5 creative craft ideas with free printables

By 18 Comments

Hi there everyone!

Today, I am sharing 5 creative craft ideas with free printables .

A few weeks my friend Ann from On Sutton place shared a summer porch rules Printable that I fell in love with.

Today, I thought I would share it on my Summer porch.

I of course couldn’t just print it in and frame it like most normal people would do.

I like to craft with my printables and have 

done a few in the past.

5 ways to decorate and craft with printables

Welcome to our simple summer porch.

Remember my burlap rag wreath?

My wreaths always get moved from place to place.

I don’t have much to show you in terms of our Summer porch this year.

I know, I’m lame.  But I have not put out a lot of flowers and I only  perked it up with a few pillows.

Nothing special, just colorful.

I mentioned the other day I love yellow…well my other favorite color is blue as you can see.

Even painted our porch ceiling Haint Blue.

You know there is a history on that and Southern porches right?

Roosters are in da house...

they are everywhere around here. It’s actually ridiculous how many roosters I have.  The last I counted I was well over the 30 mark total roo’s.

So back to the project.

You can go print the Summer rules printable when your done here.

As you can see I slightly burned the edges.

I used an Elmers chalkboard foam board for my back drop.

And then gently place it on the foam chalkboard, smoothing out with your finger and slightly brushing more mod podge on the edges.

    Very cute, Debbie! I love how you did the edges for a different look rather than just framing a straight edged print out. It gives it some interest besides the colors and words.

    Hi Sunshine!
    I’ve missed visiting and seeing what’s going on. Finally have a computer working and the internet connection is too. 🙂 More than frustrating….

    I love this creation! Looks so good on your porch. Wish I were there to share a glass of wine…or a cup of coffee in the morning.

      So nice to see you Pat. So sorry you have been having so many computer issues. Those really stink and are so frustrating.
