    Ever since I learned how to make these adorable birds nests here, I have been thinking of other ways to use them.  With spring on the brain and a real bird's nest built outside our front door, I came up with this headband.

  5. Embellished Wood Candlesticks

    Sunday, March 18, 2012


    We moved into a new house last year, and I have been eager to make it feel like home.  There is only so much painting and stenciling one can do at first, so in the meantime I am crafting little projects to give our space my touch.  I fell in love with these wood candlesticks and decided they would be a nice way to add some interest to my master bathroom.
