I love all things creative and artsy, including design, music, dance, art, scrapbooking, you name it!! I decided to commence this blog in order to create a fun and creative on-line journal showcasing the exciting adventurous journey of the Botbyl family, and in order to keep in touch with and hopefully inspire other individuals, like myself who love to share a wonderful life's design consisting of love of family, friends, and creative living!!

To D.I.Y. for!!

Good Morning!! I have awesome Saturday inspiration for you this lovely spring morning, in the form of creativity and craftiness - things that you can create yourself!!

Photo 1 is from Martha Stewart.com!! What a cute little spring tray which could be used for Drinks, snacks, books, you name it!!
Photo 2, 3, & 4 are from Wendy Woodall at Pinterest.com, which is a neat website where you can post collections of things you love!! These three items, the decorative candlesticks, bright & bold pine cones, & the paint chip bookmarks maybe something that you already decorate with or have use
d before, but without the colorful twist, so It's definitely cool to see how you could take these items one step further just by utilizing vibrant colored spray paint or ribbon!! The 5th photo is from "frugallifeproject.com" & the 6th photo is from "TheMagicofordinarythings.blogspot.com", two creative blogs I just recently came across while searching for some quick inspiring DIY projects!! Last, but not least, the awesome bookshelf idea (photo #7) is from "creamylife.com", and the adorable colorful bird pillow (photo #8) is from "thesoho.blogspot.com".
All of these fun projects could be taken on within the confines of a considerably small budget & time frame, consisting of items that you may already have hiding in your home!! Have an imaginative weekend!!

The cushion is similar to one I've already done, but I'll definitely try the shelf book. Thanks!
