Gracie's Snacks Upcycle Jar with Craftwell

Hi!!! Happy Wednesday!!

It is Pam here today on the Craftwell Blog sharing with you my upcycled project!!

I decided to give my cat "Gracie" an upcycled treat jar.

He is so spoiled.

YES...

Gracie is a "boy", lol!!!

AND...

He has a story to tell about his name!!!

I began of course with his treat jar....

Run strips of pattern paper through the Xyron Creative Station or use your favorite adhesive.

Wrap pattern paper that has adhesive applied to it along with borders around jar.

Stamp a Crazy Cat image on to water color paper.

Color with distress markers.

Sandwich prepared colored image along with die and label dies between two "A" plates, "B" plate, metal shim and platform using the Craftwell Cut N' Boss.

Add labels and prepared crazy cat to front of jar.

Die cut borders and rosettes using two "A" plates and platform using Craftwell Cut N' Boss.

Form rosettes; add large one to top of jar lid along with a metal knob.

Add smaller ones to front of snack jar.

Adhere small circles and brads to centers.

Wrap twine around jar lid ring with twine.

Die cut label using watercolor paper using Craftwell Cut N' Boss, two "A"plates, "B"plate, metal shim and platform.

Water color paper with distress markers, dry completely.

Do stitch line work and pets name with the word "snack" with black pen.

ABC Primer Upcycle Instant Coffee Tin with Craftwell

Happy Wednesday!!!

I am sharing with you and easy upcycle project using instant coffee tins.

So get that hot water going and get to drinking so you can have an empty tin to work with, giggling.

But...seriously any tin would work.

Begin by die cutting two borders out using die, two "A" plates, "B" shim, metal shim, and platform along with the Craftwell Cut N' Boss.

Run pieces through the Xyron Creative Station or use favorite adhesive.

Cover tin with adhesive pieces.

Die cut labels and doilies with pattern paper using the two "A" plates, "B" plate, metal shim and platform along with the Craftwell Cut N Boss.

Run die cut pieces through Xyron Creative Station or use favorite adhesive.

Add large label and honeycomb die cuts to front of prepared tin.

Add smaller label to front with pop dots.

Add fussy cut image to front.

Add washi tape around lid edge.

Adhere pattern paper to top of lid along with die cut pieces.

Adhere knob to top of tin.

Adhere small strips of pattern paper and metal brads to side of tin.

So from an empty tin to a fun storage container.

Fast, easy and a fun upcycle project.

I hope you have enjoyed my ABC Primer Upcycle Project.
