Guys, it’s almost the weekend. Yes! If you’re thinking about making the most of your weekend, but you’re not sure what to do first, here’s a couple of suggestions that are sure to make your weekend A++.
Why not learn to crochet? You only need minimal supplies to get started, and with our easy step-by-step tutorials taught by Holly, you’ll be making scarves and blankets in no time!
Been meaning to finish a photo album or scrapbooking project? We love having books and books of printed photos in our homes, and it doesn’t necessarily have to take a lot of time to make them. Check out this post about finishing an album, or you can see our Scrapbook Sunday series for a little inspiration to get you going this weekend. Go forth and print, my friends!
If it’s chilly where you are, then dedicate your weekend to making a great soup! It’s the best for a laid-back night spent watching movies under a blanket. Not sure what to make? Why not try roasted red pepper + tomato soup or homemade miso. You can see all of our (20+) soup recipes by clicking here.
Getting your space organized can be the best feeling in the world. Why not take some time this weekend to give a neglected corner of your home some TLC? You could try organizing your kitchen cabinets.
I don’t know about you, but I can’t think of a better way to spend a Saturday afternoon than learning to weave. You can follow along with our four part weaving series taught by Rachel to learn the basics, and then get creative to make some beautiful and unique weavings for your space.
The perfect weekend activity award goes to: baking cookies! Just the act of turning on my oven is enough to make me happy sometimes. 🙂 Make a batch and then invite some friends over for a movie night. Not sure what to bake? Why not try pie crust cookies or sugar cookies. You can see all of our cookie recipes by clicking here.
Looking to make a healthy choice this week (after eating all those cookies)? Did you know you can easily prep a whole week of delicious salads to take to the office or school? Oh yes, Laura shares a few tips and recipes for making your own salads in jars.
Get creative with color and a few simple crafting supplies, and make some jewelry this weekend. You could make an art teacher necklace for yourself or a personalized phrase bracelet for a friend. Check out all of our jewelry making tutorials by clicking here.
Want to make great use of your time? Why not spend a weekend afternoon making a few personalized cards for friends and loved ones. Here’s some inspiration to get you started. 🙂
Spend a couple hours organizing your bathroom vanity—make your morning routine feel that much more clean and fresh with an organized space.

This is just what I needed for this weekend coming up! I don’t think I have spent a full day doing things that I want to do- we get so caught up! Will be spending Saturday scrapbooking and trying those pie crust cookies!
This weekend I bought 2 photo albums and organized photos from 2012 and 2013 trips. I haven’t gotten into scrapbooking yet, but this first baby step feels great! I am regularly looking to this blog for inspiration in ways to display photos. Thanks!
Weaving is next on my list of something new to learn. Can’t wait!
These are such fun and creative ideas. Will be working on the cut out crutons for soup ASAP!
i cannot wait to try all these love your blog so much its super inspiraring

One of the things I want to learn how to do is sew. I feel like it’s a basic skill a woman should know how to do and I’m totally clueless. My mom can crochet, I may have to add that to the list!
Such good ideas! Lovely!

Hey! I’ve been anxiously awaiting the crocheting tutorial for the pouf. Is that still in the works or did it get nixed?

Ooh I really want to start learning crochet too. My grandma is a pro! I’m also very much in love with your polka dot washing machine/tumble dryer. It’s actually my blog background to a tee!

OMG, so cool ideas! I am usually writing blog posts on week-end and film for my channel=))) But today I decided to draw some pics and to clean my home=)) Good too=))
I love those washing machines! And I have been considering scrap booking lately, except I don’t take much photos and Mr. K simply flat out hates having His photo taken i.e. not one photo is in existence lol
