Lemon Thistle
DIY, Hand Lettering + Home Decor
You guys know as a DIY blogger I value creativity, but not just for me- for my kiddos as well. I actually wrote a whole post a while back on crafting with toddlers (without the stress) if you’re thinking I’m totally crazy. But today I just wanted to pop in and let you know that …
Today I’m excited to be over at By Dawn Nicole sharing my favourite way to cheat gold foil. If you’ve been reading Lemon Thistle for a while, I’m sure you’ve seen me use this technique on many projects, but I thought it was high time I devoted a whole post to my fave faux gold …
I have such a fun afternoon craft for you all today. It really is only a 10 minute craft… plus dry time. So you can be playing puppets by the end of the afternoon. I’m over at Honest to Nod, the Land of Nod blog sharing this simple Puppet Theatre sign. But it’s a fun …
How is Mother’s Day THIS weekend? I seriously feel like it’s still March. Except it’s warm and there’s lilacs blooming. But really… time is flying this spring! So if you’re like me and forgot that it’s coming up (sorry mom) then I’ve got you covered- for a Mothers Day Card at least. This mothers day …
It’s been a couple years since I shared the most fun baby shower ever– a Mexican fiesta, complete with margaritas and a piñata. But a couple months back I got a sweet email from a reader who was throwing a fiesta baby shower of her own but for a baby boy. She loved the printable fiesta …
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of The Clorox Company . All opinions are 100% mine. You guys know how much I love to craft (after all, that’s what I write about half the time), but sometimes it’s nice to craft with others around you. When I was invited to participate …
This is such a fun post to be sharing! Now that we’ve finished our built in shelving, our basement is becoming a usable space. The kids have been calling this under the stairs nook their ‘play closet’ for a while now, so I thought I would make it a bit more fun for them with …
Oooh I have a bit of a technical post for you. BUT if you’re interested in handlettering, and rad cut outs… this one is for you! I’m over at By Dawn Nicole sharing how I get my hand lettering digitized to turn it into a hand lettered cut out that can be used for anything from …
Whew! You guys, this one is a doozy. It feels so good to have it done, we kind of feel like it’s the best thing that we’ve made. Like our kitchen is pretty awesome- but you are given the pieces and just have to assemble. This? custom built in shelving unit was built from scratch. …
If you remember forever ago, I updated my spice drawer and have ever since been saying I need to get my pantry items in order. I’m so happy to tell you that I FINALLY did! And you can too. And it won’t cost an arm and a leg. I actually put it off for so …
I am head over heels with this DIY hoop painting, you guys. Like- I kind of want to make one for every room of my house but am fast running out of wall space. Every time I walk buy this DIY Brushstrokes Art in an Embroidery hoop it makes me all kinds of happy. I …
‘Don’t bother buying anything nice until your kids move out’. Have you ever heard that? I have (a lot) and I’m kind of sick of it. I think you can and should have things that make you happy to look at, be around, and use in your home. So go buy yourself something nice for …
