Cute lil' Silver Glitter Heart Wall Decor
I used a small wooden trinket box (found at most local craft stores for $1) and a small wooden heart (also found in the same section) First I painted the top of the box pink. You could use any color you prefer. Then I used Mod Podge and sprinkled glitter on my desired areas, in this case the sides of the box top and the heart itself. Although it appears to have dried within an hour, let it set overnight.

Pink Rhinestone Light Switch


I told you I would make one! It came out FAB!!! I ended up having to take four rhinestones out from the top and bottom to make room for the screws. In order to keep it pretty I added some Glitter- If I had small Rhinestones I would have used those. I did not paint the inside piece (where there usually is an on and off switch- I have a motion detector in my living room b/c it gets pretty dark when I arrive alone at home- yeh Im a lil Scaredy Kat at times) So I left that piece without painting or anything because I did not want to remove it or ruin it- Maybe on day I'll get the courage to paint it silver or something. Speaking of Silver isn't my silver wall the cutest! When I finish the living room decor I'll take some neat pics of it and post them up. All done with Mod Podge, paper and sprinkles of creativity- and glitter-
Decoupaged Light Switch !!
I decoupaged 2 of my light switches today- and I havent stopped staring at how AMAZING they came out. I got the idea at ModgePodgeRocks.Blogspot.com (I Reeeeeally Love that Blog!!!) My first attempt wasn't perfection (but what art is?)...At first I was a little discouraged- until I looked across my desktop and saw my Rhinestones!!!! Diiing- IDEA!

(I borrowed a camera so my pics are better quality today.) This is my Rhinestone Blue Leopard Print Light Switch. I was SO excited about it and couldn't wait to share- I didn't even wait for it to dry! (You can see the wet glue in between the Rhinestones- in the middle.

See the air bubbles? Oh Well- Art Isn't perfect- and I still ADORE it- makes me feel like a true Diva to have this light switch in my bedroom. I wish I had two light switches in there to deck a whole one out in Rhinestones (might save that for my living room...hhmmm) I also used some Glitter Mod Podge on it- couldn't go without my Glitter!

This one is in my Art Room/Studio. I need to use up every space in my (tiny Brooklyn) apartment- which is why you see my shades on the wall here. Cute Storage idea though, right? Its a wire thingamajig from Ikea. It's in the frame aisle if you go looking for one. (Half the stash of my bags/purses are under the shades there- just pain ole storage bins until I can find something better)

My Art Room/Studio is also where I store my scarves (even tho this isn't even half of them!) I used a Hot Pink Houndstooth Scrap paper for this light switch. I smile every time I walk by it.

Some Random Wall Decor

I made the flower with felt and used fabric paint to decorate the edges and adhere the button....i actually made a mistake with the button so I covered the edge of the button with yellow fabric paint...good looking mistake if you ask me lol.
After painting this piece I adhered some letter stickers and spread glue over the whole left side...I then sprinkled glitter over the glue and removed the letter sickers after 10 minutes or so (before the glue dried completely)
This has to be my favorite piece I have ever made...I used a canvas for this, painted it pink and used elmers glue to make the heart....I put glitter on top of the glue and voila! Fab-U-losity!!! lol
