I feel so honored to have been chosen to participate in the Me and My Peeps Blog Hop! While a few sponsors helped support this blog hop, two ladies, my friend Laura Kelly and a fellow blogger Niki Meiners from 365 Days of Crafts were gracious enough to put this blog hop together.
So, a package arrived with lots of goodies…..a great selection of Me and My Peeps Decals, brightly colored ribbon and some buttons!!
Me and My Peeps Little Boy Frames
For my project, I made these awesome frames that were created for each of my boys!!
Materials used:
2 Me and My Peeps Little Boy Decals from Plaid Enterprises, available at A.C. Moore
Wooden frames, purchased at JoAnn’s Store
Wooden letters, purchased at JoAnn’s Store
Burlap
Laura Kelly Mix of Buttons from Buttons Galore & More
Hot Glue Gun and Glue
What I did:
1. I took the glass out of the frames and then spray painted the frames with Krylon spray paint. I also spray painted the wooden letters.
While doing my spray painting, I realized that I need a little more practice on spray painting! I got some bubbles in the paint. But oh well, I made it work!
2. I covered the letters with the awesome Laura Kelly Mix of buttons using hot glue.
3. I then transferred the Peep decal onto a blue piece of card stock that was very similar to the spray paint and then cut them out.
4. I cut some pieces of burlap and attached them to the frames with hot glue. I then attached the button covered letters and the Little Boy Peeps to the frames using hot glue!
After a critique from a friend, in the end, I ended up adding burlap to all four sides. And this is how it turned out!!!
I love these frames and they are currently sitting in my family room!
