Fall/Halloween Dollar Store Crafts!!

Ok, I love this! You can use it to serve chips &dip, fruit & dip, or whatever you can come up with. all you need it a dinner plate, bowl or salad plate for top (i choosed bowl for dip), candle stick holder, or i used in the 1st one a wine glass, and 2nd i used a glass candle bowl, plus some glue E6000 its like $3 at walmart.....i added little things inside mine(optional) I used on 1st one some fall leaves and mini pincones, the 2nd put little mini pumpkins and spiders(fake..lol).  Simple put E6000 around edge of bottom base of candle holder, glass, or whatever you choose, then put in place on center of big plate, then add glue to top edge around and place center of bowl or small plate(dont forget your items in middle if you are doing that before you place top on)...I would let it set 24hrs to be safe.

TADA...a wonderful decorative piece for a party. i think am going to make a christmas one as well and put little mini ornaments inside the middle peice.

Second craft was one i did with my kids, they loved it. Guess which one is mine! LOL all you need is different size candle holder, artist paint brushes, and acrylic paint (color your choice), tealights or battery operated ones.....simple paint the main color inside & paint a face on the outside....when my kids go to bed am going to make a frankenstein....but anyhow great deco to sit all around the house at halloween party!

Thats all for now!! Hope you like it!

Simple Fall Craft!!

Well I had a hurricane glass sitting in my kitchen empty,  i have had so many idea to do with and i finally acted on one. so i etched a D into the glass using a dremel tool, then i added a little brown ribbon. I used pinecones from my yard (free, i have no clue why people buy pinecones), and fall leaves from dollartree. and TADA a fall decoration. Plus no need to put it up in storage after fall, you can change it up when the season changes. ;)

This weekend was great!!

AWESOME..What more can i say about painting in my house! I got to throw some new colors up on my walls, in my dining room & bathroom. I am excited about my bathroom makeover, and cant wait til my shower curtain and towels get here. Did a few improvements too. Next weekend I will paint my living room.I also had fun using a dremel tool to etch in glass, and i can say it was not as easy as i had hope. The tool vibrates and it was hard to have a steady hand. I want to try it on wood just to see. I was going to start to crochet projects, but since i was painting  in the house by myself it took more time then i figured for, but there is always next time. :) I also have two art projects i want to do, i am going to get 2 canvas this week for that so i can have new art for my walls.
Well am new to this blogger, but i will get around to taking some pictures this week of some art & crafts I have done recently and in the past. I am not a great artist, but i love what i do. The more art & crafts I do the happy I am. LOL Thats all for now.
