Amanda — Sun, 26 Oct 2025 01:53:08 +0000

Create a stunning DIY Fall Floral Grapevine Basket bursting with cozy autumn florals and rustic charm! This easy craft is the perfect way to add warm Fall door decor to your home on a budget.

I am absolutely literally obsessed with this sage green velvety sunflower. Hob Lob for the win!

I saved it for the PERFECT project and this was 10000% it. I love how it looks with the other florals, the feathers, and most of all….the mustard sweater pumpkin.

This Floral Grapevine Basket was SO easy to put together, I’ll show you how in a flash.

I found this grapevine basket at Hobby Lobby for 40% off, and I just HAD to have it. But then, it sat in my stash for literal years until I finally put it to good use.

I started by stuffing the basket with some spanish moss, to fill it up and hide the floral foam I was about to put in.

Then I stuck one block of foam right on in there, keeping it towards the top.

Then, I started arranging the florals one by one! I played with it a bit, moving them around until I got them just right, but I made sure that the green velvety sunflower was front and center.

I added a pretty feather pick ,and to give it those “Fall Vibes” I added the mustard color sweater pumpkin that I stuck on a wood skewer. You could just as easily buy pre-made pumpkin picks.

It needed a lil’ somethin’ somethin’, so I added a lace ribbon shoestring bow, and layered a raffia bow with button on top.

For the hangtag, I very lightly stamped a floral stamp to give it a distressed look in the background, and then I used acrylic alphabet stamps to write “Fall Vibes”. I then glued it to the front of the bow.

When it was all said and done, it was next level GORG! Here she is!

Absolutely in LOVE with how this Fall Grapevine Basket turned out! It looks so cute on my front door!

I thought my Thrifted Floral Watering can was my fave fall DIY, but I think this one now takes the cake!

Muslin Halloween Ghost Rag Garland

Amanda — Fri, 12 Sep 2025 01:54:00 +0000

Bring spooky charm to your home or Halloween party with this DIY Muslin Ghost Rag Garland! This budget-friendly Halloween craft is perfect for a festive traditional Halloween vibe to decorate your home.

I made this Halloween Muslin Ghost Rag Garland live on Facebook, and it was such a fun project to share with everyone! If you missed it, don’t worry you can still catch the replay over on YouTube linked below!

This DIY ghost garland is the perfect mix of spooky and cute, and it’s an easy way to use up fabric scraps or muslin you already have on hand.

If the traditional Orange and Black Halloween isn’t your vibe, you can totally switch up the colors of the rag ties, and even add embellishments like glitter or bows to give them more personality.

Oh and did I mention this one doesn’t require any sewing?! So it’s perfect for anyone who wants a quick Halloween décor DIY.

I don’t have a mantel, but if I DID that’s totally where I would hang this. But whether you hang it across your mantel, drape it over a mirror like me, or use it as a backdrop for your Halloween party, this ghost rag garland is sure to bring festive charm to your space.

Keep reading (or watch the replay!) to see step-by-step how this garland came together.

Definitely watch the replay to see how this is done, but I’ll give you a quick rundown below.

First things first, rip 16 strips of fabric, about 1 ” wide and 10-12″ long. I used 4 different patterns, and ripped 4 pieces of each.

For the ghosts, take a large circle of muslin and drape it over the top of the large wood bead. Then tie a piece of twine around it’s “neck”. Use a black Sharpie to draw on the eyes, and some pink cheap blush to give him some rosy cheeks.

I made three of these ghosts, and on the first one I added a small hangtag that says “THAT’S”…..

The second one I added a small hangtag that says “BOO”….

And the last one has a small hangtag that says “SHEET”!

Now to put this all together onto the twine, you have to follow a certain pattern. From left to right it will be 4 pieces of fabric –> Black wood bead –>> 1st Ghost –> Black wood bead –> 4 pieces of fabric –> Black wood bead –> 2nd Ghost –> Black wood bead –> 4 pieces of fabric –> Black wood bead –> 3rd Ghost –> Black wood bead –> 4 pieces of fabric.

To get these onto the garland, use a larks head knot to tie them around a long piece of twine.

Start by tying on the first 4 pieces of fabric, sliding it all the way down to the far left end of the twine, then add a black wood bead, and then use hot glue to glue the twine to the back of the 1st ghosts head (the one that says “THAT’S”). Then add another black wood bead, tie on 4 more pieces of fabric, and then the ghost that says “BOO”, and so on until you get all three ghosts on and all 4 groups of fabric.

Here it is all put together!

I love it draped over the top of my leopard print mirror, since I don’t have a mantel.

Absolutely in LOVE with how this Halloween Ghost Garland turned out! It looks so cute on my Fall-O-Ween Bookcase too!

DIY Floating Ghost in a Jar

Amanda — Thu, 11 Sep 2025 01:37:49 +0000

This floating ghost in a jar is the perfect mix of spooky and adorable! A simple DIY that lights up your Halloween decor with just the right amount of creepy cute charm!

Halloween crafts are some of my absolute favorites, and this floating ghost in a jar is no exception. It’s cute, a little spooky, and so easy to make with just a handful of supplies you probably already have on hand.

This ghost is made to look like he’s floating in jar above a mini “graveyard” made from moss, a headstone and a pumpkin. The tea light is the perfect touch to give this a spooky, yet creepy cute vibe to keep out all Halloween season long!

This is the replay of a Facebook live from 9.10.25. If you want full written blog post tutorials please check out the other posts on my site.

Supplies needed to make a Floating Ghost in a Jar

Mason Jar
Reindeer Moss
Rust Paste
Twine

Pumpkin
Tea Light
Fishing Line
Hot glue gun

I used Muslin and Creepy cloth to make my ghost, but cheesecloth would work even better. If I had some, that’s what I would have used.

If you have never used Rust Effect Paste, RUN to Amazon and get some! It’s THE best and easiest for giving a faux rust look to every material possible!

Muslin and Creepy Cloth Ghost Sign

Amanda — Fri, 29 Aug 2025 00:01:13 +0000

Gather all the ghosts and ghouls to make this easy, fun, and affordable muslin and not-so-creepy cloth ghost for your DIY Halloween decor this year! Simple, thrifty, and oh-so-BOO-tiful!

I love to craft for Halloween, but I love creepy CUTE, not creepy creepy. And this muslin ghost fits that description perfectly!

I like to give my muslin a grungy look by coffee staining a bunch at a time so that I have it ready to craft with.

I do it the “lazy” way by just mixing some water with instant coffee and then dunking the muslin in and rubbing some of the instant coffee grinds into the muslin to give it some darker spots.

There’s really no rhyme or reason to how I do it and you can’t mess it up!

After I coffee stain it I pop it into the oven at 275 degrees and bake it until dry. Now, you’re ready to make this not-so-creepy cloth ghost and endless other crafts with grungy muslin.

How to Make a Muslin and Creepy Cloth Ghost Sign

I made this Muslin and Creepy Cloth Ghost Sign on video. So you can WATCH the tutorial by clicking below.

Watch the video HERE

To make the background of this adorable ghost sign, you need a wood pallet and a piece of regular ‘ole tissue paper.

Crumple the tissue paper up into a ball and then open it back up so that it has a crinkled look like you see below.

Use a good amount of Mod Podge and decoupage the paper to the wood background, being careful not to smooth it out too much because you want the wrinkles and crinkles to give it the fun texture.

Use a gator sander or sanding block to sand off the excess tissue paper from the edges.

Paint the tissue paper surface all black.

Now for the ghost, mix together some Mod Podge and water in a bowl that you don’t mind ruining. I would say about a 2:1 ration of Mod Podge:Water but it’s not an exact science.

Rip off a piece of muslin and creepy cloth, and submerge it into the Mod Podge water mixture, making sure every bit of the fabric gets covered.

Take the fabric out and shape it into a ghost on your black tissue paper background, making sure the creepy cloth is on the top.

Make a miniature dried flower bouquet by taking some creme dried florals and tying a piece of twine around the stems.

Hot glue the dried flower bouquet into the ghosts “hand”, by tucking it behind a fold in the fabric.

Dry the fabric with a heat gun or let it sit overnight before continuing.

Cut two ovals out of black felt and glue them to the ghosts face.

Tie a rusty bell onto a twine shoestring bow, and glue it to the front of the flower bouquet.

Now for the fun part…the gold leaf starry night background!

Rub a light layer of Mod Podge all over the background, and using your finger, rub bits of the gold leaf all over the background. You can add as much or as little as you like.

Look how neat this looks! As if the night sky above the ghost is lit up with stars!

Here is how the ghost will look once he’s all dried. It may look like the fabric is soft, but it’s actually rock hard.

I’m in love love LOVE with how this Muslin Creepy Cloth ghostie turned out!

Vintage Butterfly Shelf Sitter Decor

Amanda — Fri, 06 Jun 2025 22:17:56 +0000

Spread your crafty wings and fly with this adorable DIY wood butterfly shelf sitter with a vintage vibe. This easy to make decor will take you from Spring, right on into your DIY Summer decor!

I have had this pack of wood butterflies in my stash for waaaayyyy too long. It’s about darn time that I turn them into something cute!

There are so many directions that you could take with this craft, depending on your style. And if you know me at all, I change my style as much as my underwear!

On this particular day, I was in a more vintage-y vibe, so vintage-y we went.

And I am SOOOO happy that I did! If you aren’t a VVP (Vintage Vibe Person – yes I just made that up), then you could go super fun and bright with typical springy colors and this project would be just as cute.

Supplies needed to make a Vintage Butterfly Shelf Sitter

How to Make a Vintage Butterfly Shelf Sitter

I made this Vintage Butterfly Shelf Sitter on video. So you can WATCH the tutorial by clicking below.

Watch the video HERE

Here is the pack of Vintage Scrapbook paper that I went with to determine the whole vibe of how this project was going to go. Its a small 6×6 book, so perfect for the smaller butterflies.

I first stained the back and the outer edges of the 3 butterflies with Waverly Antique Wax and a baby wipe.

I then stained 4 wood shims as well (these were the 8″).

When I lined up the 3 butterflies on the shims, the base ended up being a tad too long, so I trimmed the end of 2 of the shims so that it was the perfect size once I had them glued together.

I then glued the shims together in two sets of two.

So I applied hot glue to the top of one shim, and glued another on top, making sure the thick end lined up with the thin end, so that it makes one even wood base.

I then glued them together, end to end, to make one long base.

Next, I traced the wood butterflies onto 3 different pieces of scrapbook paper and cut them out.

Apply the scrapbook paper to the butterfly using a thin layer of Mod Podge to decoupage it on top.

Sand off any excess paper using the best tool ever….a Gator Sander!

Using a finger dauber, apply the Kilz Dark Wax to the edges of the butterflies to distress and grunge it up.

Glue a stick to the center of the butterfly to make the “body”.

Cut two small pieces of rusty wire for “antennas” and glue them to the top of the butterfly with E6000.

I made a messy fabric bow using my Bowdabra, but you can make any type of bow that you like. This bow is for the center Butterfly, as the main event, so I wanted it a little “more” then the other 2.

For the other 2 butterflies I made what I call my Twine “figure 8 bow”. Just wrap the twine around your fingers a bunch of times until it’s as big as you want.

And then tie a piece of twine around the center.

Glue the twine bows to the front center of 2 of the butterflies, and then glue a small button to the center of each.

To make the hangtag I layered muslin on top of kraft paper. I first stamped the word “Spring” onto a piece of muslin and then ripped that out.

Then glued the muslin to a piece of grunged up Kraft paper.

Add a loop of twine and glue the hangtag to the center of the messy fabric bow with a small button on top.

Now to put it together! Glue the butterflies standing up on the wood base lined up. We are going to add jenga blocks for reinforcement so don’t worry about them falling over.

Glue two Jenga blocks to the back of each butterfly to help then stand up and make them nice and sturdy.

Finish it off by gluing a smidge of Spanish Moss around the bottom of the butterflies on the base.

Here is the center butterfly all done!

And a look at one of the outer butterflies too……

Here is a better look at how they are reinforced on the back.

Absolutely in LOVE with how this Vintage Butterfly Shelf Sitter turned out!

Rusty Spring Bunny

Amanda — Fri, 25 Apr 2025 23:15:07 +0000

Make an adorable SPRING bunny that’s not just for the spring season, but made with a rusty bedSPRING too! This cute and affordable DIY will have you hopping right into Easter and through Spring!

I am quite literally obsessed with bedspring crafts!

My crafty Facebook friend gave me a bunch to craft with, but you can also get them on Etsy.

This is just another way that you can make an adorable Bunny for spring and Easter.

If you want another adorable Bunny idea, check out this Corrugated Cardboard Bunny I made too. It’s affordable and FUN!

Supplies needed to make a Rusty Spring Bunny

Bedspring
Rust Effect Paste
Muslin
Coordinating fabric and ribbon
Black Sharpie
Wood Carrots
Dried white flowers
Twine
Wired Jute
Poly-Fil
Small wood heart
Floral Fabric
Burlap
Paint: Orange, White, Green
Small pink buttons
Pink Blush and Finger Dauber

How to Make a Rusty Spring Bunny

I made this Rusty Spring Bunny on video. So you can WATCH the tutorial by clicking below.

Watch the video HERE

First things first, we have to rust the spring with our Rust Effect Paste. This stuff is pricey, but it is UH-MAZ-ING and so worth it! And, it’s easy to use. Of course you don’t HAVE to rust your spring if it’s not your style.

To use the paste, you first dab on a layer of the brown using a paint brush or foam brush.

Then dry that, and dab on a layer of the orange on top. You don’t want to cover it entirely in orange, just here and there and heavier in some areas, like natural rust would be.

For the bunny head, take a ball of poly-fil and put it in a square of muslin, then wrap the muslin around it and tie it off.

If you have a rubber band or hair tie, it’s much easier then trying to tie twine around it (unless you have an extra set of hands to help!). Once you have the rubber band around it, you can then tie it off with twine.

Cut off all the excess muslin.

For the bunny ears, freehand cut a large ear on a piece of burlap. Then use that ear as a template to cut the second ear so that they are the same size and shape.

I freehand drew the “inner ear” onto a piece of pretty floral fabric and then cut that out.

Use hot glue to attach it to the center of the burlap ears.

Then, pinch and glue the ears into a kind of accordion fold at the bottom, so that they are ready to glue to the top of the Bunnies head.

Then glue them to the top of the head.

For the nose, paint a small wood heart pink.

For the whiskers, wrap 4 pieces of wired twine around a paint brush to give them a curly look.

I used some cheap blush to give the bunny pink rosy cheeks using a finger dauber.

Then glue on your whiskers first with your nose on top of them.

Draw on super simple small black circle eyes with a Sharpie.

And then give the eyes some life and personality with a tiny white dot in the center. I used the end of a wooden skewer to get the dot small enough.

Time for the bow! Rip a bunch of coordinating fabric into about 1″ strips (as long as you like, the longer the fabric the longer the “tails” of the bow will be).

I used some pretty floral that I used for the ears, some tye-dye salmon color, coffee stained muslin, and a creme newspaper fabric. I use a Bowdabra to make my bows and I LOVE it, but you definitely don’t need one to make a bow.

Just start layering them in the Bowdabra, one strip after the other until its as big and full as you like, and then tie it off with twine.

I also made a smaller bow for the bunnies ears.

Glue the small bow to the top of the bunnies head by the base of the ears.

Then glue the bunnies head to the top of the spring, and the bigger bow where the spring meets the head on the left side.

I painted some wood dollar tree carrots for embellishments. I added a bit of Kilz Darl Wax to them to grunge them up.

And I glued them to the front of the spring using E6000.

For the finishing touches a glued in a bit of dried white flowers into the bows, and it was just what it needed!

Here she is allllllll done! I am in love with her!
