Coffee-Stained Paper {Craft Challenge, Day 135}

Sarah White May 14, 2016 Paper Crafts and Drawing0 Comments

I have a confession to make: I almost never finish a cup of coffee. I drink some at breakfast, usually make a to-go cup to take when I take the girl to school, drink a little in the car, sometimes have a little while I’m doing chores or other morning …

Sarah White May 1, 2016 Painting / Paper Crafts and Drawing1 Comment

One thing that is a fun creative challenge is to combine different materials or genres of art or craft into the same project. I know somewhere once I saw a list of a bunch of different crafty mashups, and I’m pretty sure I pinned it, but of course now I …

Yesterday we talked about pulling together supplies to make an art journal — or any other kind of DIY journal you like! — and I mentioned that we’d be putting the pages together in signatures for this project. Each signature is like its own little book, and depending on the …

I’ve been seeing a lot of stuff lately about making your own sketchbooks and art journals, and I thought it would be a great use for some of the embarrassingly massive collection of paper I have. I wanted to spread the process out over several days because we don’t need …
