There’s nothing better than a homemade gift, but a homemade gift can sometimes go wrong too. Pinterest provides endless inspiration for easy crafts and gifts, but just like everyone, I’ve had some Pinterest “fails” when trying to replicate a seemingly easy craft!
That’s why I love the concept of Darby Smart craft kits. I received a First Snow Glass Ornaments craft kit to test out recently and I was so excited to add a personalized touch to our Christmas tree. Darby Smart kits contain everything needed to create beautiful do-it-yourself crafts and gifts including easy to follow instructions sure to produce great results.
The ornament kit was simple, but so classy. I received six glass ornaments, three shades of Martha Stewart Acrylic metallic paint and a Silver Sakura paint pen. I just poured a little paint into each of the ornaments and shook them until the inside was coated. After they had dried, I used the paint pen to write on the outside of the ornaments. I decided to personalize them with our names for a special touch and they turned out so pretty!
It was a simple craft that produced beautiful results and I was so impressed by how easy it had been. Darby Smart also offers craft kits suitable for all kinds of other occasions, including customized champagne flutes, decorative pillows and handmade jewellery. If you have somebody crafty on your Christmas list, a Darby Smart monthly TO DIY FOR subscription makes a great last minute gift too. Check out the site for yourself and find Christmas gifts and other projects that will have you crafting like a pro!




This is a great kit! Would be so fun! I wonder if it will be available this year, too?
I have never heard of these, but love that everything is in the kit. Will have to keep my eyes peeled for these for next year with my daughter.
A great way to get back into crafting. I guess I have to wait til Christmas now.
This is such a great idea to ad something personal to Christmas. My kids love to do crafts, so this would be a perfect family project!!
I love this! You did such a great job, too!
These are beautiful. I did something like this with my kids at work but not quite as lovely as these are!
Always like doing crafts with the kids, these are cute to add to the top of presents as well!
