Do you ever stand in the wood aisle at the hardware store and dream of what you could make? I did just that with a large piece of craft wood recently. This DIY Wall Organizer Board is simple to make and is so functional for your home office, mudroom, studio and more. This is our latest…
You know how much we love using shibori folding techniques and indigo dye, don’t you! Well if not, here is a little trip down memory lane. We have made pillow cases, napkins, dish towels, place mats and more. In the past we have used the natural indigo dye, but on today’s project we used Indigo…
