Christmas Leftovers

Srečno novo leto drage moje!
Ravno pravšnji čas za nove začetke in za nov izziv na Our Creative Corner ...Pamellia je gostiteljica mesečnega izziva in želi videti, kaj boste naredile z

"Božičnimi Ostanki"

Reciklirajte svoje Božične Ostanke. Darilni papir, prazne role od darilnega papirja, darilne vrečke ali škatle, "tissue" papir, trakove,...

Za samo kreacijo ne rabite uporabiti božično tematiko, mora pa biti božičen, izdelek, ki ga boste uporabile pri kreaciji.

....ali ni to čudovita tema za januarski izziv!?
Tole sem naredila jaz....
------------------------------------------

Happy New year my Dear friends! 
This is the perfect time for new beginnings and perfect time for a new challenge at Our Creative Corner...Pamellia is the host of this month challenge and she want to see what you will make with

"Christmas Leftovers"

Recycle your Christmas garbage. Gift wrap, empty gift wrap rolls, gift bags, gift boxes, tissue paper, ribbon...etc.

The project itself doesn't have to have a Christmas theme, just the items to use to make it.

....isn’t this just perfect theme for January challenge!? 
Here is my make....

...za darilo sem dobila bombone, ki so bili v tej prelepi embalaži....bomboni so bili super, ampak mislim, da sem se bolj razveselila pločevinke :) .... ideje, kako jo uporabiti so takoj prišle na dan in odločila sem se, da napravim dekoracijo za Valentinovo.....
-----------------------------------------

...I got a bunch of candies in this beautiful tin, which I thought is perfect to alter...and I decide to make a Valentine's Day decoration....

Tule je ustvarjalni postopek:

Vzela sem eno polovico pločevinke (tisto z ravnim dnom) in jo zdrgnila z brusnim papirjem, da se je kasneje barva dobro prijela. Zunanjost sem pobarvala, najprej s črno, nato pa še z belo akrilno barvo. Na zgornji rob pločevinke sem nalepila vrv. Timov Metal Word Band sem pobarvala s Picket Fence Distress Stain in ga nalepila na pločevinko...

Notranjost pločevinke sem zapolnila z gobo za ikebane...najbolje jo je kar zalepiti, da ostane vse stabilno in na mestu....

Iz 3 mm debele lesene plošče sem, z ročno žago, izrezala srce. Ko sem zbrusila robove, sem ga pobarvala, najprej s črno, nato pa še z belo akrilno barvo. Kot ponavadi sem morala narediti še nekaj prask, da sem dobila bolj starinski videz.....

Lesno špino sem pobarvala na belo in okoli nje navila žico. Z vročim lepilom sem dodala srce in okrasni trak. Špino sem porinila v gobo za ikebane in vse prekrila z mahom.....

....in gotovo...super enostaven in lep okras....

---------------------------------

Here is my creative process:

I took one half of a tin (I choose the one with flat bottom) and I rub a surface with sandpaper, so the paint "stuck" well. Outside of the tin is painted, first with black and then, with white acrylic paint. Then I took a rope and glued it around the top of the tin....I smeared Tim`s Metal Word Band with Picket Fence Distress Stain and attached it to the tin with hot glue....

Inside of the tin is filled with ikebana sponge (sorry, I don’t know if this is the right English word...probably not, but I meant the green sponge which is used for flower arrangement)...it’s the best to glue it, to make the whole piece more stable....

I took a 3 mm thick wooden piece and using hand saw I cut a heart. I rub the edges with sandpaper and painted it, first with black and then, with white acrylic paint. As always I had to make some scratches, to rich a vintage look....

I used wooden stick and painted it on white. I wrapped wire around it and with hot glue attached the heart on one end...I also added some crinkle ribbon, to make the whole thing more interesting and dimensional....I pushed the stick in the sponge and cover everything with moss...

....and it’s done....easy, peasy, beautiful home decor...
