Encourage reading AND crafting by making custom Wooden Butterfly Bookmarks using Ikonart!


Wooden Butterfly Bookmarks

I love making bookmarks and think they are a fun way to encourage kids (and adults) to keep reading. There are so many ways to customize blank wood bookmarks, but one of my favorites is to wood burn a creative design on the front using my Ikonart custom stencil kit! These Wooden Butterfly Bookmarks are so simple and fun to make for crafters of every level. What's even better is that you can reuse the stencil over and over to make a whole collection of bookmarks. These are great for selling or gifting to both kids and adults - not to mention that bookmarks are a fantastic incentive to keep reading!!

This Apple Crumble Pie is filled with tart, juicy apples and topped with a delicious crumble topping!


Apple Crumble Pie

One of my husband's favorite desserts is apple pie. Unfortunately, I haven't been successful with making a pie that both looks AND tastes good - until now! Apple Crumble Pie is the perfect mix between apple pie and a crumble, and is pretty much fool-proof. It's such an easy dessert recipe that can be enjoyed any time of year: in the summer with a scoop of ice cream, or shared with the family on Thanksgiving! I'm so excited that my husband absolutely loved this dessert, and I hope you feel inspired to give this recipe a try.
