New little set and step by step.

Here is my newest creation:
A cute little set with a photo frame, a little treasure box and a coordinate switch plate in a beautiful colour combo:



Here is how to transform some decorative items into pretty little details:
Here are a few items I wanted to decorate to make a little set: A picture frame (with chipboard flowers for the embellishments), a little box (and then I added a switch plate)


First you need to prepare your items by painting them in white (it helps to get a brighter colour of your napkin); Then cut all the pieces you'll need in your paper (once again paper napkins are my favorite!)


When the paint is dry (you might need to apply 2 layers), you can modpodge everything!:

At this point I thought of adding a mat to my frame and I wanted it assorted, so I chose to decoupage it with the brown swirls; I don't like to modpodge on cardstock, so I used heat-n-bond to apply my napkin on it:

A little journey under my iron, a few layers of varnish and some pearl embellishments and voila!:
