Disney Drawer Knobs & Lightswitch Plate Cover


As some of you know, I am a huge Disney fan. I wanted to add a little Disney to my daughter's room, but I didnt want to go overboard because her decor is not in primary colors. I decided to alter some drawer knobs. I even made a lightswitch plate cover to match the drawer knobs.

All you need to do this simple project is the rub-ons of your choice, drawer knobs & a lightswitch plate (I got mine at Home Depot for under $5), and some modge podge to seal it. Carefully rub-on the picture of your choice to the knob or plate and then seal it with a few coats of Modge Podge. This was so easy to do & the longest part of the entire project was waiting for the modge podge to dry in between coats.

I hope you enjoyed my quick project =)

Hugs, Loreen

Guest Designer for Wish On A Scrap

As some of you already know, Kim of Crafting for Sanity was the lucky winner of the premiere contest kit offered at Wish On A Scrap. All you have to do is purchase the kit & submit one of your creations using the kit to enter into the contest. It is that easy for an opportunity to win the following month's kit for free! Kim did an amazing job with her kit, showcased her work, and won the July Contest Kit.

I asked Kim if she would be my guest designer for the month of July to show off her new work with the July kit. I was delighted when she agreed =) Kim has been very busy with her kit and has made some really beautiful cards. Kim is super creative and even made an adorable little bag. Check out her stuff:


You can read about all of the thoughts behind her amazing work on her blog, Crafting for Sanity. Thanks again Kim for sharing all of your work with us!
