Lego night light.

Nautical designs are my favorite. Should just stick to them.

Discovering mod podge even though it's existed forever is a new fun challenge. I love the old movie poster and going to be working on many more. Making it not perfect gives it an old vintage feeling.

Bradley had this idea for an SS. Minnow sign. Hanging it with nautical rope finished the look.

Next moved on to fishing signs

The colors on this one turned out well together. And using rusty old nails for hooks created a vintage look.

So Bradley and I started making some signs using pallet boards. A great cheap way to create unique art in your own style. All we did was glue the boards together with wood glue, paint them in either acrylic or latex paint. Using stencils you can create anything.
The first one we did was the mermaid. It's not perfect but it's just the beginning.

Paper cut mermaid, vintage style, sits on a clam shell nicely. If you layer the ocean cut outs in the background, you get a nice underwater glow. This mermaid was found doing a google image search and same for the bath sign.

How inspirational to have advice from a mermaid to read everyday!
Beautiful red head mermaid is paper cut against a deep blue sea. Painted background.
Simple design yet beautiful.

It's fun to make a themed night light in any style you choose.
You will need:

A cardboard craft box approx 5x5 or smaller
Plastic window (can be table cover cut to shape)
Hot glue
Paper cutouts (mermaid, treasure chest, or any other design)
Craft sea grass, shells
Paper flowers
Pompom ribbon
Acrylic paint
Sparkle paper
LED night light
jute ribbon

For each night light it is the cutting and gluing of all the parts that can be tricky. The easy part is embellishing in your own style.
I will post a tutorial on how to attach the plastic window and the LED light and how to create depth for the paper cutouts inside and how to affix everything so that it does not fall apart.
These night lights handled carefully will last forever.
You can make them as simple or as elaborate as you choose and have fun with any theme!

A bit of glare with my camera but this lights up really nicely.

Hello Kitty is light plastic and hollow, her companion is a paper cut out along with a row of colorful paper trees and houses in the background to make it funky and fun.

This is a simpler and easier to make design. Just a lot of pink kitty fun!
