Picture Frames

I love decorating picture frames! It adds a little extra flare to some otherwise dull frames. I ALWAYS get them cheap, whether on a Goodwill Hunting adventure, a yard sale, or hand-me-downs. 

Here is just ONE simple idea to easily transform a plain frame. 

For this make-over, I used some decorative stones (usually used to fill a vase or fish bowl type thing) 

some handy dandy tacky craft glue

some times I glue in a pattern...sometimes I just randomly put em on there...

your design...your rules

add some shells if thats your thing...

Be sure to let the glue dry before setting up right...

Xmas Ornaments

Decorating ornaments is easy!! Here are two we are decorating to raise money for charity at our 3rd annual Tone Deaf Caroling event. Vote for your favorite in the comment section. ALSO, simple directions to recreate these beauties below :)

What you need to make your own:
 Ornaments: I bought these two ginormous balls at The Dollar Store
Glue: Elmers for drawing your design.
Glitter:  Whatever colors tickle your fancy. Sprinkle on the glue.
Some sort of ring for holding your ornament steady. We used rubber bracelets. 
Paper: Work on the piece of paper so you can easily dump the glitter back into its container when you are finished
