Reversible Wood Block Craft
I love creating wood block decorations, both for my own décor, and as gifts for friends. They’re super easy to make, and they can be customized to fit anyone’s style and color scheme. I made these wood blocks for a friend, using a Christmas-theme on one side, and an everyday theme on the other. I’ll walk you through the steps here.

Romantic Congratulations Cards
Since I just had one friend get married and a cousin get engaged, I thought I’d share the congratulations cards I made for them. I hope these ideas inspire you and help you celebrate milestones with those you love!

Simple Card Ideas: Playful Borders
So, I’m a bit of a perfectionist. (And that’ a bit of an underestimate…) What does this have to do with me sharing simple card ideas?
My perfectionism can make it hard for me to start making a craft or card knowing I am not going to have the energy to make it elaborate. I have the tendency to think that if I’m going to craft, I have to CRAFT. As in, all-caps, all-out, something new and creative that uses all the crafting skills I’ve acquired over my life.
Not super realistic right now due to my health.
I’ve been trying to embrace more simplistic forms of creativity. Something doesn’t have to be intricate in order to turn out beautiful.
After all, some of the best cards I’ve ever received are simple handmade ones from friends with heartfelt messages inside.
It really is the message and the thought that counts. And a card that’s made simply and received is better than a card that is never sent.
