Supplies:

Scissors
Hot Glue Gun

            

Super easy and super chic!

The Many Faces of Mason Jars

Mason Jars, Ball Jars, Pickling Jars call them what you want to call them but do one thing with them...collect them.  Look at all these fun ways to re-face, re-purpose or decorate with them.  After this you will be looking right and left for a simple glass jar.

Right Brain Expressions: Star Fish Door Hanger


Made this cute little hanging piece for our front door the other night. It's summer time so we figured we needed to bring a little beach decor into our Kansas home.


All it took was a few star fish ($2.99 at Hobby Lobby) and any type of twine, string or rope (also $2.99 at Hobby Lobby).  Wrap your twine around the tops of each star fish at different hanging lengths, keeping a loop at the top, and voila!

Right Brain Expressions: Fancying a Frame

BEFORE:


AFTER:

I needed something fun for a blank area of my wall in my bedroom. I don't have much shelf space for picture frames, and my room was lacking pictures. I found this wooden frame at T.J. Maxx for $8, and thought it would be perfect to paint and hang pictures on that blank area.

 

I used acrylic paint, and was just going to leave it this sort of strawberry color, but then I thought it looked a little plain. I took a design from my bed spread and recreated it on the frame with one of the colors in the bed spread, also with acrylic paint.


It's amazing what a little paint can do to something so plain.
