Recent Crafts

I've been doing A LOT of crafting, organizing, and decorating around my house lately. These are my favorite three things to do...probably way to much. Recently, Melinda Lanier from Lanier Household Creations had another craft day where we got to make items for the home. These crafts are super easy and so much fun to make. Here are my favorite wall-hangings that I made.
{16x20 plywood, white paint, black vinyl, Mod Podge-Glossy}
{6x24 plywood, white paint, black vinyl, Mod Podge-Glossy}
{12x12 plywood, 6x6 plywood piece for center, blue paint, beige vinyl, Mod Podge-Matte, wood glue}
I've also been working on framing some of my family photos. I had gone to Hobby Lobby, Michael's, Walmart, and quite a few other places in hopes that I would find some cute wall collage frames. As it turned out, I had no such luck. I just didn't find any that I liked and that were affordable. So, I decided I would create my own from two 8x10 frames that I picked up on clearance at Michael's. They were on sale for $1.74 each from $4.99. I think that's a pretty good deal!


I grabbed my family pictures...

I used some scrapbook paper that I had lying around for the background...

I grabbed my photo glue, ribbon, stickers, rub-ons, & scissors...

and whalla! My very own and personalized wall collage frames! 



 I haven't decided where to hang my wall hangings and collage frames yet, but once I figure it out I will make sure to let you all know! 

Have a wonderful day!
