Decoupage on Tin

Hello Everyone!!!
One more upcycled old cookie tin with tissue and image transfer....








Decoupage on a Cookie Tin

Step by Step instruction to upcycle an old cookie tin.
First I cleaned the outer surface with soap and water .Then scrubbed the entire box with sandpaper so that the paint will adhere easily.




With the masking tape covered the edges.


I used spray paint on the box (2 coats).
Printed the images from Graphic fairy on yellow copy paper.With Mod podge stuck the paper on the tin and let it dry for 3 hrs.Once it was completely dry used a wet cloth to remove the top layer of paper.


Cutout the images from the tissue and adhere it to the tin.



Once everything was dry added glitter to it.


At last I applied  2 coats Flat lacquer to seal the entire surface.

After a long time I did a candle....melted the wax and added my favorite perfume to it. Poured the wax into a 3"tall glass and let it to cool down for couple hours. I got these paper napkins from thecraftshop.in . I just took a part of the paper.....applied mod podge on the glass and stuck the tissue. I outlined the image with black permanent marker.Once it dried gave it 2 coats of Sparkle Mod Podge. To finish it off added the rhinestones to the top and bottom edge.

Altered Vintage Pot

Another altered project.......This is a terracotta pot so I added a layer of white gesso to it before painting. Stuck the vintage picture with Mod Podge. Sponged the peach pearl paint all over the pot and the lid. For the top and bottom trim added a touch gold paint. Added the lace and the golden rope to the picture. 


Roses were made with Heartfelt Botanical Rose Stamp and die set.



 With 3D white paint added few swirls and dots to the fill the empty space.

Golden Altered Bottle

Another Altered Bottle!!!!! 
This one took me on a roller coaster ride.....I redid the bottle 3 times to get the right look.



First I applied a coat of Tile and Glass medium on the bottle. Once it dried added a layer of texture paint with the sponge. Applied 2 coats of Gold paint.



Stuck the picture with Mod Podge. Once everything is dry, added the lace around the picture. Rose made with Spellbinders die. Added pearls, gold twine and ribbon to the bottle.



For the bottle topper.....a acrylic flower from my stash, a gold thread foam bead and a pearl.

Altered Bottle

Idea for this altered bottle started at the 
crafters meet in Bangalore. After having loads of fun we decide a topic for the 
next swap,this time we went with Altered Bottle.
Since this is my first attempt at altered bottle 
I went with the easiest technique 
that's wrapping the bottle with twine.
Used hot glue to stick the twine.
After wrapping the bottle added a Jute 
flower made with Spellbinder die on top of the bow. 
At last I swirl wrapped a lighter 
color twine around the bottle.  
VIOLA!!! Bottle ready.
