MAKING it reflect who you are✨💜🫶🏻Super fun, yes?! 


All just by a simple personal touch of showcasing you or kids unique style with prints and images under any acrylic glass desk protector (ours you can get cut to fit any size over on Amazon) and tada! - MAKING it truly yours.


Highlights of this project?

Dog pink print


Forever Loved print

Kids Size Craft Storage

Craft storage organization

The idea of creating something like this was due to the fact that our "craft supply drawer" was over flowing and desperately needed to be moved into a closet. 

It also happened to be when my oldest was 3 and the Pandemic hit. So naturally a change was needed : )

We've been using this kids size craft storage system every year since with just a few minor updates as my girls creativity and interest have changed over the years. Then up above I have all of my supplies up high like paint, spray paint, glue gun, ribbon and random supplies left over from projects as they are only meant for "mom," to touch. A video demo of me breaking everything down can be seen here.

Then what I used to create this system can be found below.


Shoe bench rack

Wicker bins or white plastic bins

Sweater drawer / supply drawer

Rotating crayon + marker container

Bead kit container (pink, purple)

DIY Art Display 

Canvas tote bin


If you create your own version, I'd love to see over in Instagram by tagging me @mama.jots


Happy MAKING! 

Warmly, Steph

Kids Activity Gear Bag

 

Swim class is what ours is going to be used at the moment though we foresee dance class picking up again this fall : ) Maybe sports for you?!⚽️

 I realized this summer that with my girls ages (5 and 8 years old) not only do they want more responsibility though I also no longer have too or need to carry around a large giant bag for both them. They can take care and carry their own towels, googles and snacks in a bag. Major motherhood upgrade!! 

It's funny how fast they grow : )

So what I used to MAKE these for my girls? 

Canvas tote bag pink 

Canvas tote bag purple 

Acrylic Paint

 Sponge paint brush

Card-stock (DIY rainbow arch stencil)

Scissor and or X-acto knife 

Gaffer tape or painters tape  


Happy MAKING - Warmly, Steph 💜

DIY Art Display for Kids Room





 Our art displays have certainly gotten larger over the years (because of course!) yet I love the simple look and over all idea of the design's I've made through the years though this time I used wooden glue and transformed a wooden plaque into our own whimsical floral creation for my youngest to hang and display her art.  Along with a more pop of color💗

Supplies and details of where everything is from? Listed out below.


Supplies

Wooden Frame Plaque 

Clothes Pins

Wood glue (this is what I used here)

Pink Paint (similar shade  here!)

Wooden flowers (for base frame)

Add-on Flowers to make it "3D"  here and here

Gold Paint (MY NEW FAV!) because you only need 1 coat.

Thin Paint Brushes


Art Displayed 

Paper plate sun:DIY @mama.jots

Girls illustrated Photo C/O Artist Lacce Swan

Happy MAKING!
