Pimp my ride

For Christmas we wanted to give my little sparkle a push bike. We could not find a pink bike anywhere! We had to buy a black one but I still wanted it to be unique.

That is when I came up with the idea to foil it. Let's be honest I'm foiling everything these days it wasn't a big leap to foiling her bike. I can't take credit for doing all of it. My husband took over half way through because well..he is a perfectionist so naturally it would be better.
So to bling your bike you will need: A bike, double sided tape, dark pink sparkle foil,modge podge
First, place double sided tape where ever you would like it to be pink. Next cover with foil, press and peel. Then modge podge.We made an R on the front by cutting the pieces of tape.

How cute is that? Now we always know which bike is hers. Although that won't guarantee the other children won't want to steal it :)

Our Christmas table

I just had to show you my Christmas table. We were at my grandparents in Underberg and my granny loves dark blue and gold. Which is perfect to use foil art with. I just wanted it to be touches of gold so I didn't do loads of foiling. Just on the glass bottles and the wide candle.

I used craft glue and antique foil on the bottom of the bottle. I just painted a fine layer of glue on the bottle and wrapped it in foil and left it to dry for a few days. If you would like to make it permanent you need to seal it with glass sealant.

On the candle and the taller bottle I just wrapped the bottle in double sided tape and rubbed the antique gold foil over it.

It really looks so pretty and subtle.

What did you do for your Christmas table?
