DIY Large Angel Wings

I made these large angel wings by first drawing a wing with its feathers on large newsprint paper.  I then traced onto wood (some old paneling that I had) and cut out with a jig saw. 

I then, from my drawing, cut out one layer at a time of the wings to use as a stencil and using a putty knife applied putty or drywall mud.  You can see my layers of putty on the photo. 

 When that dried I painted the wings black.  I then lightly painted white with a downward stroke to leave the details of the putty feathers. The bottom feathers I used a screwdriver to scrape lines in the white paint exposing the black underneath.  I love how they turned out.  It was also super easy.

Bath Bombs

I made these bath bombs with friends using the recipe from here.  We used Easter eggs and silicone molds to shape them.  They are amazing in a bath.

Magnets

I found these great little flowers on etsy and glued them to strong magnets using E6000

Mail Sorter in Decoupage

Decoupage

I am loving decoupage.  I started by painting my items grey then added a second coat of white paint.  After it all dried I did decoupage. 

My directions for decoupage are to cut out your image close to the edge but not necessary to cut right on the edge of your image. 

Glue the image on upside down on your item with Mod Podge.  Be sure to remove any bubbles.

When it had dried a few hours run water over your image until the image shows through.  Rub with your finger over the paper rubbing off the paper but leaving the image to your item.

  When dried after about 10 minutes paint a layer of ModPodge over your image and let dry.  I love this.  My images came from Graphics Fairy.
