Clover Ephemera Cards

Historical card designs that include clovers for St. Patrick’s Day. #freeprintable #ephemera

These historical cards all contain clovers for St. Patrick’s Day. The text has been removed from them making them more generic and versatile for crafting. They are great for collages, mixed media, junk journals, glue books, and more.

St. Patrick used a clover to explain the Holy Trinity of Christianity, which is God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Shamrocks have three petals whereas four-leaf clovers have four. Finding a four-leaf clover is considered lucky because your chances of finding one with four leaves are about 1 in 10,000. Both versions are associated with the St. Patrick’s Day holiday.

Cleaning Supply Recipes and Labels

Make your own cleaning supplies with these recipes and labels. #printable #free #cleaning #recipes

lablels

Do you prefer to make your own cleaning supplies? Consider printing out these labels and grab a few spray bottles from the dollar store. Each label contains its own DIY recipe. If you want to make them all, you’ll need eight spray bottles, one 3 oz bottle (poop spray), and one condiment squirt bottle (toilet cleaner). The ingredients are simple and easily found as well. They include things you probably already have like vinegar, water, hydrogen peroxide, and a few others. 

The best part about making your own cleaning fluids is that you know the ingredients, and they cost a ton less than the store-bought brands. 

This file fits on Avery labels and is a free PDF file. [Label File]

Diamond Painting Chart

Grab this free diamond drill color chart. What a great reference. #free #printable #diamondpainting

diamond painting

Have you ever wondered about the color chart used for diamond painting? The colors assigned to the drills are referred to as DMC. You might be familiar with DMC in relation to embroidery thread. It is the same color chart.

DMC (Dollfus-Mieg and Company) is a French textile company created in 1746. There are 447 different DMC numbers, meaning that there are 447 differently colored diamonds available to use when diamond painting. Any leftover drills can be combined with others from different projects if the numbers are the same.

The DMC chart makes a great resource for diamond painting, as well as needlework. You can grab this free download printable in PDF form here. [DMC chart]
