 Hello everyone! How are you all doing? I hope you are doing well. If you're anything like me, I have a few glass jars that I have washed and set aside, waiting for the perfect opportunity to use them in a craft. Today I am going to share a simple upcycled project with you. We're decorating a glass jar and adding paint, Mod Podge, and floral embellishments. Video tutorial Materials One glass jar- I am reusing a pickle jar Floral embellishments- I am using the paper craft flowers Mod podge Acrylic paint- I am using Waverly no prep Matte finish Scissors Paintbrushes Optional-Twine Applying paint to the glass jar Begin by taking your paintbrush and applying a thin layer of your paint to your jar.

 Hi everyone.  How have you all been? It has been hot out! So we're just trying to stay cool. Are you working on any new projects?  I recently decided to give the block calendar from Dollar Tree a completely new look.  I wanted to share this very simple redo with all of you.  We'll be working with Mod Podge, paint, and greenery.  Video tutorial Materials One block calendar Mod Podge Decorative paper bag or napkin Scissors Paintbrush Acrylic paint Faux Greenery/foliage Pen or pencil for tracing Start by taking your paper bag or napkin, and use your pen to trace the shape of your calendar.

After, take your scissors and cut ...

 Hi everyone!  How have you all been? I took last week off from doing any DIY projects.  It was excellent. I was able to spend some much-needed quality time with my family.  We spent a lot of time outdoors.  We are still repairing our window well, so there were many trips to pick up materials.   While at my local Lowe's store, I found these $2 Terra Cotta pots. I picked up two and also two terra cotta saucers.  I wanted to create a decoration that could be displayed in the home or garden/patio. You will need just a few materials, and there will be a few that are optional.
