Valentine Re-Vamped Examples, Part One...

Okay, I'm about half way through my pile and ready to share...
First though, a reminder of what I started with


 First I upgraded the candles with some paper, ribbon, and rhinestones,
{pretend that both candles are on a stand and that one didn't  fall out and then get ran over by your car!}
next I used the black rocks and necklaces to recover the vases. Added a little ribbon there to, and holy cow do I LOVE the black one!
Last I used another left over piece of wire crate, added some paper and a chipboard letter and made a glittery monogram.


For the next batch, I turned the two placemats into a little tote, and blinged up a few bottles and filled them with treats!

Still have the jewelry, jewelry box, and baskets to go! Here's a few close ups of each piece...

I love the placemat purse! It would make a great church bag for my girls. Maybe a tutorial sometime? pretty please?

Wendy, are you still taking applicants for the exchange. I had to wait for my mom to get home from offshore before I could commit. (she's my sanity between my two little ones, craft time, and college courses.)
I would be interested. If there a minimum value for the "revamp"?
