Heart-Shaped Yarn Basket

01/18/2012

I have been having so much fun playing with Valentine's Day ideas.  I don't know why - I didn't do nearly this much Christmas-themed crafting.  I'm not even romantic.  I guess there's just something sort of whimsical about Valentine's Day.  (Speaking of which, if you feel the same way, I invite you ...

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!
