A spring flower-cuterie board might have you scratching your head.  But the trendy, traditional charcuterie has morphed into so many creative versions I thought trying it in a decorative way would be fun!  Instead of food why not cluster pretty little bouquets on a board to create a seasonal centerpiece? It doesn’t have to be elaborate and you don’t need to have floral arranging skills to make one either! The season offers up all kinds of beautiful options that you can often find right outside your door!  Let me share how simple it can be to bring snippets of springtime to your table or any celebration you might be planning…

DIY decorations are so much fun to create at any time of the year…but there’s something about Halloween that makes them extra fun!  I think that this holiday is so whimsical and lighthearted that even a novice DIY-er (like myself) can let their creativity shine with easy projects that have plenty of wiggle-room where perfection is concerned!  Recently my husband and I joined a supper club and I’m dying to host a small soiree this month…so holiday touches will be mandatory for my table!  Let me share some of the decorations I’ll be using…and I’ll show you how to make them too!

Do you remember sand art projects as a kid?  Simple containers filled with whimsical layers of color in soft, beach-swept patterns!  Sand art creations are so intriguing and very easy to make, which is why they’re a top pick for crafting with the kiddos!  And bonus…they’re still as fun to create as an adult as it was as a kid so why not make a grown-up version!?  Today I’d like to share a really fun and easy project that can be turned into a unique centerpiece for any room…all inspired by craft sand!  I decided to head to the craft store to grab some sand supplies to make something fun for my table and was also thrilled to discover how inexpensive the jars of colored sand actually were!  So I grabbed a few of my favorites and came straight home to complete my crafty task!  I adore projects that are quick and easy…see how simple it is to make a summer inspired centerpiece!
