Cozy Sweater Wine Wrap
I’m the queen of procrastination, especially during the holiday season! So in order to prevent the last minute speeding to the store, half-hazardly throwing something together, and arriving to the holiday party slightly out of breath, I’ve decided to prepare BEFORE the day of the holiday party.

Pear With Me
I realize this isn’t necessarily the most summery of crafts, but you know that old saying about when life hands you paper mache pears, right? Make something with them right away no matter what month it is? I can’t remember who originally said that… but I have this empty bowl in the middle of the
