I begin a thought that hey, I love my geekness.. let's exploit it! :D
So here I will be listing my personal favorite amazing projects and things I will start attempting!
And I start with a simple stencil template design... of course Star Wars first!
A little rough around the edges, but I cleaned those up! I have this little red tin that had been sadly just sitting around my house, but it had some silly permanent marker writings on it, so I figured HEY! I can clean that up!
And voila! Some masking tape and glitter mixed with this fantastic metal shimmer paint I came across at Hobby Lobby and some mod-podge (well it's basically Mod-Podge, if you can afford, that's what I would recommend!) EZ-PZ. And fabulous!
I love it. really, I do... but you can still see that drating marker! So! I took some paint mixed with mod-podge since I don't have any primer and this is metal, just won't cover properly.
Annndddd....

It's hard to see on the camera (I don't own a digital camera, something I will def invest in!) It's just our little phones, but I like the copper tones it adds. I want to take this is a steampunked direction. Add some wiring and gears to really make it pop. But I really enjoyed doing this project :) Hope to do TONS more like it!
See ya soon!
