A Little Plate Stand Makeover

I bid on this cute plate holder on ebay a little wile back and guess what, I won! I was so stoked and couldnt wait to get it in the mail. Well once I got it hubby didnt like it as it was and told me to “make it pretty”…So thats what I did =]

Before

After a little white paint to cover up the chipped parts and some pretty napkins this is what it looks like.

After

Please note the picture was taken by my 2 year old son =D But anyways, its not quite finished…As you can see I havent gotten around to painting the lids of the empty Gerber jars, they are getting spray painted red by the way. Its just been raining and iv been so busy but hopefully they get done this week! Oh the knobs for the drawers are getting painted red too =]

I promise to post a better picture of it once its all done!

Small Bathroom Face Lift

LOL Yup just a small face lift =p Our bathroom walls were so plane they needed something! Once again I turned to my favorite craft material Mod Podge to help with the face lift. Using some scrapbook paper, Mod Podge, canvas and ribbon I came up with these pretties.

Plain 'n Simple

Work In Progress

The title says it all LOL I started this a little while ago and just havent finished it =[ I need to add a few more things but hubby has to drill a couple of wholes 1st. It will eventually be in our bedroom holding my necklaces =]

Just For You Sis!

I started what I thought would be a box for my recipes that are just sitting in one of my kitchen drawers…Once I finished it I really liked it for my sister LOL so its getting mailed to her hopefully next week =]

Front View

This was super easy to make! All I used was a napkin which I cut the different pictures out of, some paint (as you can see I missed a part by the clasp) and Mod Podge! =]

After I had finished it and told my sister I had made her something with a coffee print on it for her kitchen, she told me her kitchen had a wine theme…Therefor I made her something else in that theme =]

Musical Wine

I LOVED the way these turned out! By the way its a set but they look exactly the same so I didnt see a reason to show both LOL Once again materials are, Mod Podge, napkins and decoupaging paper =] All I did was add it to an 8×10 canvas. I hope you like them sis!

Happy “Hero/Dad” Day

Yup, Hero and Dad…Thats my man! Here is the super quick card I put together for him while the kids napped lol

• Stamps and ink by CTMH
• Card stock by SU
• Brads by Making Memories
• Scrapbook Paper byDCWV

A Little Decor W/Mod Podge Part 2

So here is the second part of our bathroom bedroom decor. These were super simple to make! Both are made with 8×8 canvas, scrapbook paper, buttons, mod podge, and hot glue gun.

A Little Decor W/Mod Podge

Here is my new bathroom bedroom decor! Yes it was originally for the bathroom and ended up in our bedroom lol Here is what I started off with for the 1st project…

This is what they looked like from the side.

This is what they look like now after some spray paint, Mod Podge, coordinating scrapbook paper and beads. I was too inpatient to order knobs so I used beads instead =]

Like I said they were suppose to be for the bathroom lol

Loved the way they turned out! I would have never thought id be the one to be making my own decor LOL I guess thats what married life does to one =p

Fabric Flower Galore

I got a bit carried away today making flowers lol Both my boys were eating dinner and I needed something to do =] Can you tell I really enjoy making them? LOL There is only 2 with the hair clips on them because those were the only two I had so I need to go buy more…I tried putting a bobby pin on them but didnt like the way it held my hair, the snap hair clips stay much better in my hair. And yes there is 3 black ones but a girl can never have too many black hair accessories or black anything for that matter! LOL Well at least in my opinion =p Oh and yes the center of some of the flowers are brads! Also pictured is the one from my last post.

My Attempt @ Fabric Flowers

I keep seeing all these beautiful fabric flowers I just had to try to make one on my own! Hey it’s not like I don’t have a box full of fabric scraps! LOL I YouTubed tutorials and thought they weren’t to difficult and I had the material except for the fabric glue, which I went out and bought yesterday =] So after putting the boys to bed I sat and attempted my 1st one.

For starters don’t mind how dirty my table looks, it’s just the glue I was using =[ Ok so this 1st attempt was just gluing and twisting and rolling the fabric onto the piece of felt…I didn’t like it, but that’s just me. ( My hubby didnt like it either) To me it was just too stiff and the glue I was using gets kinda messy. Yuck!

Now this one you can tell I liked LOL What I did with this one was just twisted the fabric and rolled it, keeping it secure with my fingers….Then I just stitched the back of it and added the button in the center also sewing it on. Once that was done I glued the felt to the back to secure it once more and make the back look pretty =] It will be added to a bobby pin soon.

They are so easy and fun to make that I will be making more soon!

Army Decouged Drawers

Im so proud of my latest project, mostly because it was for my hubby and he loved it! Here it is =]

My hubby’s had the drawers for a while and iv always wanted to do something with them but wasnt sure what…A few weeks ago Amy over at ModPodge Rocks posted on her FB page a project someone else did with the same drawers and Mod Podge so I just had to do the same thing with his! LOL

Above  is the one that my hubby started but didnt get to finish because I was out of that scrapbook paper.
