A Monday


My Monday was a very pleasant break from the norm. I was able to spend all day at home working on projects. It was wonderful!





My husband & I are also gearing up for The Avenger's premier this Thursday. Here's what I've been working on-


I hope Tuesday proves to be as productive.

Saturday Morning



I found this fantastic painting last Saturday morning at our local Goodwill. It was 1/2 price day, so I nabbed this beauty for $4! I have a pretty great upcyling plan for this painting that I will start working on right after visiting...

*the local Antique Market
*the comic book shop
*some friends
*John Carter
*and my family for Game Night

Should be a pretty fun Saturday. :)

Hope your day is as lazy or productive as you wish it to be!

Somthing Crafty


Here's a quick and simple crafting challenge-

*Grab a couple of plain clothespins, acrylic paint (or nail polish!), and some brushes
*Get crafty and start painting!

I whipped my clothespins up in about 10min... drying time included!

I'm thinking about adding a magnetic strip to the back of mine as well to make some ultra cute clippy-magnets.

Hope you enjoyed this. :)

Shirt Painting


This is my very first D.i.Y. post! I'm going to show a really simple way to spruce up an old t-shirt.
Supplies:
*t-shirt
*masking tape
*fabric paint
(not shown: acrylic paint and paint brushes)


First you'll want to tape off a design on your t-shirt. I chose a heart with some stripes... simple enough.


Next, start painting in your design. Since my shirt was black I had to give my design a white base coat with an acrylic paint. 



***


Once your design has dried all the way you can peel off your tape.



I wanted to add a litte more detail to my white design, so I used a fabric marker to give my shirt a little more character.


Go ahead and  add some detail to your design.



And there you have it! You're very own, newly re-vamped t-shirt.

Hope you enjoy it!
