Simply Shabby Valentine Crafts

Today we will create a few sweet and simple Shabby Chic crafts perfect for Valentine’s Day!
~ First, we will use plain wooden Christmas ornaments and some frilly embellishments to create gorgeous Valentine decor. I purchased the ornaments at Hobby Lobby, and painted them white, intending to use them at Christmas but never got around to it. You know how that goes! I used Mod Podge to adhere fabric and printed napkins to each ornament. I then created sweet little ruffles with tulle and lace. These little cuties are perfect for a Valentine Tree!
~ Next, a box from my pantry gets a Shabby Chic makeover. I painted my cardboard with FolkArt Chalk paint in the color Patina, and Waverly Chalk paint in the color Ballet Slipper. It was then stamped with Iron Orchid Designs Vintage Textures, and Rose Toile collections to give some interest to the background. We also used Iron Orchid Designs moulds and hot glue to form lovely adornments that were painted with Waverly Chalk paint in the color Plaster. Clear wax, Antiquing wax, and Rose Gold wax were also used to bring out all those lovely details! Your now gorgeous cardboard can be put in picture frames, added to notebooks, or used for bookmarks, but I'm going to use mine for tags. I'm always looking for new ways to create beautiful tags!
I purchase my Iron Orchid Designs products from Kimberly at My Victorian Heart:

A make up sponge might pick up the in better for your stamps. Rose gold is so beautiful on you molds.

[@kindashabby]

Thank you Debbie! You will love how quick and easy the hot glue molds turn out!

[@gizmo7877]

They’re all just perfect from the colors to the adornments. They’re nostalgic and romantic and lucky the person who receives these, especially on a gift. Which do you prefer for making molds? Air dry clay? Glue? Or 100% silicone? I’ve used all three but favor silicone and glue. Your antiquing took these all the way to the top! So beautiful!

[@kindashabby]

Hello my friend, and thank you! When making molds, my preference varies. For curved surfaces I prefer using clay, because it conforms to the shape as it dries. I also like clay on higher end items as well. I love the glue on flat surfaces and especially with paper crafts because it’s so lightweight. I also love how the glue looks once painted and waxed!

[@maryheckler6766]

These are all so stinkin cute! I have to try the hot glue molds. I have that bluebirds stamp, it's so versatile, they fit in everywhere.

[@kindashabby]

Thank you Mary! You will love how well glue works in the molds, and so super quick too. I think my little bird stamp will make another appearance in Spring!

[@Lee-ko5gu]

As always…beautiful! ❤️ Do you have a template for the tags?

[@kindashabby]

Hello Lee, and thank you! I don’t have a tag template. I just cut my pieces into various sizes that will fit the glue molds. I don’t worry about mistakes because I’m using a cardboard box. I would be precise about measuring if I were using expensive materials. I use a corner round paper punch for most edges. For the bird, I used a circle punch, but only inserted the corner to give me a half moon shape. I hope this helps!
