Fashionably Late....

So I'm a little late to the party. Gimme a break - I am the sickest I have been in YEARS! But wild horses couldn't keep me away from Amanda's Crafty Cutter Love party!


Serenity Now Crafty Cutter Party

Today I'm sharing a project that I actually shared a couple of years ago for Mod Podge Mania (which is coming up at the end of this month BTW!!)

I started out with this cute little wooden chair that had been part of a small desk set for my kids.

I sprayed it white, and let it dry completely. Next I found some fun, happy cardstock. The 12x12 size was perfect to cover the seat, with just a little trimming to make it fit properly. I then used Mod Podge to adhere it to the chair.

I next used my cricut "Walk in my Garden" cartridge - by FAR my favorite cartridge. I use it for everything! I cut a cute little ladybug and flower, and the word "smile". I used my Mod Podge again to hold them in place, then covered with several generous coats of Mod Podge and let dry completely!

I love it! What do you think? My daughter also ADORES it - so I guess I would consider it a success!

I'm anxious to see what everyone else has come up with, and if you'd like to see too, head on over to Amanda's to link up, or just check out all the other crafty cutter goodness!

How adorable is that??? Soooo cute! *LOVE*IT*

Everybody has this freakin' thing called a cricut. Apparently, I need to invest so I can be with the cool kids.

How lame and I that it took me this long to get down the list to your post??! I think this would be such a neat gift for a little person. I bet you could snag a chair or two at the thrift store and whip some up. Love it! Thanks for linking up with me. :)

Hand Made for Fall - A party and a Giveaway!

I've been a busy girl! I have been wanting to do a giveaway for Fall, and when my fab friend Heidi revealed that her Monthly Craft Challenge for October would be Fall-themed crafts, I thought "YES! I will do a giveaway of Fall items - handmade by me!" So today I'm linking up with Heidi , and introducing my Handmade For Fall Giveaway as I show you what I've made for Heidi's party ! Sound good? First, a while back I showed you some coasters that I made, but it was clear back when I first started blogging, so I'm going to show you again with this new seasonal set! This idea has been floating around blog land, and I've seen several different variations. Here's how I do it. You will need: paper napkins, 4x4 ceramic tiles, 4x4 cork squares, MOD PODGE (what else?), sponge brushes (not shown), and polyurethane (not shown). Start by cutting your napkin down to a manageable size, slightly bigger than your tile. Next spread a layer of mod podg onto the t...
