Make a Wish as a Family with this Cool Holiday Craft

Family Holiday Wishlist feature

I’m over at the OC Family today showing you how to make this cute ribbon family wishlist. Do your remember the days as kid when you couldn’t wait to leaf through the ginormous Sears holiday catalog? This craft is a fun visual and interactive way to capture all of your holiday wishlists for everyone in the family.

Crafting with Clear Chalkboard Coating

I had the pleasure of trying out a new craft product from DecoArt recently, and had to share my results. I made a cute chalkboard wall calendar for my tween, and some darling wall hangers. The best part is that the chalkboard coating is CLEAR, so it won’t change the color of your surface, and can add a chalkboard surface to many different things. Love it!
