Old window turned night light
I found an old window I wanted to paint and make into a night light for my bedroom.

• 

This is the before picture, very dirty, one pane was broken so I ended up removing it and gluing in a piece of heavy clear plastic I had

• 

I did sand the wood on the window pane with a fine sand paper and wiped it down well with a damp rag and sealed with one coat of water based poly. This picture shows a stain press I did using unicorn spit. ( done on the back side of the glass) I wiped it down with alcohol first then spread a light coat of mod podge over the glass, after that dried I squirted some unicorn spit, I used a red on the bottom area then purple, blue, zia teal and a little white. I did go lighter as I neared the top. Then I sprayed just a little misting of water over the glass and unicorn spit, placed some clear plastic over it, sprayed that with a light spray of water then used my fingers to move the colors around and to blend them a little too until I got what I liked then pulled one corner up and just continued all the way across. After it was dry I sprayed it with a oil based sealer to set it so it wouldn't rub off or reactivate.

• 

Hubby placed small 1"X 2" square blocks of wood on the back side corners to keep the frame away from the wall and here I placed LED lights all around the edges using regular tacks to hold the wires in place. You could use staples but be very careful not to puncture the wires no matter what you use. I also used picture hanging wire on the back so we could hang it on the wall and it would be sturdy, using the eye hooks that came with it and I used 2 hooks on the wall so it would be more stable and not move or fall.

• 

First of all I cleaned the glass with alcohol then coated with mod podge before painting. (This is the front of the glass) This shows where I drew a tree silhouette along with a hill, some silhouette horses, the other side I made a black painted hill. The, printed a white horse and carefully cut it out, mod podged it onto the glass so the back legs were resting on the black hill. I did seal the front and all the mod podge with a clear water based polyurethane

• 

Here the frame kind of blends in with my bedroom wall but I have the lights turned on and you can see how it lights up the picture, although it isn't perfect, it does make a nice night light and I am putting a timer on it so it will shut off and come on at specific times of the day

Materials used for this project:

• Unicorn spit
• Acrylic black paint
• Mod podge
• Rustoleum clear spray
• Water based polyurethane
• 120 grit sand paper
• Picture hanging wire

A Side Table for My Night Stand

I wanted a night stand with drawers that was a bit taller since my bed is high and I wanted it pretty

Time: 5 Days Cost: $45 Difficulty: Advanced

• 

I found this little side table at the thrift store and knew it would work almost perfect, the veneer was damaged so I knew I had to paint it

• 

This is the stand after using citristip and sanding it to be ready for painting, I couldn't sand too much since the veneer is thin

• 

I found an image online that I loved and resized it using paint to fit on the top of the table and then traced it onto the table. I put a very thin layer of primer on the table before tracing it though sine the wood was kind of dark and I wanted the image to show good and I was afraid the paint wouldn't stick real well. I painted primer on the sides also, then painted them a nice grey laytex.

• 

I painted the horse referring to the image I had using unicorn spit paint/stain and a few acrylics with mainly small brushes, then sprayed it with rustoleum clear

• 

Here I used unicorn spit in red, purple, green and a teal color and blended them to make the drawers colorful, it blends really easily and nice with just a little water and a rag and brush, then sprayed with rustoleum clear

• 

This is the completed top sealed with water based polyurethane, the white circle is just a reflection of the light

• 

This picture is of the drawers with the hardware placed back onto it after I cleaned them with a brillo pad (I had to use a flash light to get a decent picture the corner in the bedroom was too dark)

Drop Leaf Table Get S Real Makeover

I purchased this little drop leaf side table and wanted to make it pretty

Time: 7 Days Cost: $40 Difficulty: Advanced

• 

This is the before picture when I started to sand it, very dark and very plain

• 

This is where I started to paint the bottom using home made chalk paint I then used some dark brown paint to antique it using a chip brush then sanded all the areas I did this on the bottom with fine sand paper to even out the antiquing and to make it very smooth

• 

I used freezer paper and made a piece the exact size of the table then started placing the images I wanted to use on it and taped them in place once I got the placement, then traced them onto the freezer paper so I could easily trace it onto the table

• 

I hand painted all the images using acrylic paints

• 

closeup of humming bird

• 

Flower closeup

• 

Stained and painted top, I used a walnut stain on the top of the table

• 

This is the front of the table showing the antique white, I thought it looked good being a two tone

• 

This is the completed table, I tried to show off the two tone but had a hard time with the picture for some reason

A Couple of Pallets and a Shoe Rack is Born

I live in a very old house and don't have a mud room so I wanted something better than a metal shoe rack so I had the idea to make a wood one out of pallets and hubby did the cutting for me

Time: 5 Hours Cost: $5 Difficulty: Medium

• 

First he cut the nails and boards off the front so we only had the back portion of the pallet, I forgot to take that picture but you can see here that the front of the pallet is missing even though the shelves are already on here. I sanded everything before we started putting them together.

• 

This is the board underneath the shelves to hold them in place, hubby screwed them to the side of the pallet piece so they would project out and under the shelving. These boards are from an old swing we had and we cut them to fit

• 

This is the unit before we took it inside, looks very rustic and we used screws to attach everything (The shelves are pallet boards too) I used a grey stain since some of the boards are grey looking.

• 

This is the completed shelf, I put some baskets on top for things we need at the door
