January DIY Projects- A Month In Review

February 4, 2013 By Jacque 9 Comments

January was here and gone before we could even blink an eye!

We promised to start the year off with a bang and boy did we!

Our January diy projects were so fun!
Matt started by sharing our new kitchen backsplash.

Then I finally got around to doing something with the old school chairs I was given.
But this time with a twist for Fenway!

And Matt turned an IKEA tea light lantern into a cordless LED light WOW!

I was feeling pretty puny for a week but we jumped right back in the next week with our Winter storage solution.

I rose to a Dollar Tree challenge and created a great inexpensive valentine’s gift for Matt that combined his love for coffee and music

Another fun one was when I decided to take the Monogrammed Jewelry Box that I made for my mother and turned it into a wonderful keepsake

All in all it was pretty fun month for Matt and I.  I really think we pushed our creativity this month and it really paid off!

Just a reminder that today is the last day for the Consumer Crafts Back to Basics sale!  Don’t forget to check it out!!!

    You guys have been busy too! How do we all find the time to do all this? I guess that is why we are creative people, we just find it, and do it:) Loved them all.
