Bedroom {{Plate}} Decor!

NO WAY' could it be a post NOT RELATING TO HALLOWEEN? HA! I hung some light corally rose colored pink plates in my bedroom.  I love that the plates were exaclty what was needed to fill in the empty spaces.
 BEFORE
 AND AFTER!
  ANOTHER BEFORE
AND AFTER
 TO HANG THE PLATES I used a nice heavy duty ribbon. I hot glued the ribbon and also used Gorilla Super Glue too. I hot glued the ribbon first and then above where I hot glued the ribbon I also used the Gorilla super glue and let dry. WILL SEE.... crossing fingers! I didn't want plate hangers and I didn't want to wait and order those popular plate discs (is that right?) you may of heard of.
THANKS YA'LL for stopping by, hope you are all having a great week.
I am linking up with Fingerprints on the Fridge for Feature yourself Friday HERE.

{EEK}- THE WINNER

HERE IS MY EEK sign I made last year. I love making these for different holidays. I have done "JOY" "USA" "I a heart and U" for Valentines and "EEK" I get the frames like you see below at Walmart. Then I used some cute black and white glittery polka dot paper cut to size. Then I cut out the EEK letters from cardstock from my Lyrical Letters Cartridge for my cricut "Jack Sprat" and glued them on with a glue stick. Super Easy!

 and now EEEEEEEK the winner-
AND THE WINNER OF MY Giveaway is Heather #47 of Butterflygirlms Rambles On. CONGRATS Heather, WOOT WOOT!

{Candy} corn burlap frame

MY {CANDY} CORN burlap FRAME

I whipped this baby up in 20 -30  mins. The frame is from Walmart. I removed the glass and saved it in a closet. I cut burlap to size, and with a wet rub on glue, I glued and smoothed down the burlap. Mod Podge would work too, just let dry.  Next, I laid out my candy corn on the burlap, just how I wanted it. Then one by one glued them on. Lastly I tied a bow and hot glued that in the corner with a pumpkin candy corn.

Now I will admit- I am not thrilled with the Y it's a little kooky... being so tall, it should be smaller.... I had all caps laid out, but already GLUED down the Y first. Then realized there wasn't space for all caps  so the others were lower case letters.... If I tried taking the Y off to start over, it left behind candy corn residue, and I didn't want to start over with  new burlap, to lazy. ;) ANYHOO, here you go- hope you like. I still do- I think its "SWEET"



THANKS to YOU ALL FOR STOPPING BY~ MAKE SURE YOU LINK UP BELOW TO CRAFTOMANIAC MONDAY! have a super day! jen
