Gift Tags

I have been "spring cleaning" because I feel I haven't done a good job at that the last couple of years - lol.  I usually have banners for every holiday and put them up on the mantel in the living room. It helps me and the familyget into the spirit of whatever holiday is up. I had one I really liked but I know I will be doing something different this year, so I decided to make these cute tags. I love gift tags. I especially like to make some and have them on hand ready to use. 

I didn't take a picture of the banner before I took it apart, but basically it was just the string that I cut off. 😅 


These cute snowflakes tags were purchased from the Dollar Store a couple years back.  I removed the silver elastic string off of each snowflake since I will be combining them to the other snowflake from the banner I took apart.




You can use a sharpie and write To & From on the back of the tags, a fun message or they look great as is. I love personalizing items when I can, and this is a great way to do that. These would also be great in a decorated journal, memory book, junk journal or any other fun crafting project. Regardless, they were so fun to make.


I'm currently working on something involving old trophies and mums and I'm not sure what I will do or how they will turn out, but I'm sure it will be fun and interesting.

Until next time, stay safe & warm!

Life handing out lemons .... (Made from cardboard boxes)

  Hi there!  This sign is fun and so cute. I did this using cardboard boxes from deliveries.  I'm not sure why, but I sure do love using cardboard boxes. Maybe it's because I love the way the sides look and I love how light it is. Best of all, I love how easy it is to work with. I love it all!  Well, here it is . . .  Materials used: cardboard boxes, Apple Barrel acrylic paint & some glue. I know this was short and sweet but I hope you have enjoyed.  Until next time    -Maddie  #iplaywithfire  #lasermade  #glowforge  #cardboardboxes  #lifehandingoutlemons  #applebarrel

Redoing Ceramic Garden Mushrooms

Hello! I have decided to redo this cute ceramic garden mushroom. It was hanging out in my front yard for a few years, but it's slowly not looking so great. Not one white spot left on any of the mushrooms. It was time for it to go.  Since this piece was outside, it was subject to a lot of the outdoor elements.  This means it needed a good cleaning. May I also suggest doing that outside. I didn't and yeah, I should have. 😉 Next, I wiped this down with some rubbing alcohol so that I could add a coat of gesso by Liquitex.  Side note: This one bottle has definitely seen better days. 😂 For now, I have decided to just redo the top portion of the mushrooms. I could always go back and do the bottom portion if I change my mind. So for now, just the mushroom tops are being gesso-ed and prepped for paint. 😊   This is it before being sealed. To get these colors, I mixed paints I had on hand. I'm trying to use up some of my older paints so this just works for me right now. 😅  Many co

Halloween Fabric Lavender Sachets

Hey Y'all!   I've been trying to use up a lot of the fabrics that I have because, as of lately, I've been feeling like a little hoarder. 😅 One way I chose to use them was making some cute sachets to put in our dresser drawers. Is that what they're called? 😂. Each side was a different pattern and I love the way they came out. They're so fun! Anthony's French Lavender is what was used since I still had some on hand from another project.  I think I will make some for Christmas. Can you imagine adding some festive scents that make you get excited and feel that Christmas spirit? How exciting! Thanks for popping in and until next time - Maddie
