You can cut out the shamrock with a scroll saw then drill some small holes in the corners to fish a ribbon or wire through. I had to figure out the difference between…

I didn’t do much crafting through the holidays but I am back in motion! Here are a few things I have been doing to get me in the Valentine’s mood! Sorry if some of them are blurry. Since our computer died it has been a nightmare loading other pictures onto this computer so some of these pictures were taken with my phone 😉 I did these for my sister and sister in law for their Birthday’s I am making something new for every month to switch out where the heart goes. Right now I am working on a shamrock for March. This was a 2 hour project. Just traced out…
