Craft of the Day

                                                                          Before
                                                               After (Needed a lil Bling :)




My crafting mind was itching today :) I had gotten these cardboard letters from the craft store awhile back and they have been sitting on my shelf since then. I couldn't decide what I wanted to use them for well today I was feeling the decoupage HEHE so this is what I came up with....

Supplies Needed:

  • 1 Cardboard letter of your choice.. I used "The Paper Studio" Chip Decor from Hobby Lobby " I've also used just wooden letters as well.
  • Scrapbook Paper of your choice ( I only used one sheet but feel free to get creative with it)
  • Modge Podge
  • Hot glue and glue gun
  • Ribbon for top loop hanger and bow



  • embellishments( Hint Hint I hit up old homecoming mum corsages from high school which shhhh was ages ago LOL)
Directions:
I just modge podged the paper onto the letter I cut the paper into 3 pieces and worked my way around them. Then I made a bow and hot glued it to the middle( To mostly hide an imperfection in the paper but shhh... don't tell :P ). Then I just cut a piece of ribbon about 20 in long and hot glued it the back of the letter and you are ready to go :)


Thanks SO much and Happy Cr@fting ,

Craft of the Day

Ok so I really needed a place to display the bows that I'm goin to put out to sell at a hair salon and I wracked my brain to put together a "display case" if you will. But I didnt want to spend alot of money(well any money if I could arrange that LOL ). So I came up with this little number :). 

Supplies Needed:
  • 1 frame (I used a 20x20 frame from an old picture I had)
  • scrapbook paper (any collection you would like)
  • 7/8 in Ribbon any color that coordinates with your paper
  • glue, tape, or staples to secure the ribbon to the back and the paper to the cardboard
  • scissors 
  • and of course your little ones favorite bows :)

Directions:

First: I decided the arrangement of the paper I wanted then I used a little modge podge on the back of the paper and secured it to the cardboard that came with my picture frame.

Second: I Secured the ribbon which I cut into 18in pieces to the back of the board with "Terrifically Tacky Tape from Provo Craft".

Third: I secured the cardboard to the backboard that came with the picture frame and took out the glass front as well.

Fourth and final step: Arranged my bows!!!! :) hopefully my soon to be customers appreciate the subtle creativity of this simple project.

Craft Of The Day

I needed a place to store Small Bows and Barrettes but I wanted something cute and unique. I got this jewelry holder for Christmas and haven't used it yet (mostly because i was to lazy to go through my many jewelry boxes and put the most precious of ones on this really cute dress form :p) so I decided to use it as a place to display my bows I have been working on :)))
