It is time for another book inspired craft, this will be the second to last book in the series this year, there will be one more tomorrow. Today is a book that was a favorite of mine when I was a kid- The Witch of Blackbird Pond by Elizabeth George Speare.

I feel like I have kind of gotten off to a late start with Christmas projects this year, normally I feel like by this time of year my Christmas tree is up and I am well into Christmas crafting. This year I am working on some Christmas projects but this is only the second one I am posting and we are already halfway through November.

Over the last couple of weeks I have been working on some spring and Easter themed crafts and one of the projects I had planned was an Easter project that used napkins to make a decoupage project. While I was pulling out supplies for that project I remembered I had some wood trays that I thought would be perfect for another decoupage project, so I went ahead and made that too.

I always have so many plans for December crafts, but then life gets so busy this time of year that I never seem to get all of it done. This has been a problem my whole life. I used to make a lot more handmade gifts than I do now, and never seemed to get all of them done before Christmas. I remember as a teenager deciding I was going to make a patchwork quilt for my mom. I stayed up late working on it but when Christmas morning came all I had to show her was a pile of strips of squares that I had sewn together. And that is definitely not the only time that has happened to me.

Do you ever have projects that you start and then set aside and it takes months before you actually get around to finishing the project? Then when you finally get around to finishing the end project is completely different than the idea you actually started with? This project is one of those for me, but now that I have actually finished it I really like the way it turned out.

Easy Mod Podge Framed Art

Today I am participating in another round of Craft Lightning, this time with the theme of "Wood". We were challenged to make a wood project that takes 15 minutes or less, excluding drying time. I thought this one would be a piece of cake but I had a hard time figuring out a project. I had another project in mind and it was a total fail. I had to scratch that idea and come up with a plan B.
