Christmas Eve

Well I managed to accomplish a few new things today. I gave the coasters to my family for gifts, They loved them and encouraged me to sell some on Etsy. I guess I should try. Anyway, here is what I did today and yesterday...
This is the 3D branch art I started. The holidays caught up with me and I will finish when I get back from out of town. I used the Martha Stewart paint chips from Home Depot to use as the leaves. I also used them to make gift tags for my coaster gifts! See the pink gift tag below!


I saw an awesome display using old tickets and concert stubs so i decided to do the same. I had saved every ticket to every movie I have ever been to! Crazy I know. But, unfortunately some of them were so old, you couldn't read them anymore and some got destroyed in the process. My concoction did not turn out as pretty as it was in the picture because I had way too many movie tickets and not enough concert/game stubs and I used mutliple 8x10 frames instead of a big 16x24. But here it is in progress.


Here is that glue/sealer that I have been using instead of Mod Podge..



Here are the final pictures of my University of Tennessee Coasters. I may make different college and pro team set and sell them. Let me know if you want some!













I just got sick of stuffing random socks in a drawer that didnt have a pair so instead of making that cute lost sock display I saw on Pinterest, with clothespins, i just painted on old shoebox:
