Valentine's Day special - Craft on Canvas/Upcycled spoiled art project ;)

Well I am not a good painter , but still love playing with the colour. Few project turn out well and few are disastrous. I usually go way too far that i can no more improvise the painting. that wat happened with the painting I am going to post about today.I could not tolerate to see the painting lying in my cupboard, so decided to upcycle it.  Here is what i did.
Painted the canvas with black paint.

Covered the Canvas with patterned Paper  and Decorated it. Here's how it looks now.




I hope you liked. Thanks for visiting my blog. Click here to see the post on the jar in the above pic.

Valentine's Day - Decorated Jar

Here is one more idea of a gift for your special someone. Its very simple, but its inside the jar that is most important. All you need is an empty jar, few embellishments and you are good to go.
You can fill up the jar by writing about all the things that you love about your beloved, I am sure the smile on his face will tell you how much he loved it.
Its a budget gift with a very special touch. He will surely love it.
Here's how my jar turned out. I am going to gift it with few other handmade gifts.




The next post will be about the canvas craft project which you see in the above image. Hope you like it.

Recycled/ upcycled / Altered Glass Bottles

I had few used olive oil glass bottles at home. So thought of trying my hands at painting them with my acrylic paints. Painting on bottle is much different then on canvas. Had to give them multiple coatings to give a finished look. Here is how it looks.


hope you like them.
