Money Boxes with Floral Pattern

Hello my lovely crafty friends, Welcome back to my blog.

A very warm good morning to you all. Hope everyone is fine and staying safe. How is the weather at your place??

Today I'm sharing another piggy box which I created using decoupage papers.


  • I first cleaned the boxes with dry cloth and next did sanding using sanding block.
  • Next I started to add colour using spoong brush and chalk paint. Let it air dry.
  • Now using mod podge I adhered the fussy cut decoupage cut out on boxes.
  • Took a stencil and chalk paint and started stenciling on few areas, let it dry.
  • Once it dry, I gave a coat of matte varnish all sides.
 Here are few close up pictures of the boxes,

Coffee Table

 Hello my lovely crafty friends, Welcome back to my blog.

A very warm good morning to you all. Hope you all are fine and staying safe.

Today's work is one of my favourite work, i loved it very much while doing. Its a cute coffee table and its only 12'' height and 12'' in circle.


  • First apply a base colour on the table top and let it to dry, here I have used chalk paint.
  • Next use re-positional tape on 1/3 of the table and apply crackle gel. Let it air dry. Remove re-positional tape.
  • Now 2-3 colours of chalk paints and start colouring whole table top and black chalk paint on legs of table, let it air dry. 
  • Note- while working on crackle gel area, don't colour again coz if you do like that then you can't see cracked effect.
  • Now again use re-positional tape in stripes leaving equal gap between each tape.
  • Next apply gliding glue in between the space of taped area and dry it using hair dryer. Here I have used iCraft gliding glue which is very skicky and awesome.
  • Now I took silver foil and applied on glued area and remove extra using gliding brush.
  • On other side I did decoupage using fussy cut butterflies motif using Thai decoupage glue.
  • Next I took 2 types of stencils, black chalk paint and started doing stenciling in middle and on foiled side. Let it air dry.
  • Once it dry, I gave a coat of thai varnish and let it dry.
  • Now took glossy accent and applied it on butterflies to give a dimension.
