I have been itching to try it out!

9. Scrapbook Paper Flower Art

I love making the art that decorates my house- and I got a set of 7 canvasses for Christmas, so I'm glad I found this project so I could use one of them!

I saw this one on Pinterest this morning, and since I had all of the supplies, I tried it out while the baby was sleeping!

A Tip In-between

Here is just a quick decorating idea that I have used a few times.

 Place the head of a fake flower over a finishing nail for an easy and cute wall hanger!

Before

If the flower does not fit snugly, you can use a dot of hot glue to keep it on!

All done! Cute, huh?

8. Picture Plaques

This is one project that I am soooo happy with how it turned out.

The original picture I based this off of can be seen here:

7. The Classic "Hollow" Book

Wouldn't it be great to have one of those hollowed out books so you can store all of your money and jewelry from unsuspecting thieves? lol

I saw this picture on Pinterest:

This one is easier than I thought it would be, yet still tricky. 

6. Modpodge tinted glass

For a few weeks I have been trying to gather glass bottles, so that I can try this one out!

5. Melting Crayons!

Okay, everyone has their own take on this one-- you see it all over Pinterest. 

Using a hair dryer or heat gun to melt crayons into awesome pictures!

I wanted to do my own take on this, so I decided to make a rocket ship for E's room. It was insanely easy, and extremely gratifying to see those crayons just MELT so fast! Here's how it turned out:

So fun, everyone should try this!!!




**UPDATE**


I made a time-lapse video of me melting some crayons! Woot!

4. Foot print tree

I made these for the grandparents and I using E's footprints!

Here is the original pin:

Though it wasn't easy keeping him still, I was able to get paint on his feet fairly quickly to get these stamped. Here's how mine turned out:

Pretty cute, though not as neat as the original!

3. Candle apples

So this is an idea I tried for my Halloween party (yeahhh, and I'm only just getting around to posting it)

This was the original pin:

It was not too hard to get the candles in the tops of the apples-- I simply used a knife to hollow out a hole large enough for the candles to rest in. To keep the exposed part of the apple from browning, I added a squirt of lemon juice after I was done hollowing out the holes. Here's how it turned out:

I really thought it added to the atmosphere of the party!

2. Love bottle

For this one I tried to model it after this picture:

(I can't for the life of me find this pin to site it!! Help!)

This is how mine turned out:

This is pretty self-explanatory on how to do this- just use hot glue to write a word on a bottle, then spray paint it!
I used silver spray paint instead of white, and I really like it!
