Stenciled Tea Towels {Guest Post}

August 6, 2014 By Shannah Coe 2 Comments

There are few projects on my list that I been there forever. For some reason, they just never make it to the “to do” stage. Meredith tackles one of them by sharing all the details of how to make stenciled tea towels.

Stenciled Trick or Treat Bag

October 15, 2013 By Shannah Coe 8 Comments

My daughter is totally obsessed with the mustache trend.  Despite throwing a baby shower that featured mustaches, I don’t really get the whole excitement behind the trend.  Yeah, it is funny but mustaches on everything just seems odd.  Oh well, clearly my daughter {and most of the rest of the world} thinks it is cool so what do I know?  When we were working on her trick or treat bag for this year, she spied one of my Martha Steward adhesive stencils in the shape of a mustache.  The rest was history and her stenciled trick or treat bag was born.Stenciled Trick or Treat Bags with Label…

Back in February, I shared with you some of the items I had ordered and received from Pick Your Plum. They had little notebooks that weren’t pictured in that post I had picked them up from the daily flash site too.

Handmade Charlotte Stencils – A Stenciled Step Stool

March 22, 2013 By Shannah 21 Comments

I have this boring old white step stool that lives in our powder room.  The kids use it to stand on when they wash their hands in the sink.  I wanted to give it a little upgrade and thought stenciling it would be a perfect way to do that.  I received a set of Handmade Charlotte stencils and I decided to try them out on this project.
