As craft bloggers we always try to figure out new projects to share with our wonderful viewers and followers each and every project. Sometimes it's a little easier than others…..sometimes we are a little "stumped" -- other times the ideas "flow like a river"….right now I'm in a little crafting funk so to say…..
I'm not sure where the inspiration for this project came from -- I can just share with you that it turned out better than I expected! For real. I thought about making a project -- hmmm…kind of like a "countdown to valentine's day" thing -- but scratched that. As I was scanning my craft supplies….I spotted these door hangers in my abundant supply of fun foam and thought "I really needed to do something with all of those hangers -- one day" -- then the light bulb turned on….what could I make out of them for a v-day project???? -- The project below evolved from there. My first thought was to make one for each of my kids to hang on their bedroom door and maybe "the cupid fairy" (kind of like the tooth fairy and St. Nick) would bring each of them a "goodie" on valentine's day…..slip it in their treat holder that hangs delightfully on their bedroom door and they would be super excited when they woke up on Valentine's Day…..pretty nifty idea, huh? --
Here is the idea and you can expand it to make it what you wish….LOL!!

ReplyDeleteHey Tracy!!
ReplyDeleteAdorable treat holder. I love the little details! I wish I had a craft room... I'd put one of these one the door knob and every time my kids came to swipe something from my craft table, they'd be distracted by the candy! :) Great idea... you might be able to market it to crafters everywhere!
Great job, as always!
Hugs, Cheryl
