If you didn’t know by now, I’m a knitter. And I like to think of myself as a crafty person… but I need patterns and inspirations to follow (I can’t just think of something off the top of my head. Here are some websites/ideas/inspirations for crafts and projects that I want to do…)

Wine Crafts

(we love wine in our house...we even have a mini wine cellar in the basement! We love to go on tastings!) ...so we have a lot of wine bottles. I’ve been making crafts over the years and here are a few on my list:

- Sea Glass Bottles from the Recycling Bin for Coastal Decor (they sold bottles like this in Maine and they were so expensive! I definitely wanted to try to make my own!)

How to Make Your Own Wine Bottle Lights (I want to hang these on our little outdoor patio!)

Layer Colored Marbles Inside a Wine Bottle Tiki Torch (and put these on the table – they’re filled with citronella to keep the bugs away!)

flattened wine bottle serving dish (and serve cheese and crackers on here!)

Flower Petal Candle Holders with all the petals that fall of my flowers in the garden, this is perfect!

DIY Garden Kneel Pad how cute are these? And now that I’m older my body could definitely use the extra padding in the garden!

DIY Foam Cactus Sign I want to put this in my garden!

Free, easy tote bag pattern to sew I want to make these for charities for kids who might not be able to afford their school supplies

How To Make Wire Photo Holders We have so many pictures throughout the house – this is such a cute and inexpensive way to display them. Also, super cute gifts!

DIY Marble & Copper Foil Chargers We always host parties and dinners and marble serving-ware is so expensive. These are so nice!

Free Cross Stitch Patterns (really getting into this as I get older)
