!
I’m Janel…
And I blog at NellieBellie…
I blog about a little bit of everything but I “specialize” in crafts.
That makes me sound like an expert. Trust me, I’m not.
But, I sure do like to make things!
Today, I wanted to show you a few of my favorite quick crafts.
These crafts are less then 30 minutes. Most less then 15 minutes.
Paper plate basket
This little basket is made out of a paper plate. It takes all of 5 minutes. Easy and cute!
DIY Mini Notebook
This little notebook is simply a pad of Post-it’s wrapped in the remnants of a greeting card.
Simple and sweet is sometimes best!
Creepy Google Eye Portrait
Although this was created for a Halloween purpose…it needed be!
Adding google eyes to a thrift store picture is a great way to create art for kids rooms or just to be silly!
Stop by NellieBellie for more quick craft ideas!
Thanks for having me Melissa!!
Thanks for the ideas Janel, that google eye picture definitely set off my “creepy” meter! My boys would love it!
Thanks for stopping by!

Garrett would wig out if I put that out for Halloween! I think I have the biggest scaredy cat kid around. My Halloweens used to be full of gory and guts and now I’m resigned to The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown being about as scary as I can get. We are more Fall Festival folks than Haunted Houses, so that is good.
