Home made part 2…
Home is the nicest word there is….
The finished house.
I hope you had a lovely weekend,

Way back in August I was resisting the temptation to show you my Halloween house for this year….. then something happened to September ( it just disappeared into thin air!) and now all of sudden its October.
So, since we are officially into the spooky month I can show you!
The lovely ladies in Athlone did the class last weekend and the lovely Killarney Ladies did it last night, and I didn’t take one photo! They were all so different when they were finished. The structure is already made so its just a case of decorating it – which we all know is the fun bit!
The kit for this house will be available on my Etsy shop in the next day or two – (send me a message if you’re interested)
I hope everyone is well and getting back into their crafting after the summer. xxx
Last weekend was the Great Big Craft Extravaganza in Athlone, which means classes, meeting people, and SHOPPING!!
Kate from Create with Kate had more than the usual amount of goodies, I boughtTim Holtz Pulley Wheels, a couple of sheets of Graphic 45 Curiosity Shop papers and THIS.
(excuse the crumpled-ness, I threw it away before I checked the brand!)
It is a wooden frame with chipboard boxes and measures 6x 5 3/4″
Did you see Cloth, Paper, Scissors this month? it had the most gorgeous altered cigar box by Linda Cain
isn’t it fab?! it was the inspiration for my altered chest of drawers.
There had to be a little DIY to get the wheels on – they’re heavy, hot glue wasn’t going to do it!
And this is the finished result……….
The wheels were distressed with gold Alcohol Ink and black embossing powder,
and the top was decorated with beads, pins, grunge board sprockets and some metal junk.
I love this paper, lots of cut outs!
The background paper is Graphic 45 Kraft Reflections.
The drawers were covered inside and out and because they fit in pretty snug I added some beaded pulls to get them out easily.
This side has an old door knob and a zip pull (are they Prima? I can’t remember)
so thats it, thanks for stopping by!
