10 Charming Chair Makeovers

July 31, 2013 By Meegan 6 Comments

I have had so much fun looking at chair makeovers recently. I am loving all of the colors, textures and creativity! It all inspires me and gets my creative juices flowing. I just love these 10 charming chair makeovers. I am sure you will, too.

One trend I noticed was yellow. Lots and lots of yellow out there. Not to mention the ever popular shades of blue.

Chairs are an easy makeover, whether it’s for the living room, dining room, or garden. They are fun to work with and let your creativity fly! You can just paint the legs, paint the fabric, or use paint on the whole chair even if it is fabric! You could recover with a bold print, make a slipcover, add a pillow or throw for an accent piece.

Are you ready to get this show on the road? Are you ready to get your creative juices flowing?? Well, let’s go see 10 charming chair makeovers…

DIY Glitter Phone Cover

July 2, 2013 By Meegan 3 Comments

I am always looking for a fun phone case. Something a little different than everyone else. So, I made my own DIY glitter phone case. And, it is SO VERY EASY!! I mean, easy peasy!

I made mine while I was in Oregon and neglected to take pictures of the process, so I have recreated my steps here at home. Enjoy…

You can use any type of phone case. The softer cases work the best.

I cleaned my case off with a disinfectant wipe the get all the dirt & residue off. This way the glitter will adhere better.

You will need mod podge, glitter, and a brush. (I made my own mod podge-1/3 water/2/3 Elmer’s Glue)

Make a mixture of 1/2 mod podge and 1/2 glitter.

Begin with one layer of this mixture. Let it almost dry. Do this process 2 more times.

Your 3rd layer will look like this when wet. As you brush the glitter on, make sure the glitter isn’t clumped and piled. Try to make it as smooth as possible.

Let it dry until it isn’t sticky to the touch.

When it’s completely dry you will have a beautiful, glitter phone cover in no time at all!!

Questions:

1. Is it sticky after it dries? No, it is very smooth.

2. Does the glitter fall or peel off? Occasionally, I will see a spec of glitter on my screen. But, that’s all. It will peel if you peel it off, but it is adhered solidly.

3. Can I ever take it off? Of course. Using a very wet paper towel moisten the glitter and mod podge. It will gradually be loose enough to scrape and peel off.

I hope you have enjoyed this simple idea for a DIY Glitter Phone Case. It was a fun project for me for sure!! What color are you going to choose for your DIY Glitter Phone Case?
