It’s Monday!  Hope you enjoyed your weekend.

Our weather was the pits.  A couple of weeks ago it was nice enough to stain the deck, and now it’s cold and dreary enough for a winter hat.     That’s how quickly things can change around here. Welcome to ‘June-uary’ in the Atlantic Ocean.

So, while waiting for the boys to awake this morning, I hit my Pinterest file, A Pop of Happy, because there’s nothing like pretty eye candy for an injection of energy. I’ve been collecting projects and images there that just make me smile.

Here’s five happy crafty projects  that could cure any rainy Monday blues.

1. Paint your wooden spoons in a rainbow.

Check this project out at Little Bit Funky.

2.  Spray-paint kitschy finds & plastic toys in fun hues. 

Check it out at blogcraftzine.com.

 3. Paint a fun,chunky bead necklace.

Find this tutorial at Laura Parke, A Girl Who Makes.

4. Paint an adorable neon animal garland.

See how it’s made at hgtv.com.

5.  Make a lit flower garland from cupcake wrappers.

See how it’s done at Oh Happy Day.

I don’t know about you, but that kind of color always makes me happy!

The thing I love about them best?  All you need are items you probably already have!

Have a fab Monday.

Until next time,
