Let’s make it!
There’s a pattern on the base, but Pam decided to use Mod Podge and some shiplap scrapbook paper for her background. She painted Mod Podge on, placed the paper, then sanded the extra from the edges.
Next, she placed half wood beads all around the circle frame, hot glued them on, then painted them with Bohemian Blue.
Then she painted the “Squeeze the day” wood words (also with Bohemian Blue).
Pam painted the lemon frame with Bright Yellow, then painted the slices with White Swan.
She added Mod Podge over the white, then placed a yellow single ply striped paper napkin over the slices, trimmed them apart and then sanded the edges of the paper off.
TIP: Be sure to trim or sand off any extra paint or paper from the edges of your slices so they will fit just right in the frame.
She also sanded the outer ring to bring out some of the natural wood.
Pam used Erin’s DAP Rapid Fuse glue to attach the wood lettering and the lemon pieces onto the surface.
Then she made a “Clumpy-Dumpy” bow, and gave it a trimmy-trim. Pam might be a hot mess, but her bows somehow find a way to work out just right!
She used hot glue to attach it to her masterpiece!
Pam used Erin’s technique of adding a beaded hanger to the back….
She just hot glued the ends of her twine and secured them with pieces of craft sticks.
And here it is!
Pam hopes you enjoyed her little craft today! Let me know in the comments what you think! I appreciate each and every one of you.
Thanks so much for stopping by,
XOXO-Erin
