Simple Thrift Store Canvas Makeover

I don't know about you, but I love visiting thrift stores to see what treasures I can find. Often what you find doesn't look like treasure, but with a little makeover magic you can have a decor piece that will be beautiful in your home.

Today I'm going to share how I took a not-too-pretty thrift store canvas and gave it a simple makeover with just a few crafting supplies. It became something that we love to have in our home. The best part is you can do this project too and it's an easy craft too!

Quick and Easy Handmade Card

When you want to brighten the day of a friend, what better way than to send them a cute little handmade card? Cards don't have to be elaborate and take you a long time to make. You can make an easy and cute card quickly and have a few on hand to send in the mail.

I don't know about you, but I love seeing an envelope from a friend or family member in my mailbox. It's nice to get a card with a little note from them letting me know that they are thinking of me.

I love to be the one who sends a card also. Thinking of when my far away family will get a little surprise in their mailbox or a friend that is having a rough day will smile when opening the envelope and seeing the bright colors of the card I sent makes me smile as well.

Homemade Stewed Tomatoes

Homemade stewed tomatoes add amazing flavor to the recipes you use them in, and the tomatoes are simple to make. After trying this recipe, you will want to grow your own tomatoes so you can make these often.

Using fresh and colorful ingredients, these delightful stewed tomatoes will be plentiful and useful to you. We use these tomatoes in so many recipes to add a wonderful flavor. I used them in my Slow Cooker Stuffed Pepper Soup, when I make Spanish Rice, as a delicious addition to spaghetti sauce, for a base of salsa, and sometimes as a little snack on their own. There are plenty of recipes that these tomatoes will make even more tasty.
