This month we’re celebrating our bloggers and their creativity. In January 2015 at CHA, bloggers gathered at our CHA Networking Event to meet companies and to work more with us here on FaveCrafts. Each blogger was then sent a box filled with new craft products from the company sponsors. They set out to make projects from these new products and we were blown away by the results. We’re featuring these fantastic projects all month with giveaways so you can make your own versions of their wonderful crafts.

I have a dresser in my bedroom that is in desperate need of a makeover!
I’d like to redo a picture frame
I have some mismatched picture frames that I’d like to redo.
I would redo a chair
I have several projects that I could use these with. I think I’d start with turning my kitchen pantry door into a permanent chalk board calender and memo center.
Have a accent stand that the old paint is peeling and is desperate for a make over
I would like to redo an old chair I use in my sewing room-these would be perfect for that-thank you -great giveaway!
I would like to redo the message centre in my kitchen. Thanks for this chance to win.
I have several old school desks and chairs that need sprucing up. They would look adorable in the grandkids bedrooms !
Wow I would use this to post messages and questions to my grand daughters, and then they would answer me back…we all like chalk, [our driveway, (and sometimes the walls and floors): Wonderful].
I have an old chest I would love to decoupage
I have several picture frames I’d like to redo for a grouping on our dining room wall.
I bought a large glass-door cabinet at Good Will that was meant to hold golf balls, of all things! When I laid eyes on it, I knew it would be perfect for holding part of thread collection for sewing and embroidery. It works perfectly, but the finish is a dark red stain which doesn’t match my personality or my sewing room. This is what I’d use these great products on to make it gorgeous!
I would redo a jewelry box
one thing i would do is paint my spice bottles so i could label whats inside and then maybe tackle some shelves and cabenets i have in my craft room
I would re-do my craft room and some of items I have in there. Some I’ve had for years,but haven’t had some of the colors or supplies needed to do so.
Thank you for this opportunity!
this spring my husband is planning to finally redo our kitchen. I have plenty of ideas that are a kind of gathering of some of my favorite things to do in the process. I want to antique the finish on the counters and cabinetry, somewhere on the cupboard doors i will have my chalkboard for messaging.
I have been wanting to try chalk paint but my husband and I both are without jobs so if I could get this free I would be so happy.
This would be a welcomed addition to my new arts studio where I have several new projects in mind
My Muffin, aka granddaughter, and I would love to dress up our crafting area. Make our organizers a little nicer to look at and make us more efficient at the same time. Winning free stuff is always a BONUS!!!!
I would use this to redo a table in my living room! It would look amazing!!
I have family picture frames which need reworking. Just had a brand new great grand-daughter and she is a treasure.
I have a seashell mirror project going and this would be perfect to finish that up. Also, this would be great for a rock painting plan I have waiting in the back of my mind not to mention the great addition it would be to my craft closet!
I have an old chair that belonged to my parents on which the paint is badly chipped and I would use it to repaint it and make it look new again.
Would fix up a dresser.

As many others have posted, I’ve got some picture frames that I could redo. We’re (finally) getting some of our favourite family photos actually up on the walls, starting with the dining room. The photos are all in different types of frames, and it would be best to try and harmonize them. After that, I’ve a bunch of boxes and containers in my craft area that I could “harmonize” too! And then there’s creating art…. 🙂
I’m a children’s librarian, and I’d use it do something with the kids. We could fancy up a picture frame to hold a thank you picture for an author we have coming.

But the chalk paint to make notes next to the flannel design area is a new idea sparked by this giveaway.
Oh, so many ideas! I have a dresser I picked up from the side of the road that could use some loving. And those little folding tables that everyone seems to have…. well one got left outside for a couple days (opps.) which got me thinking about redoing them all!!

It would also help me with the other creative interests that I must learn since my disabilities no longer allow me to enjoy what I’ve always loved most; gardening, horseback riding and equine training. Though sit down jobs do not give much in the way of exercise, it at least allows me to keep my mind from shutting down and helping keep the severe depression at a tolerable level.
