Tuesday's Trash to Treasure: Holiday Blocks

Holiday Block Decor Tutorial
Reuse: 2x4 wood

Materials:
*2x4 wood
*Decorative Paper
*Mod Podge
*Stickers/ribbon
*Letters

_Cut your 2x4's into different sizes for each letter. I forget my exact measurements, but mine ranged from 4"-8" tall.

_Sand the tops, edges & blemishes.

_Spray paint the blocks. 

_Cut your paper to cover the fronts of each block. Glue to wood with Mod Podge.

_Glue letters to blocks & apply Mod Podge over the entire fronts. 

_After drying, you can add embellishments if you'd like, or if not, then you're done!

Wedding makeup

I got to do my friend's makeup for her wedding this past weekend! I LOVED how it turned out! I used a medium purple on the outer edges, then a light shimmery brown/gold on the inside [and of course, fake eyelashes!]. For her lips we used a purply color....SO cute! Here is the picture I took, hopefully I'll get one professional pic from the photographer soon :)
