New Creations to Share

Besides Christmasy ideas, I have made a few one of a kind things this past week. I took them to the shop where my items are on consignment, Now and Then. The Game piece is in an old cheese box. I actually added a couple more bits to it after I took this picture.

"JOY" is an ornament with rub on letters on an old Spoon that I bent backwards and fluffed up with lace and black ribbon.

I also took in the little tray with stamps that I made several months ago and showed before.



It is so fun to come up with things to create but without the pressure of trying to crank out huge amounts for a specific sale.


After all, if it ain't fun, why do it?

Stamp It Up!

Fun little project while watching tv. These sweet little trays can be found at Michaels's for just a buck. I painted all the tray except for the top surface with glossy black, then sanded it down a bit. Picked out some favorite stamps to glue down, with my fave man, Mr. Lincoln, in the middle.

Gave the entire piece a coat of matte finish Mod Podge, then the stamped area a final coat. SO FUN! Would be a good project for the kids when they are yelling there is NOTHING TO DO!

Having a bit of a problem with setting out my pics within the blog. Sorry for the space here where another picture should be.
