Hey guys! I’m Vanessa and I blog about my love for glitter and glue guns at See Vanessa Craft.

Rustic and Recycled Tablescape Hi, I’m Angela, from Angela’s Adventures….a place where I share snippets of  my life as a stay at home mommy and my crafting and cooking adventures.

Because I love making things beautiful without spending much, I’m super excited to share my “Rustic and Recycled Tablescape” with you today.  This tablescape was created in honor of Earth Day, with as many recycled materials as I could find around my home. First, let’s back track {…Read More…}
