"OMGOMGOMG I've seen some painted rocks. Tbh, they all looked incredibly difficult to pull off. These, though, seem easy enough. They're also stinkin' cute!"

"These are so cute and easy to make. My friend has quite the eclectic taste, so I'm thinking about making a few of these in different designs for her new apartment. Aside from being coasters, they could even just make great decorative art pieces."

"OMGOMGOMGOMG THIS IS SO CUTE! A cute alternative to wreaths (which seem to be on their way out of style anyway). Love it!"

"Oh wow. These mini flowers are so adorable. I actually have an old lacy dress I've been hesitant to toss out despite it being damaged. Being a hoarder is really about to pay off, y'all. P.S. It's black lace which means this is about to be my favorite flower."

"I have been making my own washcloths for a while and it really is worth it. I have not seen this pattern before so I will add it to my list. I can always find the cotton yarn on sale and it takes no time to crochet one. The textures in the pattern make it a nice washcloth. They wash up nicely and they last a long time. Thank you."

"I love this time of year. The patriotic holidays are near, and it’s the perfect time to craft in red, white, and blue. I was planning to make citronella candles for the summer, so I decided to combine my patriotic craft urge and candle making into one project. DIY Mason Jar Citronella Candles can be made quickly. There’s plenty of time to have them ready in time for the upcoming Memorial Day and July 4 cookouts. Don’t let the mosquitoes ruin your summer fun!"
