Easy Loom-Knit Striped Cowl

I think it's pretty obvious if you read here often that I am just NOT a yarnie.  I don't crochet or knit - well, not in a traditional sense.  I do enjoy arm-knitting, and I also enjoy another form of easy knitting: loom knitting.  Yes, on the kids' looms.  It's about all I can … [Read more...]

Hello, and welcome! I'm Adrianne, an artist, author, designer, and blogger in mid Michigan. I work from home, chase my two kids, and this once-city-girl is learning how to care for chickens and adjusting to life out in the country. I have a compulsion for daily creativity... sometimes it's jewelry-making, paper crafting, metal stamping, mixing and baking, or giving new life to recycled items. But with 2 young kids, time is short! My goal here at Happy Hour Projects is to share projects and tips that you can do in an hour or less. The ideas you find here are designed to add a little creativity in your day, no matter how much (or how little) time you have!
