Happy Birthday Fourth East Craft Co.!!

Oh my gosh! I can not believe it has been 2 years since I took a leap of faith and decided to start up craft night again! Happy birthday Fourth East Craft Co! Craft nights have since evolved into craft day because that seems to work better for all of us! (Especially the chillins- they are not little devils because it’s not past their bedtime)

A little history about me and “craft night”:
My first “craft night” was actually held August 22, 2008. Crazy right?! At this time I only had 1 baby. I was a new stay at home Mom and had the desire to do something during nap times. I had the idea to make some cute decorations and offer others help making some for themselves. I took flyers around the neighborhood and emailed invites to everyone I knew. The first “craft night” was a success and I couldn’t wait for the next one! I found a new passion to do while my new baby boy napped.

I continued to host “craft night” pretty much monthly, or as often as I could, until June 2010. My last “craft night” was June 11, 2010. I still loved “craft night” but I had a huge challenge….I no longer had my work shop (aka garage). I didn’t have a work shop until November 2017, which is when the desire and drive for “craft night” began burning.

If you have time to kill, you can check out some of the old things I did and read the story as to why I no longer had a work shop. It’s all there. I was kinda fun to walk down memory lane. Check it out at:

#1. Birthday cake stand $25

It wouldn’t be a birthday party without birthday cake! …and you can’t have cake without a stand, right?! I LOVE how it turned out! It’s so much better than I imagined. The cake stand is made of wood and finished with the chippy paint style. Grab one for yourself and add this beautiful piece of decor to your collection.

#2. Baby it’s cold outside bucket $10

• 

Baby it IS cold outside! When it’s cold out, there’s nothing I like more than a nice cup of hot cocoa! Even sometimes in the warmer months, if I’m cold, I dream about a cup of hot cocoa.
Or if it’s snowy outside, we often times get ice. This bucket is an attractive way to store your salt for your walkway, stairs, and sidewalks. This cute little bucket measures 7″ in diameter and 4.5″ tall. The uses for this bucket are endless! This is for just the bucket ONLY. The props are just for the photo.
You apply the vinyl sticker and you’re done!
Time: approx 5 min

#4. Snow flake shelf sitter or door hang $40

This totally awesome 3-D snowflake is like nothing you’ve ever seen! It will definitely be your favorite winter decoration by far. It adds a unique rustic flair to your home and looks nice on a shelf, table, mantle, or even hung on the wall or door (it is pretty big and heavy, it will bang against the door when it opens and closes–so I would maybe display it on a less used door if that is the route you want to go) This rustic looking snowflake measures approx. 15×15″ and is 6″ thick.
You paint, sand, and stain the 3 different layers of the snowflake, then assemble with assistance.
Time: approx 2+ hours
Skill level: intermediate to advanced (good patience recommended)

String heart details: (also available as a pallet sign)

String art is so fun! There is no way to ruin it….I don’t think. I had so much fun making this sign. I actually had to do it twice because the beginning of my string didn’t hold. Anyway, I love how it turned out and I really it was so fun to make. You can display it indoors or outside, the string will hold up in the weather.
