Pinterest Crafts

While I am itching to get into my classroom (we aren't able to get into the building until tomorrow), I decided to share some of my summer pinterest influenced crafts. While some crafts, I have definitely failed at...these are the ones that were successful!

The first is my most favorite thing in my kitchen...my decorated dishwasher.   All it took was some plastic backsplash sheeting, and construction glue-- VOILA!

Next, we have the wine cork coasters. They are more for looks because the corks aren't entirely even so they wobble a bit! 

One thing to learn about me is that I am a wine cork clepto. If I see that someone is going to throw them away, I snatch them.  If I bring a bottle of wine somewhere, I always take my cork home.  Some call it tacky, I call it crafty! Here is another cork project I did this past winter.  I got the S from Michaels for about $3. It is hanging above the doorway in my dining room. Do you have any wine cork crafts to share?!?!


 

Finally, we have the mason jar soap pump.  I had to get my husband involved to help me drill a hole in the top to put in the recycled pump.  But it gives my bathroom that shabby chic look I enjoy.  



What are your favorite easy-to-do pinterest crafts?!
