New Crafts! Part 2

I thought I would break up the new crafts post into two parts so there wasn't so much to look at in one post! 
"HOME" Blocks


I saw these blocks and thought they were so functional and could save on storage space.  That website sells the vinyl and I have a Silhouette so I wanted to do my own vinyl. We stained our blocks, but you could paint them or do whatever you wanted. If you do use stain we had to put on two coats of polycrylic protective finish to get the vinyl to stick.

The vinyl just wouldn't stick on the stain, even after waiting awhile to let it dry. This worked so well that we used it for our next project too.
Grateful Signs

This project turned out so fantastic! We originally were going to have a bunch of different felt flowers, but we loved how these turned out that we just stuck with these. We stained the board and had to use the polycrylic finish to have the vinyl stay. These were just so awesome!
Thanksgiving Centerpieces


I really wanted to do a centerpiece this month. Luckily all the fall stuff was on sale, because can you believe it, all the stores have Christmas decorations out!!!! I love when we do crafts that we buy all the same stuff, but the end product always turns out different and unique to us!! I really liked this project because it was something totally different from what we normally do. We mostly do a lot of wood projects, but this was so much fun! 
I hope from this two part post you can get some ideas, or that you just had fun looking at what we've done. Thanks for visiting!
