It is no secret I love countdown calendars and this candy one is so cute. It was originally designed for Advent but I am thinking it could look cute for Valentine’s Day with Hershey’s Kisses or some heart shape candy or maybe even for a special Birthday? Pop on over to the blog Home Made Gifts Made Easy for the tutorial on how to make clothes pin candy countdown calendar. These predecorated clothes pins with awesome prints and patterns would look so cool for this project.

DIY Bar Goals: This Wine Bottle Cutter Kit Is About to Change My Crafting Life
I have a confession: this bottle cutter kit has been sitting in my Amazon cart for days. I keep coming back to it, imagining all the wine bottles I could be turning into classy glasses, candle holders, or even a whole DIY lantern lineup for my patio.
If you’re even a little bit crafty (or maybe just drink a lot of wine—no judgment here), this kit looks like a total game-changer. It’s got everything: a stable base, adjustable rollers, gloves, a glass paper smoother—basically all the stuff you’d forget you needed until halfway through your first project.
What I love is how this makes upcycling feel super doable. Instead of tossing those beautiful gin or whiskey bottles, I could be turning them into one-of-a-kind gifts or home decor pieces. And let’s be honest—who doesn’t want to say, “Oh this old thing? I made it.”
Now I just need to stop imagining and start cutting. Might be the perfect weekend project… if I click ‘Buy Now’ before Friday.
