Alter Clothes Pins for Valentine's Day Magnets

Hi Friends. Happy New Year. I got a lil crafty this weekend.

I didn't take many pics, but before I altered these clothes pins I painted with some red water color paints. While I was modge podging the paper to the pin I added some tinsel glitter. I didn't have any chunky glitter....it would have worked too.

The hearts are chipboard pieces from last year's leftover stash.

Personalized Hurricane Lamps

Hi there crafty friends...I wanted to drop in with a post. You may have seen this on FB...so just skip if you're seeing it double...LOL.

 
 
I got this idea from Joy at Joy's Life. Here is her tutorial Hurricane Lamps from Dollar Store Glass. Like her, I got the top piece and the candle stick holder from the Dollar Tree. After removing the labels with some Goo gone type solvent and cleaning the pieces...I glued the top to the bottom with some E6000 glue (you can get at Walmart or any craft store).
 
Then I personalized as a gifts for alot of my family members. This is only one example.
 
I used Expressions Vinyl for the vinyl. The cuts are from DonJuan and Cutting Up cricut carts. The ribbon is My Craft Spot.
 
These turned out beautifully. Thanks for stopping by.

I've been super busy making cards and projects for custom orders. Sorry I haven't been posting much. Blog kinda gets neglected at holidays, huh?
