Cottage & Family:
farmhouse friday

Today I just

wanted to show you

a couple of clever

uncommon Farmhouse ideas ~

I have some things on my website

from a local artist who

does some of the most

creative things ~

Just paint and bling

some gardening tools and they

work perfectly inside too!!

I also wanted to show you

a super cuteness candle holder

idea that my son in law did ~

You've gotta love a son in law

who gets junkin' and recreating!

Also I wanted to say

congratulations to April for

winning the giveaway at

Funky Junk Interiors to our shop!!

I wanted to revisit this tutorial for

LaurieAnna's Farmhouse Friday

because it can be used on

so many different surfaces and is

perfect for farmhouse decorating ~

Since I have burlap around and

buckets around I thought it would be fun

to recreate that look ~

Here is a quick tutorial on how to do them ~

It is super duper easy!

1. Cut a piece of burlap a size that would fit

your bucket ~ I cut it then fray it a bit ~

2. Paint an area on the front of your burlap

that is larger than your number stencil ~

It doesn't matter what brand paint you use ~

This is some I had ~

3. Lay down your stencil and paint it in whatever

color you would like ~ I used black ~

4. After it dries then I used Modge Podge

on the back of the burlap ~

5. Place it on your bucket and

smooth out the bubbled areas ~

That is all and it is super quick !
