Upholstering Day

Getting the house ready for some welcome guests.

Me and Patti have had 3 days of girlfriend fun. Including upholstery!

Dr. Patti also known as Patti Paint says I really needed a home makeover.

On projects like this, she's the boss and always gets the job done. Just ask her sister Dee. 

How do I say thank you. Lots of hugs, dried apples and Bistro soups.

She's a good girl. I think I'll keep her.

   

Oh yes, she also picked the paint color

Sparkling Rhinestone Recycled Flour Jar

Make a Sparkling Green Kitchen Project

Thanks for visiting my blog today

Re-use, re-claim and sparkle! I love to reclaim my bottles and jars. I find so many ways to use them. One of my favorite ways is to turn them into beautiful vintage inspired kitchen canisters. I made this one out of a reclaimed spaghetti jar, a re-purposed stretchy rhinestone bracelet and a simple label that I made on my computer.

Here is how I made it:

• Clean your jar

• Prime and paint top lid in color of your choice. I picked a creamy white

• Print out your label sheet using sticker papers

• Cut out just the word Flour in an oval shape and cover with contact paper. Leave a little extra contact paper around the edges so you will make a tight seal on your jar.

• Remove paper backing and apply to jar

• Glue your rhinestone bracelet around your label using Glass and Gem Glue. I found my glue at a craft store.

• Let dry over night

• Now your reclaimed jar has a classic, vintage, chic, glamour, gourmet and girly look and feel  

• Add flour of your choice and enjoy!
