Using Mirrors For Your Wedding Table
By Ana
Use mirrors for a pretty and unique way to dress a table. 75% of my items come from the dollar store and I can make several different themes/looks for different types of weddings, from traditional, beachy, fall, etc.

I have never liked candy corn, and recently I learned that most people don't. But I do love the colors and this was a fun and easy project to share with you.
Christmas Decorated Lighted Jars
By Jackie H.
I made these with fall decorations and now did a few for the Christmas table we will have at our fall festival. I love the beauty of the pine, the seasonal decorations, and the ribbons!

Here are two examples of Halloween hair accessories you could make from googly eyes and a spider ring (purchased from the Dollar Tree).

I love making corner bookmarks with my nieces and nephews, and this vampire version is super fun with its little bat wings. This is a great craft for all ages, so follow along to fold your way into making this book and magazine placeholder!

I made this shallot ornament for a coworker for Christmas. The main part of the shallot is made with two identical pieces so that the green part could be sandwiched between the pieces. The details are all backstitched on and the pieces are sew together using a backstitch around the outer edges. The roots are created with embroidery floss.
