  • using a clean glass jar, apply removable adhesive labels of your choice (i used round labels from the office supply store)
  • turn your jar upside down to prevent paint overspray + apply several light coats
  • once dry, gently remove the labels
  • add a layer of glass floral beads or sand. this protects your surface from heat damage from a long-burning candle
  • i love the playfulness of the dotted design 1

  • The space was originally 2 separate rooms-a tiny toilet, shower, single sink and a vanity area.  We removed the wall and 2 closets to make one open space. 3
  • Because this was a total DIY project, we were able to complete a much higher end looking bathroom for $7,000. 1
  • These mirrors (from Lowes) and sconces (from Home Depot) were both very affordable options and I love the look they create in the bathroom. 2
  • The pedestal tub is my favorite addition to the space.

  • Apothecary jars made with spice jars, printable labels and Mod Podge.
  • bathroom storage idea
  • Supplies, including having the labels printed were about $7.00. I already had the Mod Podge on hand.
  • Apply a thin layer of Mod Podge to the back of the label.
  • A spoon helps to smooth out the wrinkles.
  • Another layer of Mod Podge goes on top.
  • This is perfect for storing Q-tips, cotton balls and other bathroom items.

  • DIY Getting My Craft On!
  • Woodworker's tool and chalk painted wood- be sure to have a toner based copy and reverse the image if needed. There is a link, to order this tool, at the top of my blog.
  • Yephee! It worked on wood (top) and fabric
  • A vintage tool box has been chalk painted and a French graphic, from The Graphic's Fairy, added with the woodworker's transfer tool.
  • The tool is rounded and flat on the bottom. Iron, with firm pressure, back and forth. As the graphic transfers you will notice it sticks to the wood. Careful this tool get hot!  Peek to see where you need to retouch-

  • The new paint application gives these old tired tables an upscale look.
  • To update the look even more, I added scrapbook paper under the glass to disguise the dingy-looking wood.

Give Furniture a New Look With Paint

We had some tired stacking tables in mahogany that were in desperate need of a reinvention. I did it with Annie Sloan paint and Briwax. It didn't take long at all. http://the2seasons.com/2013/05/08/i-painted-...
