Lucky Clover Runner!

We love our little upcycled heart punch clovers!
Each year we try to do something different with them. 
This year we made a lucky clover runner patch!

We painted a thin piece of styrofoam to use as a base and started to fill it up with clovers.

And paired them up with golden Monopoly pieces that we've been saving for the perfect craft! A little bling never hurt nobody! 

So fresh and so green, green!

Presidential Whiskey Chocolate Cherries!

Happy President's Day!
We cannot tell a lie, we're celebrating with booze soaked cherries...covered in chocolate!

About a week ago, we drained a jar of maraschino cherries and filled it with whiskey. 
Last night we put the cherries on a baking sheet and died them in the fridge.
This helps the chocolate coat the cherries.

We dipped our boozy cherries in melted semi-sweet chocolate and popped them back in the fridge to cool.
So much waiting...but so worth it!!!

Hail to the Chief! 

It's lovely up in here!

Put a little love in your heart.

Love is in the air here in Astoria! 

Vintage Upcycled Love Box!

We were snowed in a couple of weeks ago and we decided to start purging!  We cleaned out most of our closets and tackled the dreaded craft corner...it's literally a corner of our apartment overtaken by craft supplies.  After hours of organizing we decided to get crafty...
We used craft scraps and our old iPhone box to make a little vintage shoe box diorama to help spread the love!

The letters are stamps from the dollar section at Target!

The love box!

All you need is love!

Red Hot Valentine!

Red hots are so hard to find around New York!
But when we do find them, we use them...somehow.

Alice wishes she had these in her wonderland!
