  • I made my sunflowers about 20" to decorate for a party.
  • After you cut out your petals, crinkle the paper into a ball, then unroll and staple.
  • Spray paint... I love spray paint.

How to Make Paper Flowers

I just finished making these sunflowers out of brown paper! They were so easy and are going to be used as party decorations. But these would be beautiful in a little girl's room also! Check out my link below for a detailed tutorial. Thanks.

From Old Drawer to End Table...

A few old drawers, some yardsticks, left over bead board pieces and a husband who welds...all added up to a few fun "new" end tables with a "perfectly imperfect" look that suits my style :)

Create a Custom Indoor Herb Garden Design from Mason Jars

Wouldn't it be fantastic to have a custom indoor herb garden you could hang on your kitchen wall? ...»

This comes in handy when you don't have a ton of counter space. Plus, who doesn't like a pizza with fresh basil and mozzarella (I'm hoping some of you do!!).

This project was inspired by a blog post over at Camille Styles. I modified it a bit (with their permission) by creating an oil rubbed bronze & copper effect on a wood board.

This artistic touch could come in handy for any number of projects. It's a simple & inexpensive technique that you can do yourself.

You can then mount mason jars to the board with stainless steel clamps. This allows the jars to be removed and cleaned if you'd like to add different herbs over time. Way cool!!

So you get fresh herbs and a conversation piece that begs for bragging rights.

Here are some pics of the project for inspiration.

In case you're interested I put together a complete tutorial on how to do this. Here's the link http://www.homerepairtutor.com/custom-indoor...

P.S. Feel free to Pin this project onto Pinterest because other DIYers might like to try it ;)

happened. We pulled the boards off of one side of each pallet and stacked them so the openings were bigger. I sanded and sanded and sanded forever then 2 coats of polyurethane to bring out the rustic color. I sold it to a family who are using it in their playroom!
