When I think of LOVE I imagine everything white, fluffy and full of Christmas lights. Whuhh? You don’t think that’s love? FINE, LOVE is fried chicken, cozy pj’s and a ice cold coca cola. Better! (teeeheee)

Seriously yesterday morning I woke up around 3am because this cough decided it wanted to get up and drink coffee, craft and watch tv. I can’t get rid of this darn cough y’all. If you have any home remedies please leave me a comment cause I need something that’s gonna work. So, I am up aimlessly walking around trying to figure out what I could do. I really didn’t care as long as it had to do with an upward position. It seems the “cough” only likes to act nice when I am not laying down.
I went to my studio and the first thing I saw was puffy paint. YES! I had some bottles soaking in water for another craft I was going to do but who cares, I just grabbed them.

Off to crafting I went. 6 am I was done with craft and already shot pictures. Wahooo let’s get started on these puffy paint vases.

Puffy Paint Vases

Are you flipping out. Cause I am. I think I am  a little 7 year old inside because anything that is bright still makes me super giddy all inside.

Soak your bottles in ice cold water. I don’t know why but this makes the paper come right off. I usually put them in the water for about 2 hours.

See! It just peels off. I don’t put anything in the water btw.

Choose your puffy paint colors and start puffing. (teehehe)
All you need to do is put dot’s in any pattern that you want. I just winged it and put dot’s down. I mean dont’ get me wrong, I had an idea of what I wanted before I started but I didn’t use a template.

Quote of the day:
Everything’s intentional. It’s just filling in the dots.

Did you know polka dot’s are coming back like they never left? Just thought I would share that with ya!

Do you ever walk in the stores just staring at all of the UH mazing frames for sale. Then you look at the price and realize they are kidding. There is NO way I will spend 30 bucks on a frame when I can enjoy making one on my own. Well I lied, if it’s a really fancy one from an estate sell or antique shop then yes… I just sat in my office a minute ago and realized how close Valentines Day is. Well I know it’s not right around the corner but WHOA where did Christmas go? I kinda love Valentines day because I get to shower my honey’s with ton’s of yummy things!
Did I mention that I love pink?

This tutorial is so much fun. You can design your frame any way you want which is so nice! It’s perfect for Valentines day also. It looks like little pearls when you finish it with a white or off white spray paint. Wanna see how I did it? Let’s check it out!

To start you will get grab a bottle of puffy paint, grab your hazmat suit and your ray bans.. JUST KIDDING!

You won’t need a suit but it’s gonna be so cool you might need some shades when you are done! If you use a smalle frame like I did you will only need one bottle. I actually had a little left over. Start by making dots all over your frame. When you are done let it dry completely.

Before you spray paint it take the back and mirror out of the frame then you ready to ROLLLL!
