Easter is on it’s way and I’m always on the lookout for some fun packaging options. Adding a fun carrot treat box also means you can fill it with standard sweets and not need to buy fancy Easter themed ones. All you need for this project is some cardstock, glue and a Cricut. 3D Carrot…

Christmas Gift Box – Cricut Maker & Acetate
I love good gift packaging. While the gift is obviously the main thing, good packaging adds so much to the excitement of opening the gift. Being able to make your own custom gift packaging takes it up even another notch. For a recent festive gift idea I made this gorgeous little acetate box with festive…
Engraved necklace with the Cricut Maker
While looking at necklaces in the shops the other day, I couldn’t help but notice a plain silver pendant.

Flower Lollipop…
Princess Party // DIY
Last week our precious princess turned FIVE! For about 10 months she was set on a kitty party, but when we started planning she switched to “princess and prince”, so that’s what she got. It was lots of fun to put together. Naturally we DIY’d most of it, so read on to find all the…
2 birthday cake topper // DIY
