Look what I made! Linkin it up!

This box has been sitting on a shelf for sometime. I don't recall where I had gotten it but it was a jewelry box for the girls for about 2 years now. I had promised myself to refashion it into something else... I did take steps to actually write a "To-do" list for my creative endeavors and this was on the list.


Though, since writing the list I misplaced it and may have to start again, SIGH!


I was also inspired by several blogs to make nests under glass! So during our thrift store jaunts I found a cheese holder! Not a chip in the dome! I proudly took my new found item, along with many more interesting things to check out, while Terry is standing behind me asking me why I needed this or that? We don't eat that much cheese! Shaking his head and grinning, whatever makes Mama happy. Gosh I love that man!

Anyway! I also found a box of plastic eggs to refashion with old sheet music. I picked up some moss and plan to maybe have a new found ceramic figure peeking out from the eggs. I am not sure yet. But as always I keep saying I will place these on etsy. Eventually.

I guess I'm afraid I won't sell anything. I do eBay and go through some good weeks and bad weeks. I guess I need to put on my Big Girl panties and just try it!

Happy Saturday!

Linking this up with Shanty2Chic!

My favorite Mod Podge cabinet!

I love this cabinet! I used bits of brown kraft paper, handmade paper, bits of wall paper samples, old skeleton keys and old vintage photos!

I love old pictures! I enjoy using them in many of my projects. If you look close enough sometimes they can tell you a great story about the person. Of course way back most times the subject was without any smile or emotion. I have to wonder what is going on in their head at that time.
One of my favorite things to do when I am at antique shops or thrift stores is to dig through the pics! I wander if anyone will use my mug in they're craft projects eons from now?

Mod Podge Jewelry pendant mini books!

I went alittle nuts with this! I had seen some books made with Mod Podge recently and decided to kick it up a bit. I really wish I had some more jewelry supplies to put on jump rings, but I am being frugal and using what I have on hand! I plan to put these on Etsy soon! I had fun making them and they are pretty addicting!

To give you an idea how big these are...

I can't wait to make more! Or wear them!
