Origami with The Husband: Santa Claus

Origami Santa Claus Tutorial on Katie Crafts https://www.katiecrafts.com

?On the ninth day of Christmas, Katie Crafts gave to me…?

A cute origami Santa post from Husband! Check it out below!

Hey everyone, Husband here! Christmas is right around the corner and this time of year Katie and I really like making all sorts of stuff. We cook a ton, decorate a bunch and even dress up the cats. Last year, Mabel was a christmas tree and she LOVED it. With all the creativity flying around, I thought it quite prudent that I make a holiday themed origami for you to try your hand at (read: Katie bullied me).

This little guy is a little more complicated than some of the previous tutorials we’ve done, but I believe in you. Let’s do this! Continue reading Origami with The Husband: Santa Claus

Last Minute Halloween Costume Idea DIY: Animal Headbands

Tomorrow is finally Halloween! While Husband and I will be Blair Waldorf and Chuck Bass later on in the evening at the annual Halloween party we go to, we need something fun for when the kids come trick-or-treating earlier in the evening. I have a cute vampire bat face dress I got on Etsy a few years ago that I’ll pair with a little witch’s hat I have and some tights. Our storage unit has a cowboy hat and pirate hat that Husband could have worn, but we haven’t had the chance to get over there yet, so he has nothing fun at the ready. But don’t worry, I’ve fixed that issue in 5 minutes! Continue reading Last Minute Halloween Costume Idea DIY

DIY Mini Sketch Book

DIY Mini Sketch Book Tutorial by Katie Crafts; https://www.katiecrafts.com

Project: DIY Mini Sketch Book (or Notebook!)

A few weeks back, I found myself in one of my greatest inspiration stores. Nope, not the fabric store, or the craft store, or even the art store- Home Depot! Seriously, I love it there. We were visiting my Dad for the weekend and painting my childhood bedroom a sunny shade of pale golden yellow. While browsing the paint aisles, I decided to grab a few different paint chip swatches, knowing when I had the time I would be able to find a fun little project to use them for. Well, now is the time! Continue reading DIY Mini Sketch Book
