Paper Flower Frames

This year for Christmas, I decided to hand craft most of my gifts. I needed the therapy crafting offers and it was fun! Here are some frames I made for my grandma and great aunt.
Supplies:
Wooden frames from Wal-Mart
Scrapbook paper
Modge Podge (paper formula)
Scissors
Exacto knife
Glue gun

I Modge Podged scrapbook paper to the front of the frame and trimmed around the edge with an exacto knife. I then applied a layer of Modge Podge to seal the paper. After, I created paper flowers to add some interest using a coordinating color paper. I found a great tutorial for paper flowers here: http://jonesdesigncompany.com/flowers/rolled-paper-flowers-tutorial/. After creating the flowers, I glued them using my glue gun. I printed a photo to put in the frame and done!

2.9.11 Kitchen Redo

This is not my kitchen but the cabinets are almost the exact same color as the ones in my kitchen. Time for a makeover! I did not want to take apart and sand my cabinets (lazy, right?) so I chose to use this Zissner cover stain. It is amazing stuff! You can find it at Lowe's. It covers and creates a surface that will be ready for your paint! http://www.lowes.com/pd_192480-90-3501_0 __ Here is my kitchen with a base coat in process. I decided to do two coats just to be sure my surface was prepared. After one evening of drying time, I started painting my cabinets. I decided to go with Valspar paint from Lowe's. I chose Kettle Black . After two coats of Kettle Black, I covered my cabinets with a coat of Valspar clear coat . This gave my cabinets another layer of protection. Here are my finished cabinets! I am very pleased with the final product!...
