Crafts & DIY
8 pieces
Crafts for the seasons everyone shares — equinox, harvest, the long winter. One evening's worth of making.
A Paper Pansy Garland for the Equinox
Mark the spring equinox with a small craft that takes an evening and stays up for a month.
Pressed Flower Cards for Mother's Day
The card you make beats the card you buy. Pick the flowers in early May; the cards are ready by the second weekend.
A Citronella Candle in a Glass Jar
The bought ones are over-perfumed and over-priced. The real version smells like lemon, not chemistry.
A Shell Bowl from a Beach Walk
The shells you collect in July look like clutter by August. Turn them into one object you'll keep for years.
An Acorn Garland for Autumn Harvest
Mark the autumn harvest with a craft that costs nothing and asks for one walk in a park.
A Pumpkin as a Flower Vase
Use the small pumpkins from the market not for carving but for one striking arrangement on the table.
A Simple Evergreen Wreath
Skip the bow, the ribbon, the fake berries. A real wreath is just greens, twine, and a circle.
Clove and Orange Pomanders
The smell will fill the kitchen for two weeks. The work is twenty minutes per orange.
