A couple of weeks ago, our friend Liz from Savvy Seasons by Liz gave us a tutorial on how to make cloches using very economical items from the Dollar Tree.
I had just finished decorating my kitchen for Spring, but something was missing
and this was the perfect project to finish it off.
I have already thanked Liz for sharing this idea and I also let her know I had made some,
which I would be sharing with you all, but all the credit goes to her!
Thanks again, Liz!
I took this idea of spray painting with stone paint a little further and also covered an old glass vase I already had.
I will be sharing the kitchen Spring decor as soon as I can edit my pictures. Working on it.

And here are my cloches!
I followed Liz's directions. First I primed all the pieces.
This is the paint I purchased.
I also used a different glue I already had. Next time I am out, I will pick up the E6000,
but this new superglue worked very well also.
Waiting for the stone paint to dry.
And my little bunnies have a new home this Spring!
Thank you, Liz, for the idea and inspiration.
I will share soon how I incorporated this project into my Spring decor for this year.
Meanwhile, enjoy your day!
Thank you for taking the time to stop by and leave a comment. It means so much to me!

HI THERE...thanks for stopping in to visit my blog. New visitors are always fun. Wow, that project turned out really well. I am extremely useless when it comes to crafting. NO. KIDDING. Love the bunny under it. I will be back to see how you did your spring decor.
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute! That little Liz certainly comes up with some clever ideas -- she has such a fun blog!
ReplyDeleteI found an old Christmas cloche at Salvation Army in November and I've fallen in love with them ever since! I did a great Christmas vignette but I have decided to use it for my easter decorations. I crafted a birds next from Spanish moss and put some little blue eggs in it. I'm in love! Then, I was at a vintage sale a few weeks ago and came across the most beautiful blown glass cloche and grabbed it up for 8 bucks. I put a moss covered bunny under that one on my end table. I can't believe I didn't discover cloches until now. I love the ones you made yourself!
ReplyDeleteI am looking for a spring craft, little $$$$$ for seniors to make, is this easy? I love your bunnies!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes, it is super easy and very affordable. I think they would love it!
DeleteHowdy! Would you mind if I share your blog with my twitter group?
