Girlie picture frames

This weekend I decided to work on these picture frames that were laying around in the basement; I really didn't want to spend any $ so I dug out some fun paper and forgotten pop up stickers, grabbed some paint and went with it! I REALLY enjoyed making these! They will look quite adorable hanging in Bella's room! Check it out:) 
The basic process was to put a coat of paint on a wooden frame, and then play a little with textures to give the project a rich base. I picked out papers to compliment paint colors and decoupaged it onto the frame with some Mod-Podge 
I then added some pop-up stickers, but as a suggestion, i would do that before using the mod podge
since the stickers did not stick on so well the first time I tried these.
Final touches were made by adding some self-stick gems
and that's all!

Hair stuff for my Bella Boo!

OH my GOSH! I have craft fever!!!! SERIOUS CASE! So excited about making stuff this summer I don't even know where to start:) What a great problem to have huh? I am pretty sure I will be working on some fine art stuff as well (more on this later), but right now I am working on making hair accessories for my beautiful daughter! I had a post about the same thing last year during Halloween but I like these new ones much better!

















Thanks for reading!
