How to make a Bracelet Holder


Good evening! This is my new project: a cheap way to store your bracelets!

Materials:

Optional Materials:




1. Using the toilet paper roll, trace onto the paper towel roll with a pencil. If the toilet paper roll is too wide, squish it into an oval shape so it fits nicely.



2. Cut out the oval, be sure that fits. And glue them together. 






3. Paint a base coat.


4. Paint details. (This step is optional) I made an stencil using photoshop, but you could print an image or paint it freehand. Cut your stencil and paint carefuly, it's best if you put masking tape on the sides. And use a sealer for better result.




5. Draw two circles on fabric, cut and glue them on the sides.




6. Add ribbon to cover the glue and Cut 2 pieces of fabric to make a bow, glue to the holder and... done!

Teddy Bear painting



Hello! Today I wanted to share with you my water colour Teddy Bear painting.
I know it's not a painting that you could hang on a museum... but I try...

The idea was to represent a two faced society, where everything "strange" or different is not necessary evil and maybe you have to beware of the common people.

Well, I hope you like it! And share your own paintings, tips, techniques... in the comments below

How to make a Necklace holder


Hello! I had been trying to figure out a good way to hold my necklaces and I came up with this... So today I'm going to share with you my version of a Necklace Holder:




1. Put tape on the foam to paint straight lines.
(It doesn't really matter what size or shape it is, that's totally up to you!).


2. Paint two coats of acrylic paint, let dry and remove the tape.


3. Draw and cut a coffin on the cork.

4. Cut the fabric a bit larger than the cork-coffin, enough to be able to fold it over on each side and glue them.


5. Glue the coffin to the foam board. Hot gluing... don't burn yourself!

6. Finally add the thumb tacks and necklaces!
