Bachelorette gift DIY

I bought the items to make a honeymoon survival kit. Loved how it turned out and so did the bride!

Kitchen wedding cake!

This is a gift for a friend of mine's wedding and I love the way it turned out! I used oven mits, pot holders, dish rags, and dish towels to make up the thickness and out design for the layers of the " cake." I used safety pins to pin it all together then hot glued ribbon around and to itself so the towels weren't messed up. Lastly, I ised burlap glued to the ribbon and fabric flowers I had made to finish the decor. Then I placed the utensils in different parts of the ribbon to add the final touch. Cute and easy and not too expensive. Be #craftfabulous !

Get organized!

My house has literally turned upside down. Not following my home notebook has left me with a disaster to clean up. I will post pics soon to show the finished product of organization, but I must first get started...

I "weathered" and painted two mirror frames today.

It is so simple. Use crackle glaze, or Elmer's glue (much cheaper option).
1) Cover a layer over the item continuing brush strokes in the same direction and let dry 1-4 hours (OR lightly blow dry until tacky).
2) Then paint over the item with your desired top coat paint. I suggest latex or acrylic (acrylic dries faster, which is good for needs to be finished quickly projects).

3) Let dry and voila! Also, if you don't prefer the cracks to be the original color of the item, apply a base coat and let dry before beginning with the process of weathering with glaze or glue.

The green is actual pastel, and after letting it dry, I went back with some paint to give more detail for my needs.
