🐰 Last minute #easterbrunch place cards! Make a flag with washi tape and a toothpick and write your guests name on the tape. Secure it to the egg by wrapping a strip of tape all the way around the egg. Need a way for it to stand in its place? Just perch it on the tape roll! Couldn’t be easier! 🪺🐰 #lastminuteeasterdecor

My first winter as lifestyle editor at @parents me

My first winter as lifestyle editor at @parents meant I had to produce an Easter story (we usually took the pics in December). The Easter crafting has always felt a little blurry to me—every year I did it, but I was always asking my coworkers “wait, what is the craft thought here?”

So I decided to assign this first one out and @susanbanderson came to my rescue with these BABY SOCK lamb egg cozies. I didn’t even know eggs needed cozies! But I still love them to pieces! #eastereggs #easteregg #eastercrafts

✨F IS FOR FLOWERS✨

I was torn between FACES and FLOWERS 🌸 so I decided to do a mash-up! As the center, I used one of the most overlooked, perfect upcycled materials: bright and beautiful @playdoh lids!

Just in time for all of the spring holidays (oh hi #eastercrafts!), these blooms are so easy and so satisfying to make. And the fact that they stand on their own, they can live as a table centerpiece, on a mantle, or on a bookshelf!

(I have to give a shoutout to @artcampla—I saw one of their crafts on Pinterest and it sparked the inspo for this craft. If you like crafts and don’t follow them, go do so now!)

IMO, mid-winter is the time to throw random parties! #ad There are no big holidays on the immediate horizon and looking outside the window, all we see is brown and gray. Since we had a mid-winter break from school last week, my daughter Sommer and her friends spent an afternoon making bracelets! This party is so easy to plan and prep (thanks to the one-stop shop at @orientaltrading ), the kids love it, and no holiday or birthday is required! Naturally we had to top the afternoon off with cupcakes...and nerds, packaged inside gemstone party favors.

Sometimes the best way to express your mood is to draw it. I really loved having this up for the last month…it was a conversation piece, it made us slow down and think about our feelings, and yellow 🟡🟨💛 is my fave color!
If you make one, share with #PKprompts ! 🤣😘😊🤪😳

✨D IS FOR DIORAMA✨ When I started this mini #diorama craft I pulled out plastic animals and twine and little pebbles. I’m thrilled with a mini landscape any day, really, but I guess my more sentimental chords got the best of me. These are so easy to make and fun to plan! You can even mix in some little props where it works…moss under foot or maybe a moon hanging above. Find some box lids, canned fish containers (yes I do save them occasionally), cheese box lids, or jar caps to use as your containers. I’m ready to fill a wall with these little gems!

It’s 🫶🏼 Valentines Day Eve 🫶🏼 and you may be scrambling to make that card that says it all for your kids, your girlfriend, your man, or maybe your dry cleaner. Here are some projects that all use just paper and sometimes paint! Search Valentines on ProjectKid or DM me for details! I promise I’ll respond (as long as it’s before my bedtime)! ❤️❤️❤️

C IS FOR CARDBOARD (AND COLLECTIONS)
This project attempts to solve the over-abundance of two plentiful things in our household: cardboard and stuff my kids collect. There is SO much of both, and sometimes I feel like I’m swimming in it.

These little cardboard swings are a cute, and adaptable way to display objects that your kids can’t live without. For extra stability, add glue dots on the back edge so the swings stay flush with the wall. #PKprompts #cardboardcraftsforkids #cardboardcrafts #diykids

✨B IS FOR BOOKS✨
I’m a fan of making books…publishing them with fabulous editors, writing them, coming up with big ideas…and simply crafting ‘em. For week number two of #pkprompts, I turned cereal and cookie boxes into mini books, with pages made from @3m #postitnotes. The steps are so simple and require no nitpicky measuring.

It’s only week 2, so I’m still sudsing out the benefits of this weekly exercise. So far, I have fun on the list…

✨A is for ABSTRACT✨ #PKprompts

I’m glad I started with this one because you only need paint, paper, and a printed photograph. Read these whys and hows before you get started…

1. Print the photo in black and white so you are not distracted by color.
2. Rotate the photo so you stop seeing the picture for what it really is. It’s hard, I know.
3. Don’t use more than 5 paint colors. Assign the colors to the tones in your photo, ranging from white to the darkest tone and mimic that in your painting.
4. Don’t overthink the color palette. Find a frock in your kids’ closet that you like and go with those. Or maybe steal your palette from the book cover next to your bed.
5. Finish it in one sitting.
6. Tape it into a frame after to make it so it feels like real art (because it is)! That’s what I did.
7. Repeat. Flip the photo a different way and do it again. And again. And again. (or not)

If you make one and are willing to share, please tag #PKprompts so I can see it!

There is not a single person (notice I didn’t say creative person because we are ALL creative) that doesn’t suffer from a bump in the road, a block, a total desire to crawl under the covers.

Instead of seeking out inspiration from the myriad of sources available to me, I decided to start from scratch and offer up a challenge to myself...and to you, if you so choose to join in.

Starting with the letter A, I’m going to post a new craft each week-ish. My plan is that I’m going to choose my word in advance but the making will all happen for the first time here. Yes, the footage will be edited to fit this little 90 second video, but largely the craft will be made and problem-solved in real (and reel) time.

Feel free to follow along and share your pics using the hashtag #PKprompts. I want these to be as low-pressure as possible, so you likely have most of the supplies in your own craft stash.

Let’s go!

Nothing like coming up with a #diymenorah idea half way through #hanukkah!

All you need: dead marker caps, old wooden toy blocks, straws, eraser caps, and glue!

For those like me that hate to throw anything out (even dead markers when they are as pretty as these @kidmademodern ones), this is the craft for you!

It’s December 1st so I’m hoping you have your advent calendar displayed all pretty somewhere! If not, it’s okay…I never get anything together on time these days!
🎄
I love a good countdown but it can def be a lot of work to prepare. This one that I made for @countrylivingmag a few years back is super easy, but it takes some prep—getting the pegboard, painting it, making the little ornament notes, etc.
🎄
My advice? Just package up 25 pieces of their leftover Halloween candy, number them, and string on a piece of ribbon. Even if it’s just a crumbly pack is Smarties, it’s still fun to open a treat everyday! #adventcalendar #diyadventcalendar #christmascrafts

Not much gets me talking on the ‘gram, but this is IMPORTANT! 💙 On this #cybermonday, help me raise some moolah for @raphaelwarnock so we can retain some dignity and keep a completely unqualified man out of the Senate.

Watch the reel, share it, and help me raise money to keep Warnock in the Senate! I want bragging rights that we raised $1000 for @raphaelwarnock-that’s only 59 shirts! We can do this!💙💙💙
