DIY Embellished Beaded Flip Flop Tutorial. I’ve seen other beaded flip flop tutorials that I have not posted because they looked a little skimpy and like the glued on beads would fall off. This will not happen in Trinket in Bloom’s tutorial here. *One image download.

Paper Lantern Makeover | Green Wedding Shoes

One of the cheapest ways to decorate is with paper lanterns. And painting/decoupaging is one of the easiest ways to make them your own! This is a beautiful mix of flowers cut from fabric and pastel paints in coordinating colours. Although it’s designed for a wedding it would be perfect for any room of your house. I can see these in baby’s rooms too - maybe cut out animals or abstract designs?

DIY Jewelry Stands. I know you can now buy these at Michaels and don’t have to go online, but they aren’t cheap (I use velvet covered heavy duty ones to hold my collection of big bracelets). These are meant to hold lightweight jewelry - but you cannot beat the price for these! Tutorial at Blah to TADA! here.

Oil Lamp Mason Jars {How to}

“My second repurposed idea is a mason jar oil lamp. All you need is a jar with a lid, a cotton wick and some lamp oil. I made a hole in the top of the zinc lid with a nail and pulled the cotton wick up through the opening. Then I filled 2/3 of the jar with lamp oil and secured the lid. I let the jar sit for about one hour before lighting so the oil would soak up into the wick. You only need about 1/4” of wick sticking out of the top to light. These little mason jar oil lamps are so easy to make and probably cost me about $3.00. I once lined a church walkway using these for a evening wedding. *Tip~a cotton shoelace works great as a small wick.”
