Wreck This Journal

Last year I started a project called 'Wreck This Box' by Keri Smith. It's a collection of art journals that makes you experiment, explore and extend your imagination with a series of tasks that you need to complete.


I finished 'Wreck this journal' last year in August,  'Mess' will be finished in a couple of weeks and I'm currently working on 'This is not a book' and 'The pocket scavenger' but more slowly, as well as in other journals that I will talk about in future posts.

Since then I've been posting daily pictures of the progress on Instagram and weekly videos on my Youtube channel. But I noticed that some of you ask me the same questions and often my answers get lost on the comments... So I thought It could be useful to post a detailed description of every page here, how I did it and what did I used.

How to make a Candle holder

Hello! I wanted to share with you how to recycle a bottle and make a candle holder.

What will you need?

• Bottle
• Picture or paper and a printer
• Sealer
• Sand or salt and paint
• Candle
• Ribbon
• Thread
• Key or whatever you want to put inside

1 Step: Drink the bottle you want to use ;)

2. Clean the bottle the best you can and get rid of all the sticky paper.

3. If you have sand, skip this step.
    Put some salt and paint in a bowl and mix it until you have the colour you like.

4. Print a picture!

5. Use the sealer to glue it to the bottle.

6. Print an old looking letter and burn the edges. But don't burn the house!

7. Put all the stuff you want inside! I rolled the letter and closed it with ribbon, I also put some fishnet and hanged a key inside. And I let a few candles to melt.

8. I added a ribbon to the top of the bottle too.

I hope you like it! Share your own version! More post soon!

Projects I'm currently doing

Hello! In this post I'm going to show you the projects I'm currently doing:

1. This is a cat food box that I cut in half , glue some pages of a dictionary and I paint it with watercolours to give it an old look.

2. This is a family portrait, I'm using acrylic paint and a piece of wood.

3. I'm decorating a shelf to be "more like me" and not so boring... I'm using acrylic paint as always.
