DIY Rainbow Birthday Party Ceiling. I had to post this because it is from a Rainbow Unicorn Party. How perfect! Anyway, cheap plastic table cloths were used instead of streamers, then gathered in the middle with balloons. For tons more photos of this rainbow unicorn themed party go to Cafe Mom here.
DIY Fruit Balloon Garland. Just fun, festive, colorful and silly in a good way. Tutorial from Oh Happy Day here.
What to Buy at Dollar Tree or Dollar Store for Weddings or Parties. The post then goes on to give a few examples of what these simple items can be turned into. How-to and list of items at Dollar Store Crafts here.
DIY Flower Balloons. For parties, spring, etc… Tutorial from All Things Simple here.
DIY Easy Tissue Paper Flower Ball. You actually should read the tutorial for this one because the edges in step #1 are actually cut in step #4 (in the DIY not kit version). I normally don’t post paper flowers, but this big pom pom like ball is really cheap and easy to make. Tutorial at giftpack here. *Photo orignally from Koyal Wholesale, where these flowers come in kits 2/$10 here.

DIY Bottle Brushes in Every Color. The original photo The Adventures of Bluegirlxo here. Tutorial for bleaching and dyeing brushes at Makin’ Projiks here.
DIY Sugary Edible or Decorative Snowmen. I usually don’t post much food, but these are really clever and easy (although I’d use the egg whites that have already been processed and NOT raw ones). The scarves and hats are made with fruit roll ups. Recipe and how-to at Curbly here.
DIY Haunted House Silhouettes Using Moving Boxes. From reddit here. In the comments section someone asked how they made the translucent parts. In another comment the person who made the cutouts answered:
I used contact paper, tissue paper and modge podge for the eyes. I used cardboard, black paint, and duct tape for the rest! You can’t see them from the inside of the house because there are curtains behind them.
DIY Free Edward Scissorhands Paper Doll Printable. From the Tim Burton Blog Party. The doll is quite tall and more detailed in the PDF. Download it from Paper Sparrow here.
The purpose of my blog has become to catalog unique crafts that I truly love and would do myself. I love the look of handmade crafts - handmade in a good way. My crafts tend to be doable and inexpensive - because I have either done them myself or intend on doing them. "Doable" doesn't mean "simple" crafts, but rather crafts that have tutorials that are clear and easy to understand. *I will never copy an entire tutorial from any blogger because that takes away page views from their site and 99.99% of the time it violates their copyright policy. I also will not reblog a post if the entire tutorial is published without the permission of the original blogger. I will cite, if known, sources for my posts because I believe in giving credit to the photographer/designer/blogger. Also, to act like something is your own idea, when it isn't, is just wrong.
