Scrap Wood Photo Blocks

I love these photo blocks from Juggling Act Mama are adorable! I love the colors and the patterns - and the fact that they're made from scrap wood.

Mason Jar Blessings.

I think it's wonderful when we can take just a few minutes each day to see the blessings in our life. Crafts by Courtney has a fabulous idea to quickly write them down and put them in a jar. It would be so fun to use these in a scrapbook or collage at the end of the year. What a fun way to look back at the year and see all the good that happened!

Scrap Fabric Trees

  Make some fun little Christmas trees with some scrap fabric.  Creations by Kara will show you how.

Fabric Wrapped Accent Balls

I tend to highlight projects that could be used in many different ways.  For example, Makoodle made these fabric balls.  They would be great to use some left over scraps from bedding or pillows as highlights and accents in a room!    I love that this is a clean projects (no mess)!

See the fabric-wrapped accent balls.

Fabric Bandaids

My darling daughter is a little on the dramatic side when she gets an ouchie!   She can cry for hours over a simple little scratch that doesn't even bleed.  (Anyone else have a child like this?)   I'm thinking some beautiful fabric bandaids would make her feel so much better when she gets hurt!  Love this idea from Twigg Studios.  This would be a great way to use scraps.

See how to make the fabric plasters (bandaids).

Sewn Valentine's

There's just a few hours left to make a homemade Valentuine's that shows you REALLY love someone!   Blooming Mommy sewed some leftover material onto cardstock and then stitched a word in it!  It's beautiful and shows you care!

See the homemade sewn and stitched valentine.

Scrappy Fall Tree Pillow

I love this scrappy fall pillow at Pickup Some Creativity. The fabrics she used look so good together and the stitching adds great detail. That would look so fun on a couch or a chair.
