DIY American Flag with Lights

New video! This one shows how to create an American flag with lights! 
This would make a perfect outdoor decoration for the 4th of July.

Tutorial: Father's Day Card - Fishing Themed + Free Patterns

This week's video is up and it shows how to create this fishing themed card for Father's Day!


You can create any kind of fish you want (like the rainbow trout on the right), but for the purpose of this video, I made a simple, solid colored one to give you the basic idea.

Here are the patterns:

I used elmer's glue in this video, but if you have a hot glue

As always, if you try this project, I'd love to see it! Tag me on instagram
