There's something about spring that just inspires creativity. Maybe it's the unmistakable scent of freshly cut grass and flowers blooming. Maybe it's the longer, sunnier days. Whatever the reason is, this time of year makes us feel craftier than usual - and this is a great thing! After all, crafting comes with a ton of health benefits. With the phenomenon of spring creativity in mind, we've compiled a list of four DIYs that encapsulate the magic of this beautiful time of year (without being cliché). Which DIY are you most excited to make?
