Top 10 Crafts to Make This Week {1-12}

It’s that time again ~ I’m featuring my top ten crafts to make this week from last Tuesday’s linky party. I hope you find something fabulous that you’d like to make this week as well. I had to narrow it down from over 491 posts. Phew!

1.  Schoolhouse Electric Bed ~ A Craigslist find that was once a rusted and paint chipped metal bed frame is now a stylish bed fit for a prince!  The original Schoolhouse Electric bed retails for $1,200. {Gasp}     

2.  Peanut Butter Chocolate Crepe Cake ~ I think I gained weight just looking at this picture!  It’s a chocolate lover’s delight with eighteen stacked chocolate crepes topped with a peanut butter sauce.

3.  Vintage Inspired Covered Matchbooks {free printable} ~ Aren’t these vintage inspired matchbooks absolutely darling?  A free printable is provided to wrap an ordinary box of matches to give as a sweet valentines gift for a friend, child or co-worker.  It’s also a fun way to let your spouse know that they “light your fire”!  

4.  DIY Anthropologie Inspired Cowl {free crochet pattern} ~ Here’s the perfect winter accessory to compliment an outfit or simply keep you warm.  It’s a tri-color crochet pattern using wool yarn.  

5.  DIY Storage Farm Bench ~ When it comes to space saving storage, this bench is perfection! Not only does it provide storage but it doubles as a place to sit and relax! The best part is that after a trip to your local home improvement store and with the help of this tutorial, you’ll be able to build one yourself!

6.  Painted Lighted Canvas {diy} ~ This fun and inexpensive lighted canvas is perfect for Valentine’s Day, parties or really any holiday. It also makes a real statement in your home decor!

7.  Printable Thank You Cards {4 designs} ~ It’s never too late to send out thank you cards for your holiday gifts!  There are four designs to choose from.  All you need to do is download and print on kraft paper.

8.  Top Cleaning Tips of 2013 ~ Jenn shares her top 10 cleaning tips to cleaning every room in your house.  These tips will help you get ahead of your Spring cleaning so you can have more play time!  {wink}

9.  B is for Baby Shower ~ I love the idea of having a book shower instead of a traditional baby shower, especially if it’s not the mommy’s first baby.  It is a great way to build up a child’s library and keeps gift buying simple for the guests.  There are even free printables available!  {score!}

10.  DIY Ribbon Jewelry ~ Three fabulous tutorials to make chic jewelry using ribbon, chain, pearls and a bow! Easy enough to make that your mini me might even want to join in on the jewelry making fun! 

Wondering what was the most popular {or most clicked on} idea from the linky party? Well… it was A Fast Way to Heal Chapped Hands.
