Better look at my Hello Kitty Decoupage Project!

A few blogs ago, I showed you my first Decoupaged project. Well I FINALLY bought a new camera and here is a better showcasing of my Hello Kitty. I used Mod Podge- the Matte (yellow bottle) to adhere the strips and when it dried I used Sparkle Mod Podge (Pink Bottle) to Glitz it up!

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.

Hello Kitty Decoupaged!!!!

My camera was the unfortunate victim of a final lesson I needed to learn! So please excuse the quality of these pics- Im making lemonade out of oranges. :-)

I did my first Decoupage project today. I used Mod Podge. (I must admit I have fallen in LOVE with it- Im hunting around my house for what I could decoupage next!) I woke up on the Glitter side of the bed- and did this eeeearly in the morning. It is a very messy project. My nails still have glue on them (4 hours later) The finished product has some wrinkles in it- which I haven't quite figured out if they are mistakes or not- what I have decided is that I LOVE it the way it is.




This is the Hello Kitty Bank originally. My mom bought it for me at a flea market (she knew I had one already at home and thought it would make a great addition to my collection) I liked it when I first got it- but I wasn't thrilled with the colors and the paint job was quite poor on it.



This is the finished product!!



You cant tell from the picture- I know sorry!!!- but I used Glitter Mod Podge to give it that last umph! it needed. Isn't the cutest thing???



I took a pic of the other Hello Kitty Bank I had- just to share! I loooove how she winks! lol
