Mini Outdoor Ice Wreath


If you, like me, live in a place where the temperatures hover around (or under) freezing, even during the day all winter, you might find yourself limited to do some outdoor things due to the weather. But constant cold has it’s advantages, like these pretty little ice wreaths.

Things you’ll need:
Mini Bundt pans
Ribbon
Water
Berries and/or herbs

Things to do:
1. Fill the pan about halfway with water and then add the berries or herbs, arranging them in the pattern. Pop them in the freezer until hard.

2. Settle the ends of a length of ribbon onto the ice and add more water to cover. Set in the freezer until hard again.

3. Once frozen, pull the pans out of the freezer for a minute to let the surface thaw slightly and then turn the wreaths out. Hang outside in the shade out of direct sunlight to help them last longer.

Mini Spool Sewing Pins


If you have a sewer in your life, then you have sewing pins. And while sewing pins are, primarily, workhorses, there’s no reason they can’t be fun as well. These cute little spool pins make a great adornment for your pincushion while still remaining useful. While we wrapped ours in patterned tape, you could use paper, ribbon or even thread to decorate yours!

Things you’ll need:
Mini spools
Washi tape or ribbon
Craft glue
Bead headed sewing pins (quilting/corsage pins)

Things to do:
1. Wrap the tape or ribbon around the center of the spool, filling the space where the thread would go on a real spool. Optionally you can cover the top of the spool as well.

2. Add a generous amount of glue to the top of the pin and insert it into the hole, just inside the bottom of the spool.


3. Allow the glue to dry before using.
