Downton Abbey DIY
Ring Carson for tea and welcome back this wildly popular series with whimsical DIY projects to bring a Downton to your everyday. Greet the "modern" age with an old style gramophone fashioned from a cardboard box and iPhone speaker, add some fashion flair with an easy necklace and set the table for a dowager worthy dessert.
Set the stage for after dinner dancing
download some turn of the century tunes and plug in your smartphone
an old plastic lid gets a coat of black paint and a vintage label printed from online
a cardboard box, faux wood shelf paper and odds and ends
cut opening for speaker
create speaker shape
paint, paper and glue
No heirloom jewels to wear to dinner, not to worry- cap lace and craft supplies make an Edwardian inspired choker
an Abbey printout makes a fun cameo- Tea is served
