Altered Wooden Ladle – A Wall Hanging :)

~ Sathya ~ 23 Comments
Hey Hello!!!

This time have come up with an altered wooden ladle….into a wall hanging 🙂

New wooden ladle was taken and painted in white acrylic paint and after drying,  distressed with Rich cocoa momento and sanded with sanding block to give a shabby chic look.

Before:

To level the depth of the ladle, added some packaging cardboard as strips and hot glued it. Then on top of it, added 2 English Tea Party Doily Angel wings is diecut from IBS vintage florals pp as base. The focal element – Butterfly is a diecut and distressed with Danube momento ink and added just below the sentiment diecut,which is also distressed with rich cocoa momento. A scallop border sticker is added as a trim under doilies on the baby pink tulle.

Handmade blooms 🙂

Tried making some crinkled flowers with pearl centers and added with florishes. Those leaves are from Ivy florish diecuts. Flowers are distressed with rich cocoa momento and Tumbled glass DI and misted with water to get shapes.

Wrapped the handle with pink grossgrain ribbon and added MS butterfly stamp and punch butterflies in series and a big butterfly diecut is added on a sentiment diecut saying “Spread your wings and Fly”. Few trims on the handle with blue grossgrain ribbon as loop for hanging 🙂

Love those sentiments and now only had time to create apt project for that 🙂
Hope you like it!!

Altered box

Wanted to share an altered box.

Top view:

Side view of the box:

This is the old cartoon box which i have upcycled.

For the base, i embossed the white CS with darice embossing folder and distressed completely with spun sugar. Scalloped oval dies of 2 different sizes are taken and distressed it with victorain velvet, Sentiment is then stamped on the smaller die and placed at centre around which the added big blooms and smaller flowers, few fancy flourish diecuts and olive leaves diecuts. The scalloped oval is accented with few white pearls. MS butterflies are added in purple, white colors as embellishment with few pink pearls.  Around the edges and to make it seamless, added baby pink washi tape and covered the flap wholly to insert inside the box.

Have decorated the sides of box with base white CS and on it decorated border stickers are added in purple and pink around the sides. Now ready to be filled with Candies.
