Well, it was a busy weekend around here, so I didn't get a whole lot done, creative-wise.  I did, however, enjoy quite a nice weekend with my family, which is even better. :) About the only creative endeavor I did undertake was my first giant cookie.  Yes, you read that right: giant ...

Magnetic Recipe Holder

02/21/2012

So I have been searching for a cool idea for a recipe holder, and there is no shortage of cute and innovative ideas out there.  The issue I take, though, is that supplies to make such cute and innovative things are all a little on the pricey side!  By the time I shell out $15 for supplies, I could ...

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!
