Paint Wooden Kitchen Utensils

Standard

Crafts can be found everywhere in the house.  That is why my idea today is especially dedicated to complement one of the most used places areas of the home, the kitchen. What is my proposal? Well simple: some attractive kitchen utensil decorated with just a bit of acrylic paint.

An excellent suggestion! And best of all it just takes a few minutes you realize it. What more could you want?

Materials:

  • 1 brush
  • Cookware
  • Acrylic Painting
  • Tape

Step by step:

To begin this simple craft, the first thing to do is get a few wooden kitchen utensils to work on, a bit of acrylic paint (choose the color you prefer), and some small pieces of tape.

Tape your line (dividing it into two parts), and prepare a glass of water to wet the brush, and a small container with acrylic paint with the color of your choice.

Start painting the wood carefully, making large strokes without fear.

Just remember to let it dry for an hour or two at least so your work will not be ruined.

Finally, remove the tape.

Place these attractive decorated utensils with acrylic paint as a decor, or of course you can use to cook whatever you like.

Decorating Tips – Update Your Shoes With Rhinestones

Standard

Shoes are women’s best friends. We always want a new pair, the latest model, or a new design that are in the fashion stores, and magazine. However, the economy of our pocket is not always up to spend bucks on a pair of expensive shoes. But no worry! Because we can always resort to recycling , and I promise that the end result of these shoes decorated with rhinestone is fabulous.

You just need to get a recycled shoe to decorate . Ah! A pair of high heels, a few rhinestone and a hot glue gun will finish the job.

Shall we begin?

Materials

  • 1 pair of black heels
  • Rhinestones
  • Hot glue gun

Step by step

Get a pair of high heels possibly black. Why? Well, very simple. The black color shoes are more formal, and further highlighted with rhinestone.

You should take care to get the rhinestone, or rhinestones. These can be obtained at any craft store, and you may find them in different sizes and models. Choose the sizes and designs of your choice.

With hot glue gun put a little glue on the stones and place them on the back of the heels. This effect will cause an unmatched shine as you walk! And finally, you can place a stone in the center of the front of the shoe for a more glamorous look.

It’s now ready to be worn! Remember that the hot glue dries very fast.
