Kitchen Decor

For our first project I have picked a fun and cute one. Here is the finished look.

Now I can't take full credit for this one. I saw this project online and decided to change it a little and make it my own. Here is the list of supplies you will need. Followed by instructions. 
  1. Slice die cutting machine (*Don't have a slice, scroll down for a surprise*)
  2. Bon Appetit design card
  3. Different colors of card stock
  4. Ribbon
  5. 3 Frames (5x7)
  6. Your favorite adhesive

  1. Cut out apple, pepper, and lemon to 3 1/2 inches 
  2. Cut out shadows for apple, pepper, and lemon to 3 1/2 inches 
  3. Use your adhesive to attach each shape to its shadow
  4. Now cut out the words, favorite, kitchen, and ingredients to 3 1/2 inches
  5. Take any paper of your choice and cut it to 5x7
  6. Now attach shape and word to each page
  7. Use your adhesive to attach some ribbon on the bottom
  8. Put glass back on top and your done!
Here are some more pictures, up close.


** Don't own a Slice, but love this idea. Well your in luck. Anyone who doesn't own a slice I would be happy to cut the shapes and words for you, just leave me a comment with your email or email me at renn10ten@comcast.net**

New Blog- New me

I'm pretty sure that the title of this post pretty much explains where this is headed. Let's start with new blog. I have decided that instead of just ranting about what goes on in my life, I will have a blog about one of my passions. Crafts! We all know how much I love working on crafty projects and now you will be able to make them too. I will be posting different projects, daily or weekly, with directions, supplies, and pictures! I hope that this will turn out to be a lot of fun for everyone. Now next part of the title, New me. So much has changed in the past six months and I am happy with everything. I went from being a stay at home wife, to opening my online shop, and now working for the company of my dreams, Vera Bradley. I've learned that you don't need a lot of money or a lot of friends to be happy. You just need a passion and at least one supporter. As for a supporter, Sean has been a blessing to me and my life. He supports me with every decision that I have ever made, and for that I want to thank him! I also want to thank my family for always being there. To me nothing is more important than family.

Alright I'm done with the ranting, now time for some projects!!!
