Spring Decor and DIY Pitcher with Quote

Happy ALMOST weekend my friends!

I have been having a blast crafting lately!

And I am SO in love with spring and spring decor.

My projects lately have been ohhh so exactly what I would call "Jaime" projects.

They are meaningful, they are simple and so I love them.

"Jaime" projects are

projects that I am enjoying, I kind of, sort of, feel like I am getting back to the basics of my crafting and creating---

which is kind of exactly what I was doing when I first started blogging...

and I think that is okay.

Kind of fun.

Kind of cool.

I just did a simple up-cycle with this pitcher that I picked up last spring.

I stamped on a favorite and meaningful quote with my most favorite craft "thing" at the moment---

my dollar section alphabet stamp set.

I used StazOn ink because it is a permanent ink that will adhere to shiny surfaces.

I think the quote added a lot and it made the pitcher special to me.

I am linking up to a few of my most favorite link parties----be sure to check them out for some great inspiration!

Bec@littlelucylu said...: Okay, two things:
1) I have several pitches just like that ... and now, I'm going to have to do this!!!
2) Did you SERIOUSLY stamp on every single letter individually!?! (And how the heck did you do that without messing up!!?)

AND .... I LOVE IT!
(I know that was three things ...)
Hugs!

Karah @ thespacebetweenblog said...: This is so great! I saw you featured and thought I'd commented, but must have at Centsational Girl and not here. I can so relate to your "Jaime" project concept. I have been feeling a bit out of sorts lately, trying to get in my groove, floundering a bit with inspiration vs what I REALLY want in my home. I'm so glad you've found your crafty mojo and hope to follow suit. :)
Thanks so much for linking up to the party.
