I’ll admit it. I have Pinterest problems. Mainly that I love pinning cute craft projects but they never make their way off my computer screen and into my living room. Even when alone, I find Michael’s a bit daunting. I may or may not find what I’m looking for. And, if I do, I’m left overwhelmed with choices. So for my latest project, I skipped the store altogether and shopped with Darby Smart. And I’m so glad I did!
Darby Smart is an online marketplace that provides unique project ideas, pre-packaged DIY kits and tested crafting supplies. Take a minute to check out their site—it’s like a mini-Pinterest right there! From DIY pillows to jewelry to wood burning, there’s a bit of everything! And Darby Smart doesn’t just sell craft supplies—they test them first in their own testing lab. So when you order from Darby Smart, you know you are getting the highest quality product out there!
I decided to try out Darby Smart’s personalized throw pillows. When my order came, it was just as I expected. I had everything I needed to make two adorable pillows. And not only did I have the supplies, I had step by step directions as well. The project also included some fun printables to use as stencils for my pillows, but I decided to use my own designs. I tried out a family of birds on a wire and some birch trees –things that represented my family and made the finished product that much more personal. And I love the results! I actually made something Pinterest-worthy!
Darby Smart was founded in 2013 by Nicole Shariat Farb when she took a leap of faith and quit her job at Goldman Sachs to start her own business. Darby Smart scours the Internet for unique projects and packages them up for consumers in a collection of kits. She is committed to empowering business women and entrepreneurs by partnering with over 2,500 designers to help get their ideas out to the masses. I love that my crafting can help another mom realize her dreams!
Check out some of the other super fun kits Darby Smart has right now. Chalkboard coaster, champagne flutes, funky necklaces and leather luggage tags. They even sell a mystery DIY kit that would make for a super fun moms night in. Invite a few friends over, have some snacks, craft something fabulous. Turn your Pinterest problems into successes and have some fun in the process with Darby Smart.
