Time for true confessions– I’m not a crafty mom. At all. Not much of a cook either.
But, I can read directions so I totally rely on cookbooks and crafty books.
Hooray for books!
I am so happy with The Artful Parent‘s new eBook, The Artful Year: Autumn because it’s so easy for un-crafty people like me. My kids and I have been trying all the projects and now our home is decorated with beautiful nature-inspired autumn art!
One of our favorites was melting crayons over rocks. Wow!
Another favorite were these Mod Podge leafy rocks.
Oh, and I have to tell you new idea. See the green stripes underneath the rock? You’ll never guess what it is. It’s not a tablecloth, it’s a shower curtain! My new crafty tablecloth. 
I highly recommend this book. It’s only $9.99 and worth every penny to have lots of ideas for autumn crafts at your fingertips and to support the fabulous work of Jean Van’t Hul.
Disclosure: I received my copy of the book for free.
