  • Get creative with your recyclables!!!
  • Purchase some inexpensive figures and mini trees found at most craft stores and even the dollar store. 1
  • fill the base of the lid with white glue and let set a few minutes until it becomes thick and tacky.
  • also place some glue on the bottom of the tree, giving it a little twist as you push down to remove any air bubbles.
  • Do the same thing with the base of your animals or any other small trinkets you would like to place inside the jar.
  • Test the opening that you have the items positioned so the jar lip will clear and you can get eh lid back on the jar.
  • add another layer of glue and add faux snow and sparkly glitter to the inside of the base. Let the jar sit out a few days so the glue dries and moisture doesn't get caught in the jar when you put the lid back on.
  • once dry, screw the lid back on and give it a slight tilt so some of the glitter and fine snow particles coat the inside a bit.
  • Use different sized jars for a different effect, or cluster them for the full impact. You can enjoy your new decor, or give as teacher or neighbor gifts! 1

blank bathroom wall now looks through columns to beach

We were brought in to this Vero Beach residence to create an ocean view in a nice, but bare bathroom. The arches & columns are painted on a flat wall. The client wanted cochina stone surrounding the tub - so that was painted on, with small plants breaking through the faux cracks. Also there was a wall niche that we added trompe l'oeil pot & window in (the inset pic). We can do projects like this in our studio, on canvas panels, and ship to clients to be put up simply like wallpaper! It's our 29th anniversary so now I'm outta here!! JRH
