DIY Brush/Pen Holder

Hey Guys! am back with ANOTHER super easy to do DIY pen  holder/ Brush holder. I love it because its super simple  and easy to do you can use it for many different things and also you can decorate it any way you want. The ones I did were for my desk at work to hold my pens, highlighters, markers and scissors and stuff like that. I also made some for my vanity desk at home. Most of the stuff I used I got it at Michael’s some of the stuff I already had at home. I listed all the products I used down below. So give this post a like if you guys enjoyed and let’s get started! 

Materials

Mason Jars (3) 

Mod Podge

Spray Paint 

Foam Sponge (2)

Fine Glitter (any color)

Cardboard/Shoe Box

1.First i started with a clean Mason jar.i got the regular size one since i would be using it for just pens and markers and stuff like that. But depending on what you would be using it for you can pick whatever size works best for you.

2.This step is optional but i like the way it look better. So again depending on the color you pick would depend on the spray paint you use. I picked Mint/sea-foam green color. I spray painted about two coats on the jar. I let it dry for about two hours in between coats. 

3.So after its completely dry i took my foam sponge and mod podge (i used the Mat-Mate) and applied a thin even layer of the mod podge. 

4.Then before it started drying i sprinkled thin layers of the glitter.i found that the fine glitter is easier to work with then the thick chunky glitter. I used  Emerald from Recollections for the teal/sea-foam one and for the purple i used Muse from Recollection as well. 

5.Once i fully apply the glitter all over. I shook the mason jar inside a shoe box so all the excess glitter will fall inside the box so i can reuse it for the next one. Then i let it dry for about 2 hours. 

6.Once it is dry i went back in with the Mod podge and applied a thick coat evenly. Make sure you take your time with this step so you wont get and streaks so it wont look uneven. Once i applied it all over i placed them on a paper towel and let them dry over night and i was done. 

DIY Makeup Brush Holder

Hey Guys! Am back with another DIY, since I have sooo many brushes and usually have them in different cases I had thought about make on big brushes holder and putting it on top of my vanity. I’ve seen a couple of videos already on how to do this DIY brush holder but I went a head and picked out a different size of container and color. So I went out and bought the stuff I needed at (Michael’s) of course. You can do this with any size or color you want its going to be the same steps. So if you guys want to know how to make this DIY brush holder then keep on reading down below!

Materials

Glass Vase (I got Oval) 

Ribbon you can mix & match

Sand or  Glass Gems 

Scissors

Hot Glue Gun

Flower or Bow

1.First i started with a clean vase.i got the oval shape one since i have alot of brushes. but you can pick and size or shape you like.

2.I took the Ribbon my fave color is Aqua/Turquoise color so that’s the color of ribbon i pick you can pick whatever color you prefer. So just take the Ribbon & Scissors and measured the ribbon around the vase cutting about an inch extra.

3.Then taking the pieces of ribbon you already cut and your glue gun. what i did i layered the ribbons so i glued down the darker color first then the second color on top of that. You want to glue the ribbon in small sections but be careful because it gets really hot. I glued down every 4inch just to make sure it was tight and secure. I let it for about an hour to make sure it was dried all the way.

4.Then when it was completely dry I took the decor sand and I poured it inside the vase. For the sand you can also do two colors as well but i liked the way it looks with just one color. Also instead of sand you can use gem or stone if you like but i notice that for brushes those actually ended up scratching my brush handles so i prefer the sand.

5.For the final step you can glue a bow or flower on the front and you are done!

DIY Treat Jar!

Hey guys! I have a super easy DIY for you guys that ive been wanting to post up but I just havent had the time. So beginning of last month I was on Pinterest trying to get some idea for Valentines days gifts that I can give to  my co-workers. I wasnt trying to spend too much money on a gift but I didn’t want to be cheap either! lol So I came across some of these Mason Jars DIY’s and if you know me you would know I love anything Mason jar. I think you can do so many things with Mason Jars it’s crazy. So anyways I was on Pinterest and I saw a couple of different ones that I could do for Valentines day but the one here caught my attention. So I went to Michael’s and bought the stuff I needed. I pretty much spent less than $20.00 to make all 3 jars. Down below I listed all the stuff you need for this project.

Materials

Mason Jars

Chalkboard paint (I used Krylon)

Heart Shaped Sticker

Scissors

Jute

Charms

Candy

1.So first you start off with a clean dry Mason jar.

2.Next you applied your heart shape sticker. You can use and design you want it doesnt have to be a heart. I used a heart to go with the Valentine them.

3.Get your spray paint and paint a thin coat on, wait till the first coat drys then spray a second one on. I notice if you want to get the chalkboard effect you have to paint at least 3 coats on. Let it dry for about 2 hours (i left mine overnight)

4.Once its Dry you can peel off the sticker. Then take your charm and slide it on the jute depending how much jute you want wrapped around the lid cut as desire and tie it into a bow.

5. Before putting the lid back on just and your candy and you are done!!
