Hello lovelies!
Today was my day off from work. After the cooking and cleaning I am finally relaxing on the couch watching Fringe
, one of my favorite shows recently. Of course when I watch TV, I never fully watch it, I am usually on my computer as well. So I was going through Pinterest and I put together a cute little collection of Picture DIY's for you my pretty little readers!

My Little Proposal!
Google
I was filled with joy this past Wednesday while I was working my normal 9-5. Let me tell you why! I check my phone quite frequently while I'm at work because it is the only connection I have to my shop while I am away from my computers and I always like to keep an eye on things, check my stats, or have a pleasant surprise if I sold an item. I still get all giddy as if every sale were my first sale. Well I checked my email inbox and found that I had an Etsy conversation, someone had sent me a message on there. So I opened it up. Now at first I was dreading it was an issue with a past sale, that an item had to be replaced or never made it to it's final destination or new home. I haven't had an issue like this yet and I hope not to! But if you read the subject line below, you can see how I might think that! As I read this I became ecstatic!
Now you can see why I was so excited! One of the items that I handmade was used in a marriage proposal! I thought that it was so adorable! I sent a message back to Kate congratulating her and asking for a full story with details and pictures! Hopefully she will get back to me soon so we can hear more about her story! Here is the ring she referenced:

DIY: Crayon Wrapper Coaster! By Katie of Running with a Glue Gun!
Google
This post was written by: Katie of Running with a Glue Gun
Hi Everyone,
Today I have a super fun projects, for all those left over crayon wrappers. Now there are many projects out there that show you how to use old crayons for new projects but there not that many that show you how to use the crayon wrappers.
Well todays project we are going to use all those crayon wrappers, to make a cute little coaster. So grab some crayons and a nice cherry coke and enjoy making this fun craft!
Enjoy,
Katie
Step 1: Take the crayon wrapper off your crayon. The best way I found to remove the wrapper is to take your craft knife and run it along the back of your crayon. When you do this, your crayon wrapper will come off your crayon in one piece.
Step 2:
Once you have a pile of crayon wrappers, start gluing them to your cork coaster.
Step 3: Once your coaster is covered, take your craft knife and cut off the extra.
Then your done!

Misanthropy Creations Blog Team - June Items!
Google
Here is a sneak peak of the items the Misanthropy Creations Blog Team has to offer for the month of June! If you would like to join the Team and possibly have your items featured here next month click here!
Two of my favorite things in the world is jewelry making and painting.
So I thought, why not put them together. The paintings that you will
find in my shop, were all inspired by pieces of jewelry that I made for
the shop.
The paining above is an original acrylic painting on canvas and was inspired by my Splash Of Purple Necklace. The painting itself is 8 by 10 inches. The colors in this painting are a little lighter then what the picture is showing.
*This item is handmade and one of a kind, which means that I can not remake it. So once this item is gone it's gone.*

Concrete Fire Bowl, Bowl, Trinket Holder. Bird Feeder, Candy Dish. Succulent Holder
This concrete fire bowl can be used for a multitude of things. Use it as a fire bowl, a planter for succulents, or a small outdoor planter, a tealight holder, votive candle holder, candy dish, soap holder or trinket holder. It can be used indoors or outdoors. This bowl is decorated with small rocks that are set permanently on the rim.
To use as a fire bowl: Just add a can of Sterno, or other gel fuel. Gel fuel can be purchased at most home improvement/hardware stores. That is not included and I do not send that out.
These are made to order and so they will vary slightly in size and color, as no two are alike. I sand them to remove some of the rough patches, but they are not perfectly smooth, as I tend to like the more nature feeling concrete as opposed to the perfectly smooth, store bought concrete.
I do add a clear water resistant topcoat to help keep the life of the bowls and it does add a slight shine.
These do not come with the flowers or the concrete or glass vase fillers. If you are interested in those, please convo me. The vase concrete vase fillers are $2.00 each.

This necklace is great for the Paris lover in you. The chain is a deep
silver and measures 16 11/16 inches also this necklace is not
adjustable. The Paris map charm is 2 4/16 by 1 13/16 inches.
All jewelry is handmade and one of a kind.
Flower Centerpiece, Glass Vase Centerpiece, Shabby Chic Centerpiece. Wedding
This beautiful, but simple glass wedding centerpiece would look great for an indoor or outdoor event. I used artificial yellow flowers and added a gray ribbon, an off-white rope and a yellow flower. This is topped off with a silver floating candle.

String Jar DIY: By Katie King of RunningWithAGlueGun
Google
Hey Guys,
Today I have a fun DIY that involves old jars and a little string.
Enjoy,
Katie
Step 1: Take your jar and spread a good amount of Mod Podge on the area you want to cover. Then take your string and wrap it around your jar ( picture 1), make sure that your pressing your string/yarn into the Mod Podge as your wrapping. Once your done wrapping you should have something like picture 2.
Step 2: Now take a different color of yarn or string and repeat step 1 ( picture 1). Continue this process until your whole jar is covered ( picture 2 ).
Step 3: Once your jar is dry take your hot glue gun and glue your crochet bow to your jar.
Then your done!
