Chic Damask Magnetic Memo Board, Dollar Tree Crafting

Hey ladies, well I've been rummaging around the the Dollar Tree again, and yes I had to sneak in three bag of stuff!  I found the cutest little silver colored metal trays there that look like little fancy serving trays.  They aren't large, the oval tray which I used in this tutorial measures 12" x 8 1/2".

Supplies you will need:
Metal Tray
Scrapbook paper
Buttons, vintage jewelry - or what ever you wish to create the magnets
Magnets
Glue - Elmers and E-6000
Mod Podge
Coordinating Ribbon

This little memo board is so... crazy easy.  In order o coordinate with my new little craft space I chose this black & white damask print Scrapbook Paper, which I bought for 1/2 price at Hobby Lobby.  First you will need to cut your paper to fit into the flat part of the tray, once this is cute glue down with Elmers.  I let mine dry for a day and then covered with Mod Podge.

For the shabby chic magnets I used pieces of vintage jewelry, a velvet ribbon rose and buttons that I had on hand.  All I had to do was glue a magnet to each one using the E-6000!

Once your little tray is dry, turn over and glue your ribbon to the back (I used E-6000 for this part), tie and big pretty bow and it/s ready to hang!  I used a Shabby Chic
1 1/2" satin ribbon that I already had on hand.

Have A Happy Week and Happy Crafting!

Etsy Love - Have a Glittery Halloween

Ok, so as you've noticed I love Halloween and all the decorations.  I also adore, and not just a little bit, glitter !  I would glitter my cat is she would sit still long enough, lol.


So this morning I've been shopping and hearting all kinds of wonderful glittered Halloween decor and more on Etsy.  Here are a few of my favorite finds today!


Icing on the Cake Studio, has the most adorable boxes covered in glitter.  Here's her precious Halloween Cupcake Box covered in vintage type papers and trim and complete with a black rose.

Jennifer Arndt creates the most wonderful little houses and other holiday treasures using vintage treasures.  I'm thinking that this adorable little glittered Halloween house would be perfect on my mantle, the detail in this piece is so fun with the owl, black cat & crow.

This fun artist, Sleepy Hollow Folk Art is a fellow Texan ya'll !  She is a wonderful mixed media artist, with wonderfully whimsical sculptures. Her Shabby Shriek Jack O'Lantern Wand is so fun, it's prim and glam all at the same time!

Canadian artist Avant Carde creates exquisite vintage inspired paper and fabric collage creations.  Her Decorative Witch Hat is over the top fun with layers of lace, vintage ephemera, ribbons, roses and of course glitter!
