Floral Bookends


Hi lovely people, 
Here is my last post for you this year and I have got you these lovely decoupaged Bookends. What could possibly be the best way to spend you chilly winter days!? I would say pick a book ,a cup of hot chocolate,find a cozy corner at home, relax and read your favorite book! 
So here is my inspiration for you to keep your favorite reads together.
Have you checked out the new decoupage paper designs at Papericious...we have some gorgeous prints for you. And not to forget some amazing new editions to chalk paint colors.
Used the Cyber Grape chalk paint to paint these mdf bookends. I have used a sponge brush to paint as it helps in reducing those brush strokes and gives a smooth paint finish to the surface.
 For one end piece I have also stamped the script image using the Kaisercraft script stamp using some sepia archival ink.Also used papericious soft gloss gel with the stencil for the subtle quote.
Next, fussy cut the flowers image from the Whimsical decouapge paper. 

 For the other end of the bookend I decoupaged the entire piece using the gorgeous Whimsical design from the new collection. These papers come in perfected coordinated designs to complete to your whole project.  


 Here is a close up view..Aren't these bookends pretty!?
Hope you liked these. Do leave some love in the comments. 
And here is wishing all of you Merry Xmas and a Very Happy New Year.
Meet you all again next year with some lovely products and projects till than 
Happy Crafting!!

Decoupaged Glass Bottle


Namaste Everyone!!

This is Kriti today with an inspiration post...
The perfect way to use up your empty bottles is to alter them. Today's post is based on decoupage, which is a simple and effective way to recycle glass bottles and jars and create beautiful, unique decorations for your home and office.

Recently Papericious has launched some new decoupage papers and they can be used to create different gorgeous projects.

This is the project..



I started with a plain glass bottle that had been cleaned inside and out by soaking it in hot water( labels were removed) and then left it to dry. Then I have coated the bottle with two coats of white gesso.

After that I have applied Soft Rock Chalk paint by Papericious with the help of sponge.

Next, selected a beautiful decoupage paper from Whimsical Pack. I had cut some floral motifs. The quality of this paper is awesome, however, I felt it might be a little too firm to mould to the circular shape of my bottle. So, to save myself, I have moisten the backside of the paper with water, let it set a moment and then applied the Papericious Decoupage glue. Then positioned both the motifs and applied decoupage glue with a flat brush.

After that sponged the bottle with Dried Lavender Chalk Paint and embellished it.

Few more pics..





I hope you liked the post..

Hugs !!
