Thrift Lamp Re-Vamp with Martha Stewart Glass Paints

09/04/2012

Well good morning, and I hope everyone enjoyed the holiday weekend!  I love freebie days off work - I get an extra day to see my family, and I'm always able to squeeze in a little bit of bonus craft time. ;) Plaid Crafts recently sent me a box of Martha Stewart's new glass paint to try out and see ...

Could that happen to me?Yes, it could.  I'm also hosted by Blogger.  If ...

Butterfly Tile Mosaic

08/29/2012

Well, I made another tile mosaic.  I am not in the habit of showing off the same things over and over again around here, but I tried a few different things since my original tree mosaic, and they worked out really well (and are considerably more cost-effective) so I'm going to show this off today ...

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!
