Is there an “Easy” button?

What’s that? You aren’t the tiniest bit creative? I’m willing to make you a bet. I bet that you CAN do the projects listed on this page.

I’ve met an awful lot of people in my career who feel exactly like you, and guess what? All of them have been capable of creating beautiful things. Including you. So what if you don’t have any experience? That’s why I’m here! The projects below are designed just for folks who feel like they need a remedial course in the arts & crafts department. We’ll go step by step, use just a few simple supplies, and I promise, you will be making things in no time.

Check out the categories below and choose whatever interests you the most. There are tons of posts available in each category, so when you find something you enjoy, be sure to click below the photos for even more ideas and tutorials. Let’s get going!

LETTERING TUTORIALS

We’re going to start at the very beginning, using your own writing {yes, even if it’s terrible} and any markers and paper you have on hand.
