We’re heading home this weekend after a weeklong stay on Harbor Island, and I’m definitely not eager to jump back into the daily grind just yet. Still, there’s a whole weekend ahead—perfect for trying new projects and savoring a bit more relaxed time.
Below are six favorite DIYs from this week that are easy, fun, and great for a weekend of crafting:
1. No-drill acrylic picture frames — a sleek, modern option for displaying photos without complicated hardware. This project is quick and yields a clean, professional look.
2. DIY marshmallow toasting sticks — perfect for backyard gatherings or a cozy evening by the fire. These are a simple, safe way to elevate s’mores night.
3. Woven wall pockets — a stylish and functional handmade organizer. I made these for Etsy Studio; they’re a great way to add texture and storage to a small wall space.
4. Nine ways to customize hoop earrings — a versatile roundup showing how to update basic hoops with charms, thread, beads, and other small additions to match any style.
5. Recycled calendar cake topper message — a charming, eco-friendly cake topper made from repurposed calendar pages. It’s a clever way to personalize celebrations without buying new materials.
6. Oak leaf geranium planters — a pretty gardening DIY that showcases oak leaf geraniums in creative containers. These make lovely porch or patio accents and work well as gifts.
Any of these projects are small enough to finish in a few hours and rewarding to complete. Pick one that fits your mood—something quick and decorative or a useful piece you’ll use all season.
Have a happy, creative weekend!
