Here is a frame I made. The paper didn't go on as smooth as I'd have liked, but it was my first time attempting something like this so, it's OK. It took a TON of glue to get the velcro to stay so it's not as sticky as it could be, but it still works.
I was going to just do the snowman and have it just glued on, but then it would only be useful for one season. That is how I decided on the velcro.
Three other seasons. The candy corn was going to be a leaf, but worked out better this way.
I have friends who's last name is Hawn. Many years ago when I first met them I was playing the SIMS a lot and I had a family named Hawnapple after them. Hence, this. Scrapbook paper, a wooden H, Mod Podge, and some painted wooden teardrop shapes glued into a heart.
I have a friend who is a photographer and decided to make her some giant candy for photo props. They are foam and wood dowels, covered in Mod Podge to seal, and wrapped in plastic.
Here is some of the candy. The top three are one piece, first picture in progress, second wrapped and ready, and third is showing a hole on the other side that I had no real way to fill. She will be able to hid that though. The BIG lollypop is different on each side and there are several other pieces that I don't have pictures of here. Another giant lollypop, bigger than that bottom lemon cream pie one, and some more candy pieces.
This is made for a lady that I've never actually met who is the aunt of a girl I went to school with. She is one of the most awesome people I know and I hope she likes this. I don't have any really good pictures of it it seems, but it is a star shaped box that I took a pretty piece of scrapbook paper and Mod Podged it on. Then painted the side in a sort of Ombre finish.
I just love the Mod-Podge star you made for me. The colors are gorgeous and the thought and care you put into it mean a lot to me. You too have become a treasured friend to me. Deb
