Quilled Leaf Sprigs Are Perfect For Shavuot!
I just couldn’t resist sharing this craft from three years ago when I was delving into paper quilling. Now I’m thinking I really need to start doing art with kids again so I can put to use all those quilling supplies that are waiting to see the light of day! Enjoy! Shavuos, the holiday of greenery is coming Sunday night, so why not start quilling some lovely leaves? Paper quilling isn’t one of those crafts that you can whip up quickly, but it is oh so lovely, and can be done in spare moments just about anywhere, so give it a try! These little quilled leaf sprigs look so fabulous…

Paint An Old Shoe With Graffiti Hearts!
This has to be one of my crazier ideas, but I just couldn’t resist and it was relatively quick, so here’s to whimsical upcycled art! And while this might seem like it is coming out of left field, just a bit, this could also be a craft for Lag B’Omer, you know just in case you’ve already made more bonfires, caves, and arrows than you can bear. Because my friends, Rebbi Shimon, whom we celebrate on Lag B’Omer was all about ahavas yisrael, Jewish unity! And what more fitting than a bunch of hearts that together comprise a wonderful lively piece of well, funky decor? And honestly, who couldn’t use…

DIY Cardboard Graffiti Vase For Spring!
Now that I have a few fun DIY cereal box vases which I think will be fun for Passover, maybe I can get started with the cleaning. Well, not just yet, I need to make some more! The idea of whipping up an artful vase using cereal box cardboard (or heavy weight paper) is just so delighful that you'll want to give this a try. This is a great idea for budget centerpieces, or for making a huge decorative vase for a desert table or buffet, and the possibilities are endless. Choose to do a cardboard vase with drips and splatters or go for a something simple and colorful, or…

Simple Painted Treat Boxes From The Recycling Bin!
We are about to apparently welcome some snow so I’ll make this quick as I need to go cover my succulents and bring others indoors! I have quite a collection of little food and medicine boxes that I hope to use someday for a big installation of some kind, not to mention match boxes, but in the mean time, there is nothing quite as sweet as little painted treat boxes. (Or just make some artufl painted matchboxes for shabbat, a fun gift!) Purim is a great time to get creative with fun and artful packaging, so why not gather as many boxes as you can find, get out the paint…

Mini Graffiti Hearts Painting, Third Time Is A Charm!
If this looks a bit familiar to you, it is! I shared this painting a few weeks ago here, where I also described how it was painted. Honestly the colors just were not working in our home, so I decided to keep on painting tiny hearts, this time in colors that would work and phew, after another couple hundred or so hearts that covered up the previous hearts, a new pastel version of my original mini graffit hearts painting was born! So this technically is also a recycling craft, I just can’t get away from them! We don’t have any holidays on the Jewish calendar that involve giving heart shaped…

Milk Carton Houses With Graffiti Hearts!
I really can’t count the times I’ve planned to make milk carton houses, nor how many milk cartons I have packed away in the basement for those dream projects, but I can report to have taken one tiny step forward with these milk carton heart graffiti wall houses! I realize it sounds like I’ve never made milk carton houses, silly me, I certainly have, twice, milk carton house planter, and doodled millk carton houses. I’ve been all about hearts lately, and while the hearts I’ve been painting haven’t exactly been graffiti hearts, lets just pretend they are, and certainly when painted on a milk carton house they can be! And…
