I've been in manic creative mode lately. This usually happens as visible signs of fall start to emerge, but its especially strong this year. Combined with all of my nesting urges from our upcoming move, it makes for one crafty Katy!
A couple projects I've been mulling over:
- Holiday-themed candles as Christmas gifts for family members.. I"ve already begun toying with lovely little labels for each scent.
- Pinecone firestarters.. During our last visit with Adam's family, I spent some time collecting a mountain of pinecones from their front yard. I want to dip them in some spicy fall-flavored scent and package them up as firestarters for my mom and dad. Its a shame our new place only has a gas stove - I'd want to have a few for myself!
- Wirebound journals. After a particularly depressing search for a hardcover, wirebound, lined journal to keep time logs at work, I have had ideas of making up my own custom ones and having them bound up at a local print shop.
Anyone have stories of similar projects?
