My First Exhibition!

  After exploring so many craft forms,I wanted to participate in an exhibition.And finaly got chance in an exhibition at New Mumbai.I shared stall with my friend who also had kept handmade articles for sale.Following are some pics of my exhibition.

I had no idea about how many no of articles to be kept for each type. I had kept 3 types of items. One was quilling frames,second was quilling gift envelopes and third decorated bottles.Following are some pictures of wall frames.
I have recycled glass bottles by decoupage.These can be used as bottle lamp also. 

Last one are quilling envelopes. There were two types,one with thick gold paper envelopes and other thin/normal paper envelopes.
So these are updates of 2 days exhibition.It was a great experience to sell your craft in an exhibition. learnt lot of thing, and now ready for another exhibition.

Pen Stands

This is up-cycled project.I have up-cycled tin as pen stand using decoupage.Inspiration is from  Dr.Sonia's Blog.


These are my two pen stands.One for office and one for home.

This is how I started-
Clean the tins

I wanted to use glitter so applied it with decoupage glue.

                  After that I pasted pattern paper on tin. then 2 layers of decoupage glue.
This is another pen stand,with different pattern paper.

Both the stands can be decorated further.I am finding for matching satin ribbon for it.A cute ribbon bow will give complete look for pen stand (will upload picture shortly)

My up cycled pen stands. 

Glass Bottle Decoupage

I wanted to try decoupage on glass bottle since long.It took a lot of time to collect all material as I am new to decoupage.
And this is the final product.

Eifel tower and roses cut out ,golden and red color  combinations,some gliter and lace.

3d effect given to rose with 3d outliner.

This is my decoupaged bottle. For back ground I used golden and red color.It will look fab with lights in it. Soon I will update photo of lit bottle.
This is slightly smaller bottle.Again decorated with roses and one big red flower.

Colored lace added to top. Some gliter and golden colour painted on remaining part of bottle.

This is the pic showing all sides of bottle !
These are my first attempts....now I will try many more like this.
