My D.I. Designs

SoI have been a huge fan of the D.I. lately. If you go and dive in a look around you can find some great stuff. Here are a few fab finds.
I got the cute clock, old books, and this awesome suit case!
And I made this way cute mail and key holder
It started out as just a wood shutter that said something like "Teddy Bear Time" and a porclein teddy was attached to it.
So I broke off teddy, painted it black, and added cute litte hooks for my keys... and this is it!!
And here is my new table center piece. It started as a chess board like this

I took the top chess part off and added little legs...



And got some gold candle holders and what look like mini wine glasses.
Well I painted the gold black and frosted the top of the mini glasses...
And TA-DA this is the result.
I thought it turned out nice :)

My weekend finds

I wake up Saturday happy knowing that my check is has been deposited into my account so I get ready and I am out the door going to scavenge for crafts at a good deal. I went to Roberts and got a few misc. things i got some magnets that were on sale for a $0.99. And a few Christmas clearance stuff.

I hit hobby lobby ( big trouble) I could not help my self!
I found these wood things ( for lack of better words) but they are great cause a quick coat of spray paint and they ready to go. $1.99 each



Then I found these bag of feathers for $1.99 it does not get any better.


Then I stopped at Walmart for a quick stop for some things for the house and I found these. They are Christmas ornaments that were on clearance for $0.25. They made way cute magnets!


But did I stop there.... NOPE!
I was on my way home and I heard a little voice in my head saying.. "Provo Craft.. Provo Craft.."
And this is what I found. Oh ya and when I said it does not get any better well IT DID.
The little chipboard cut outs were $0.75! And the eggs were $0.90- i though they would be way cute with some scrapbook paper over them.

And these stars were like $0.35, $.045, and $0.90. And I spray painted them black and distressed the edges and these are them.


I found this birdcage for $7.00!
Last but not least this little bitty hammer it is perfect for my crafts from the dollar store. $1.00 of course.
Oh ya here are a few magnets I made from some of the stuff I found from that day. I almost forgot the flurdelise wood pieces I got all 4 for $1.99 at Hobby Lobby.

I did it!!

Ok so one day I was at work when Alyssa introduced my to this blog Shanty 2 Chic. And I fell in LOVE!!!! I wanted to do everything they had done. So I go to Hobby Lobby and get all my supplies. And off I was going to build me some apothacary jars! YEAH!!! So here is the finished product, I am pretty proud of how they turned out.


Oh ya and my new choice of drug is HOBBY LOBBY. I could walk around that store for hours and hours. I could even live there for the rest of my life. They have everything you could ever want and then some. And the best part of all most of the stuff I bought was on sale!!! AWWW I think I have died and gone to crafters heaven......
