DIY

I have so many projects/ crafts I'd like to start! I see so many things on pintrest and facebook. My daughter and I frequently do small projects, we just finished one making headbands out of egg cartons. First I cut the egg cartons into different shaped flowers and then Amelia painted them ,then we used the glue gun to glue the flowers the different color and style ribbons. They came out super cute and where very easy to make! I have recently been researching how to " weather or distress" wood furniture. I have always loved the look of antique wood furniture. I have at the moment my bed taken apart( for 3 weeks now ) thinking I'm gonna get started. It's just so much work, especially to achieve the look I want. First I have to sand all the wood, then a bottom coat of white, then turquois, then black. When all this paint  dries I'll use different scraping tools and possibly the sand paper again to achieve that "distressed " look. All three coats of paint should show through.
