You really CAN make this!

It seems like craft projects usually fall into one of two categories - either they are easy enough for us to realistically accomplish . . . and they look like it, or they're gorgeous and professional looking, but the instructions reveal that you need an art degree and access to heavy equipment to make them.  Not this one!  This gorgeous burlap hogs wreath is simple, unique, and although it is DIY, it looks like something you could easily find at one of those extremely stylish home boutiques like Haus Werk or The Full Moon. 

Also, you should really check out Melissa's amazing blog, Another Day in 'R' Life, which is absolutely full of genius ideas - I will definitely be posting more from this blog!

Oh, and just as an example of the geniusness, check out the wreath-hanger in the photo above; it's painted the same color as the door and blends in perfectly.  So smart!

Easy DIY Razorback canvas - great hostess gift!

 This is probably the easiest craft tutorial I've ever seen (it helps that you simply trace a Razorback car magnet to get the hog shape), but that doesn't change the fact that it is super cute.  I think that a personalized canvas like this would make a perfect hostess gift or Razorbacks-themed wedding shower gift. 

By the way, check out Katie Brockmeyer's adorable blog Building a House of Love for even more cute projects like this.
