Summer is here and you know what that means, spray painting season! There is nothing I love more than personalizing, whether that means painting or adding little handmade touches. Summer is such a great time to get your creativity flowing and create something beautiful! There is something about the sun pouring in a window that is energizing and motivating, besides being great for pictures!
With the kids home during the summer we love making fun things that can either involve them or be displayed in their rooms like these: bean bags from socks, teddy bear hooded towel and toddler pillowcase.
Thanks to BlogFrog, I found the Home Made Simple site that has some really cute summer crafts for kids along with other fabulous ideas for the home.
I was also excited to find the Home Made Simple Marketplace where I can buy handmade items (like those requiring advance sewing skills). Combining Facebook with a handmade marketplace was ingenious! Social media meets women’s small business is as close to awesome as you can get.
I have not sold my creations in any way, but if I did this would probably be a great way to start where I could list just a couple of items.
So, how about you? Have you had your creative juices flowing this summer? Have you taken advantage of the prime painting weather or made something special for a party? I would love to hear what fun projects have been occupying your time!
