FREE CRAFT:Make Your Own Sparkling Ice Wreath Bird Feeder

Hi Everyone! I am very excited to share with you a new section on the blog- Crafting! I have shared a small handful of my DIY posts with you and want to share even more! So I have brought on a partner! My beautiful and talented Momma! She has been crafting and making floral arrangements since she can remember! She did my own wedding flowers and my best friends!

We want to share with you crafts that are cute, frugal, and FAST! I challenge you this year to not get caught up in searching and searching and searching on Pinterest for the perfect craft and get overwhelmed- (Kinda like my husband and I do with Netflix when trying to pick something to watch) and join us here for our Crafts!!

Take it away Tari!

The Holidays are over and so is the hustle and bustle.  It’s now time to take care of our feathered guests.  Here is a sweet treat of a Little crafting to take some time to rest and watch the birds find your gift to them. I love this time to just sit and reflect. I hope you do too! Take care and I’ll be with you next time with another quick craft.
