Being so long since I have posted I have a handful of crafts that I have finished up:
1. Monogram Knife Block: I found this knife block at a Goodwill for $2 took it home to spruce it up. I had seen monogram blocks on pinterest and figured I would try it out. I'm loving it so far!
2. Glitter Heels: So my puppy decided that I didn't need my nude heels anymore and stole one and chewed it up, luckily I saved it before it was completely destroyed. I absolutely loved those heels because they fit perfectly so not wanting to throw them out I followed this tutorial http://lauryngallowayblog.com/diy-glitter-heels/ I found on Pinterest and Voila...fixed my chewed up sides and funky glitter shoes. I used regular glitter instead of the fine stuff, so mine aren't quite as smooth looking as the one in the link but they still look fine.
3. Sharpie Mugs: These were probably the easiest thing. I had 4 white mugs lying around and this tutorial http://www.abeautifulmess.com/2012/06/his-her-sharpie-mug-diy.html all you do is write on them and bake them for 30 minutes at 350. So simple and look really great. They would also make super neat gifts. I picked quotes from literature (Gone With the Wind, Mark Twain, Anne Frank, etc.) but you could do pictures, monograms, whatever you wanted.
4. Cross Canvas: This was an old canvas I had lying around and I just painted this design, simple simple simple.
5. Magnetic Makeup Board: probably the most useful thing ever. I had my makeup in a container and it took forever to find in the morning so I found this magnetic dry erase board at Michael's on sale and then just attached magnets to the back of my makeup with hot glue...this took a little while. It is such a big help and looks pretty cool on my bathroom wall too.
So those are some things that have been keeping me busy lately. Hope you enjoy :)
Blessings,
Erin
