Tutorial and Treasury Tuesday


Crafting is such a delightful hobby! This afternoon, I have compiled a small post filled with different tutorials I have found over the few weeks.

I have always wondered how to make a Daisy Chain; therefore, I did a little research and is it not appropriate to post this for May Day? 

Here is my rendition of a rose wreath:
All I did was cut a branch full of white roses, and twist them into a wreath. Looks more like a Greek, Roman style crown. :)

Here is another tutorial on how to make a daisy chain:

Mother's Day is around the corner, and I thought I would post a few inspirational tutorials for you to make the perfect gift. 

If you have time and a lot of patience, this is a beautiful little jewelry box for your special Mother. 


This is SO cute! It is a fabric, hand-embroidered house that I know your Mother would love!

Plantable Seeded Paper Flowers


This is a really neat craft for you and your younger siblings, and a perfect gift for your Mother who is fond of gardening. The flowers have seeds in them, so you can be instantly ready to plant. And this craft is eco-friendly as well!


I think this is such a clever, simple gift!:)


What a cute idea!


Bev always has some pretty necklace tutorials that would be a lovely gift for Mother's Day. 


This one is my favorite out of her necklace tutorials!:)


Why not make a bracelet that matches? 


I love this tea towel!!!!


If you have a few extra beads or ribbon scraps, this would be a great project!

Aprons are always lovely gifts!

This would make a lovely gift for a Mom!


This would make a cute little cosmetic pouch, for your Mom's small travel-sized makeup.


Speaking of cosmetics, this would be a lovely gift, no?

To-day's Etsy treasury include these pretty finds, perfect for Mother's Day!
Well, I hope all of you have a blessed Tuesday!



Love in Christ,

  4. Hello Grace!
    Thank you for the neat Mother's Day gift ideas! They are very clever and I know that every mother would enjoy a gift like those!
    We love making daisy chains! We do ours a little bit differently though. We take three flowers and start to braid them. Once a flower stem is low, we just add another flower into the braid and continue braiding until it's at the desired length! Then we intertwine the chain to make a circle!
    Have a lovely day!
    Blessings,
    Bethany Ann
    P.S. I wanted to let you know that you play the piano so beautifully! When I was on your site the other day, my Mom heard the background music you were playing and at first she couldn't believe it was you because it sounded so professional! :) You are very talented! :)

  5. Aww, thank you so much, ladies!

    Dear Miss Bethany~
    Awww! *giggles* That actually is not my playing in the background. I wish I did play the piano, though! Do you play?

    May the Lord bless your day!
    Love,
    Grace
