Craft Carnival

In my spring craft post I showed how to make Spring blocks & showed the chick I made. I actually made these at a craft night, hosted by two sisters that love crafting. They hold monthly craft nights in Utah and have a blog, called Craft Carnival. They provide a lot of choices at very affordable prices. I went last month for the first time and really enjoyed myself! Crafting is so relaxing and a form of entertainment to me. Best of all, the money you spend on entertainment becomes a household decoration, yeah! Even better, they are now offering a 5 for 5 referral program. If you refer 5 friends you'll get $5 off your next craft. So in this case, if you register, be sure to enter me, Calissa, as your referral please!

This is a great chance to get your girlfriends together to do a craft night. Hint hint, my local friends ;)  If you live out of state or can't make it you can order a kit to be shipped or picked up, which is great for all my friends that live out of state. Here are the crafts they are offering this month (pictures taken from Craft Carnival blog). Prices range from $5-$20. I would love to see some of you there!

The craft night is set for April 30th, from 5-9 pm. There is a deadline to sign up and pay, so click here to sign up!They also have a Facebook page, which will link you to their blog. Check out the page and blog for more details and exciting news!

Spring Blocks & Chick

It's always fun to buy decorations, but what about making them on your own and then using them to decorate your house? This=fun!

You'll Need:

• 6- 2x4 blocks (sanded)
• Sponge paintbrushes
• Spring colored paints (6 different shades)
• Scrapbook paper (preferably 6 different pages)
• Cut out letters that spell S-P-R-I-N-G
• Craft glue stick or mod podge
• scissors/paper cutter
• Sand paper (optional effect)

 1. Sand down any rough edges on all of your 2x4 blocks. Blow off any dust and paint each block, with a different spring color. Allow the blocks to dry completely.

 

2. In the meantime, cut six different scrapbook pages, to cover the width and height of the front of the six blocks. 

 

3. Once the blocks are dry, glue the paper on the face of the block

 

4. Now, glue each letter to a different block, spelling SPRING.

5. If you'd like, sand the edges of the block to give it an antique look. Otherwise you are all done!

I also made this adorable chick! I added my own flair by tying ribbon into a bow and gluing it on to make my chick a girl. My spring decorations are complete, look below!
