Watercolor's and Stencil's are back!!!

Hi Beauty~

I have had such a fun week!  Why, you ask? It's simple, I have been playing with Watercolors and Stencil's.  These are the same craft items I played with as a young kid.  If you watch my YouTube channel or follow my Instagram, then you already know what I've been up to this week.  If not, then let me show you.

 

This was my Life Book that I like to just leave little notes and advice for my family and friends who browse through my life, whether I am still alive today or my great, great grandchildren can read it years from now.

 

Just as I had fun in Kindergarten, I had just as much fun putting ink to paper in any way shape or form, to create this lovely background for the pure quote.  It's such sound advice, don't you agree?

 

Here is some stenciling I have done in my Life Book as well.  I copied this from my Plan With me for the week. 

 

 

It really is so relaxing to revert back to the arts and crafts of my childhood!

Dollar Tree DIY Decor

Hi Beauty~

Oh my goodness, I went to the Dollar Tree to look for some Garden Party Décor on the cheap!  I think I found exactly what I was looking for.  I made two great pieces for only $2.50 each.  I had to share these ideas all in one day on my youtube channel because I was so thrilled with the look.  I am thinking these would also make great table centerpieces for a wedding or any party.  Can be made up to be elegant and can use various flowers, beads, blink and so much more.  The possibilities are endless.  Here are my videos and pictures for you (Starting with my $20.00 Dollar Tree Haul).

 

Now that you've seen my goodies, let's see what I have made with them so far.

 

 

Who doesn't love Burlap and Flowers?  See how I made this in the following video.

 

Now Let's see the next piece!

 

 

I think it was so cute and yet even more simple to make.

 

Now let's put it all together!!!

 

 

Didn't that come out super cute?  I really think it did, especially for Spring!

If you get any inspiration from any of my ideas, please post them on Instagram and tag me in them @JeanPiersanti.  I can't wait to see what you come up with!

Block Hand Lettering for Beginners

Hi Beauty~

So, what is my newest obsession you ask?  I am trying different types of hand lettering.  I am using it for my Junk Journals, Bible Journaling, Pocket Letters and Addressing my envelopes and packages.  I am having so much fun learning new techniques.  This week, I tried my hand at block lettering.  I didn't have anything to copy after, so I kinda just tried and saw what came of it.  I liked what came out so of course, you could probably finish my sentence at this point... Yep, I made a video for you to see. Here is a video.



Here is a sped up version as well.

What do you think?  Myself?  I think it was pretty nice for being so simple!  And, as for the pens I am using (everyone always asks).  Here is where I got mine from.
