Sweet & Simple Thursday

Good morning! Hope you guys are having a good day so far :) So today for Thrifty Thursday i'm sharing something really really easy to make! I know it's kinda early because it's not quite Christmas yet but i couldn't wait to make it! I got the stand, the lace and the stamp at a yard sale! I got a whole bunch of different lace for like a dollar! I paid $4 for the stamp and quarter for the stand! Can't beat that right? The tile i got at Lowe's. Even though that wasn't from a yard sale or a thrift store, i only paid like .89 cents for it! NICE :)

okay so all i did was stamp the tile with StazOn Ink, add some lace and that was it! Since it's just a house decor i didn't bother adding acrylic to it. The Ink does a really good job as it is of not coming off. I know you guys might not find the same thing but i would really encourage you that when you can, go yard selling! I go on Saturdays and i cant't tell you how the Lord blesses it every time! He always leads me to the right place to get good deals! I love it :) And it's so much fun!!!

I'm sure you too will find great little treasures and turn them into something beautiful. Have a bless day!

Thrifty Thursday Frame Makeover

Okay so today i wanted to share a quick idea on how to give a frame a little make over! I got the frame at a thrift store for .50 cents and everything else i already had so that's all i spent!!!

Here's a few pictures of the step by step process :)

You will need:

Mod podge

sponge brush

pen

scissors

ruler

pretty paper frame

felt to make some cute flowers or any other embellishment (optional)

Get your paper, frame and tools ready.

Trace your frame onto the paper.

Once it's measured, cut it out.

Now grab your ruler. Measure and trace the inside of the rectangle so that you cut it out and it'll make the shape of the frame! Hope this makes sense :/

Just like this!

Okay so after you cut it set it on top of your frame to make sure its the same size and you didn't miss anything.

Now apply a thin layer of mod podge on your frame where your going to set the paper.

Once it's set, add another layer of mod podge. Make sure that your paper doesn't have any bubbles or creases! (you can add 2-3 layers of mod podge, it's really up to you!)

And your done! Add a cute embellishment, your favorite picture and admire your simple craft!

God bless!
