Bottle Vase, painting with paper

Hi crafters!! Gosh, it's been so long since I've posted. I am excited to begin March with these awesome bottle vase creations. I got the idea from bud vase from mod podge rocks.
See the photo's how these beautiful vase's came together.
Tools used:
empty beer bottles, labels washed off
tissue paper
scrapbook paper
magazine
and of course my favorite: Outdoor Mod Podge

The amazing yellow one was created by the beautiful EspirituMente, who you can find at http://espiritumente.deviantart.com/
And the blue one by yours truly =)

Start by adding your 1st layer of tissue paper, like this:











Get your cut outs ready, and then Go! Go! Go!
Let the imagination and creative juices flow.

New Years Eve Headbands

Happy New Year!! wish ya lots more craftastic-crafting for the new year. ...Keep crafting!

These headbands were made with supplies from the Dollar Tree. I used a hot glue gun to hold things down. Fun and easy to make.



For the 2012 signs: I used paper, a glue stick, marker, glitter glue, and Mod Podge, to seal it in. And, a hot glue gun to attach the 2012's to the wire garland.

Grave Yard

Creepy cute grave yard. Made from recycled house items. The tree is made from a brown bag, Mod Podge'd together. The grave stones are felt on one side and pieces of a granola box on the other, the box helps them stand tall. The fencing is also made from the same granola box. And, the foundation is made from an empty CD case painted black. All items were hot glue gunned down for stability.

Make your own! It really only took a couple hours, and that's because I had to wait for the paint to dry.  All I want now is a tiny ceramic ghost to float through. =)

Felt Pumpkin Table Topper #2



 I had a great time putting this one together. I had originally planned on putting 3 pumpkins. But by the time they were stuffed they were huge and only 2 managed to fit together. This one will sit at home on the coffee table.
