  If you’re a reader of this blog, you’ve probably noticed that sometimes we like to get our wine on!Sometimes with dinner, sometimes for girl’s nights, and sometimes even while crafting (okay, definitely not for crafts that involve power tools. Ya gotta draw the line somewhere!) Now, I’m no Kathy Lee Gifford but give me

If you’re like us, then you’ve seen some pretty cool string art all over Pinterest.
