Here are some of my things I've been making. I've tried to include the sites they're from if I can find them.
The lunch box from here inspired me to make these. I filled each one with 3 sets of magnetic letters and a set of numbers. One was for Ally and the other for my niece. MANY layers of Mod Podge. I added Martha Stewart ultra fine silver glitter to glossy Mod Podge to get the glitter effect. LOVE how they turned out!
This is my Playroom Rules board that I first saw here. I was originally planning on using a fun bright animal print fabric that my sister gave me when she was cleaning out her fabric stash. HOWEVER, fabric Mod Podge and I are NOT friends. It didn't stick to the canvas all the way and was all bubbly and just didn't look good. THEN when I put the letters on it to see how they looked, it was REALLY hard to see the letters. Apparently busy fabric doesn't work for putting letters over. Oops. I pulled the fabric off the canvas because I wasn't about to go spend money for ANOTHER canvas. It tore off some of the gesso and I had to add some to try and make it a bit smoother. It ended up looking like a textured wall. Oh well. Back to the drawing board. I decided to paint stripes with acrylic paint and then since it was so "boring" I made MORE of the glittery Mod Podge with more of my Martha ultra fine silver glitter LOADED into it. I stamped the swirls with a foam stamp and the dots (after going thru everything round I could find trying to find the "perfect dot") are my finger tip dipped in the Mod Podge mix. The letters were put on and then 3 layers of Mod Podge were added. It was finally done after a damn WEEK!
These are some of the MANY MANY hats I've been making from Fleece Fun. They're so much fun to make. I made Ally, hubby and I monkey hats. I made Brobee hats of my own design using the basic hat pattern for Ally and my nephew. I made bunny hats for Ally and 2 of her cousins. I made polar bear hats for Ally, my nephew, and his soon to be born sibling. The puppy hats were for my nephew and his soon to be born sibling. I made a dragon hat for myself from lots of scraps for the horns. The raiders hats were my own design too from the basic hat and the horns.
Remember, Pinterest is BAD! :)
