New Hobby!

Have been trying my hand at the crafty-home decor thing lately. Very fun and the outcomes have been pretty good so far! Here's some results:

Here's the before....$2 at Goodwill.

After: A little paint ans some distressing with sandpaper!

This lantern was already green. Just added the fun decor inside!

                                                   Found this frame at Goodwill. Added a fresh coat of white paint and

                                                 distressed it a bit.

                                                      Printed up the "facts" (if you will) in Word and added a green piece of

                                                 scrapbook paper!

Baptism gift for my nephew!

Before: Old candle stick and a small glass....$.99 each!

After: Added some paint, distressed, and hot glued together.

Brand new candle holders!

Before: (Sorry, no picture.) Just a black frame...no glass, no back.

After: Added 2 coats of paint (no distressing this time), spray painted some branches from outside,

found a link on how to make paper flowers online, and added some

fake grass already on hand from the green lantern.

Took this the other weekend when all the trees were blooming! Easy and free new

desktop background at work!! :)

Will try to keep posting my projects. Have a few in the works. It's just finding the time to do them!!!!
