Happy New Year's, love Madge



This is last year's New Year's Eve project with a little musical interlude for your edification and entertainment. These are really super cute (the little one on the bottom is a man's boutonniere, I still have mine from last year...if you don't date them you can use them again!

Insert evil crafty laugh...here.

2013 is going to be TECHNICOLOR, RETROFABULOUS, GLITTERY AND GLAMOROUS! Big, bold, beautiful new directions are unfolding and y'all are gonna love it! I am heading into the new year with my arms wide open, my heart filled with gratitude and my grin a mile wide! LIFE IS LARGE! Let's rock this year, people! Huzzah!

Have a Happy, Happy New Year's, I shall toast to each of you at midnight with a glass of bubbly!  

xoxo

Recently I have noticed a fashion trend toward feathers. They are on clothes, jewelry, they are even glued into people’s hair! I didn't feel like the little skinny feather in your hair made much of a statement, so I made this week’s project as an over the top salute to the new feather trend. It’s fun, crazy, and creative so I hope you have as much fun making it as you do wearing it!


Supplies
Aleene's Liquid Fusion
Aleene's Jewel-It Adhesive
Tulip® Glam-It-Up!™ Iron-On Studs™
Multicolor felt bird scrapbook sticker
Black plastic headband
Feathers (Hot Pink, Yellow, Green, Red)

Instructions

1. Attach three feathers together by applying Liquid Fusion to the bottom of the feathers. It should be spread slightly so it has almost a fan effect but no gaps between the feathers. Let dry for 2-4 hours.


2. Next take your felt bird and lay out your seven crystals around the tail to the head. It should go in this order: purple, light pink, red, orange, dark yellow, light blue. Then put a dark blue on the eye. Put a dab of Jewel-It on each crystal, apply to the felt bird in pre-determined spot. I used glue since the felt was made of man made fiber. Allow to dry for 10 minutes.


3. Use the Liquid Fusion to glue you felt bird to the bottom of the feathers and let set for a few minutes before the next step. Now on the back of your feathers apply a line of glue on the middle feather and attach to the side of the headband. Let dry for 2-4 hours.
