Holiday 2020: Pet Lover "Paw-norments"

 


Our furbaby is such a huge part of our life! Huge, literally because she's over 120 lbs but huge in the place she has in our heart. I know this is true for others as well so I made a few of these "Paw-ornaments" aka "Pawnorments" for friends. They're actually frames so you can have your furbaby on your tree or wherever! 

Supplies: (All of these supplies are from Michaels) 
  • Wood Paw Ornament Frame 
  • Acrylic Paints
  • Mirror Sequins

Like so many Makers, I pick up things post-season when they're on sale. That's how I keep my stash replenished! 


The "Kids Crafts" at Michaels are some of my favorites. I found this post season last year. Simple and easy to alter or glam up! I've seen similar there this year. 


Pop out the center and you're ready to paint! 


I did a couple of coats of black Craftsmart paint, front and back.


Then added polka dots with white paint ( also Craftsmart). 


I love these Mirror Sequins! There's something about them being so bright and shiny! I added these around the paws. 


To finish, I used an extra large jump ring to attach a white glittered jingle bell and then printed a picture of my big girl sized to fit! 


It was hard not to get the glare but you get the idea! She was so good while I was decorating, just laying and watching what was going on. 

And of course, this would make a great kid's craft but since my kid is in grad school...
