Done! Simple Shabby Chic Picture Frame!

Jučer sam objavila post sa jednim radom 'u tijeku', a evo kako izgleda okvir nakon dorade! Kao što sam već spomenula u prošlom postu, nije ništa posebno, najjednostavniji shabby chic, no kako je to moj prvi shabby chic u uporabi, morala sam ga objaviti na blogu. :D

Na slici smo ja i brat na njegovoj maturalnoj večeri u veljači 2010., a njega sam ipak malo "sakrila" :D Šteta samo što mi se okvir ne slaže s ostatkom namještaja u stanu, ali baš me briga, meni se sviđa :D I da, mislim da bi bilo bolje da je crno-bijela slika, ali to ću već srediti :)

Boja je točnija na gornjoj slici, ova donja služi samo kao mali detalj. :)

English: Yesterday I posted some work in progress, it was this frame actually and here it is how it looks finished up! I know it's the most simple shabby chic ever but I like it this way. Also, since this is my first shabby chic which is actually useful, I decided to post about it. :)

You can se my and my brother on this photo, I covered his eyes haha :D It's such a shame that this frame sin't really the same style as the rest of my furniture, but I couldn't care less. I like it. Also, I think a b&w photo would be better, but I'll make one a bit later. :)

The color is more accurate on the photo above (it's not that creamy-yellow), the botom one is just a small detail. :)

Nadam se kako vam se okvir sviđa!

Hope you like it!

Again some hot glue work!

Few days ago I finally finished these two makeovers. These were plain dark blue planners but now they look way better. At least I think so. :D

Though, I'm not so satisfied with the green-blue one. Didn't turned out the way I planned, but it's not that bad either.

What do you think? :)

Lamp shade makeover!

Some time ago my lamp shade cracked at the top (the part which was glued to the frame cracked) so I had to take it off and consider eather getting a new one, or perhaps try to fix the old one. Since my finacial situation isn't so great at the moment and I just couldn't afford a new lamp, I decided to give a makeover to my old one and now you can see how it turned out!

It might seem like an easy job, and it actually is, but the whole process wasn't going as I planned. I didn't have all the tools which would be useful to have so I had to manage myself. It didn't turned out so perfect, but I'm satisfied with my first try. Now I have to give a makeover to my other lamp shade too (at the moment I have 2 different lamps in my bedroom :D ).

Here's a *before* look:

And here's how it looks after my makeover:

Give your planner a makeover!

Yeah, I'm a person that easily gets addicted to everything that's cool so from yesterday I'm officialy addicted to hot glue :D So, since yesterdays work wasn't enough for me, I decided to make up my favorite planner (I actually didn't have a favorite one until now :D ).

Anyway, Here I used 2 layers of acrylic color, patina and of course - hot glue (these bubbles were made with hot glue, they're not cabochones though you can easily get confused!).

Here are my pics and this is definitely my last post for today. It's been enough. :D

The color isn't so bright, the lightning was completely off. It's more like navy blue.

And, that's it! The other side is still navy blue, but I think I'll go with decoupage to cover the back side. Will show you how that turned out too. :)

What do you think of my old-new planner? :)
