Wooden Planter Box


Hi there! It's Debb from Clickersister's Gallery and I have a home decor project for you today. I started with a wooden hexagon planter from the hobby store, some extra spray paint that I had, and a few flowers and vines. I also used a piece of scrapbook paper but if you just want to spray paint the back, you could do that.

I spray painted the inside and outside and cut the paper to fit on the inside.

Then I had a scrap piece of floral foam (I just use what I have on hand), and I used hot glue to attach it to the inside of the box.

I picked out the dew drops to match my flowers and started inserting stems and flowers into the floral foam.

This was a lot easier than I thought it would be, and I really liked the look after I was finished!

Now to attach the dew drops with the dew dew glue. I used three on each corner.

This really turned out better than I imagined! Thanks for stopping by today!

Welcome!

 

Hi friends! Debb here from Clickersister's Gallery and I have a new project for you today!

I've made these before using the large carboard signs from the hobby store. They really are quick and easy but they look fantastic when they're done!

For this project I used a welcome sign. I chose patterned papers that went well together and Dew Drops to coordinate with the papers.

Start off by painting the edges of the cardboard. No need to paint the front, you'll be covering it with paper.

When the paint is dry, turn your paper and your cardboard face down and trace around each letter as good as you can. Where the letters are connected you'll have to "imagine" the cutting line. It's helpful to just do one letter at a time. Cut the letter out on the INSIDE of the pencil line so that it fits onto the FRONT of the letter when you turn it over. Gently glue into place.

This shows all the letters after they've been applied.

Now the fun part! Using the coordinating Dew Drops, place onto certain straight edges of the letters. If you like, you could actually line whole letters, but I chose to use a few other embellishments. Some ideas are: charms, small silk flowers and leaves, and ribbon.

      

I actually used a sari silk ribbon as a hanger after it was finished.

I hope you enjoyed this and thanks for joining me today!
