Use Ikonart to create a piece of Hipster Bunny Reverse Canvas Art that can be displayed for Easter, springtime, and beyond!


Hipster Bunny Reverse Canvas Art

After a few "false springs", I am now impatiently waiting for the weather to warm up for good! To help inspire the weather to cooperate, I decided to start some spring crafting. This Hipster Bunny Reverse Canvas Art was so fun to make using and Ikonart kit, and I think it's such an adorable piece of decor. Not only is it the perfect piece for spring, but it is especially fun for Easter and would be great for bunny enthusiasts to keep displayed all year long. I hope you feel inspired to make your own Hipster Bunny Reverse Canvas to display in your own home this spring!

Give a thrifted piece of decor new life with this clever Flocked Trinket Dish tutorial!


DIY Flocked Trinket Dish

While thrifting, I often bring a lot of things home that need a little extra love. I don't really have a plan for them, so I set them aside until inspiration strikes. This $1 metal leaf dish was one of those finds. The metal leaf dish was dingy, scratched, and just asking for a makeover. As soon as I got my hands on Plaid's new Velvet Crush, I knew that that was what this leaf tray needed to bring it back to life! This Flocked Trinket Dish was so easy to create, and the velvety finish is so smooth, and - most importantly - stays in place!

When it comes to spooky reads, Edgar Allen Poe's one of the best.

Display a hand-painted work of art with this clever DIY Coloring Book Canvas trick!


DIY Coloring Book Canvas

For me, painting is be a fun and relaxing hobby. However, I have a lot of friends who disagree because they say that they're not "artsy-fartsy". I was trying to think of how to help my artistically-challenged friends (and even kids) to feel confident about creating art, and the idea of a coloring book on canvas came to mind. This project was made using a simple canvas panel and a custom stencil (thanks to my Ikonart kit). I think it is such a fantastic way to create your own art, or you could transfer the design to multiple canvases that kids of ALL ages can paint at parties. I've been so excited to share this project with you, and hope you feel inspired to try it out for yourself.

Straight out of the Hocus Pocus spell book, this stenciled sign features the iconic spell used to turn Thackery Binx into our favorite black cat!

Stenciled Hocus Pocus Binx Black Cat Spell Sign

One of my favorite scenes in Hocus Pocus is when our favorite witch trio is casting the black cat spell on Thackery Binx. It's just so mesmerizing, and we're always chanting along when it comes to that part of the movie. Because of our love of Hocus Pocus, I thought it would be fun to put the words of that iconic spell onto a piece of decor to put on display for Halloween.

By using my Ikonart kit, I was able to easily create a stencil to paint the quote onto a sign. It was so simple to make, and I absolutely love how it turned out! As a bonus, I'm also sharing the FREE design so that you can get inspired to make one of these signs for yourself!!

Free Spectrespecs Cross Stitch Pattern

When I was younger, I made many attempts to complete a cross stitch project. Eventually, my floss would get tangled up or I would lose my space in the pattern and just give up. After working with Anchor Embroidery Floss Spools and loving it, I decided to give cross stitching another chance. I'm so glad I did!! Luna Lovegood (from Harry Potter) and her iconic Spectrespecs are my inspiration for this project, and I absolutely LOVE how it turned out. So much so, that I'm sharing the pattern here so you can make one for yourself!

Use a custom stencil to make a Harry Potter-inspired sign as a reminder to not "let the muggles get you down"!

Ikonart Stenciled Harry Potter Muggle Quote Sign

One of my favorite quotes from the Harry Potter series is "Don't let the Muggles get you down." Ron Weasley's encouraging words to Harry have always stood out to me as a quote to live by. No matter how hard you try, there will always be "muggles" around who won't be able to see the magic inside you. Keep your head up and surround yourself with good friends (like Ron and Hermione) who see the truly magical wizard that you really are!!

I wanted to put this quote on display so that I could see it every day. By using my Ikonart kit, I was able to easily create a stencil to paint the quote onto a sign. It was so simple to make, and I absolutely love how it turned out!

Did you know that cut files can be used with more than a Cricut machine? It's true! This "Sip Sip Hooray" sign was made using a stencil, but the design was originally a cut file. It was so easy to make this sign using the Ikonart kit, and I love how it turned out. It will look fantastic in a kitchen near a drink station, or would be a fun piece of party decor displayed with ice-cold drinks on a hot summer day!
