Happy Easter

April 7th, 2012 | decoupage, recycle/reciclar | 18 Comments

I don’t give Easter a special attention to be honest, Christmas is truly my favorite holiday. But last year I started to have an idea about inspiring people during Easter. Then I saw a tutorial and everything connected. I decided that I’d put quotes inside eggs. How I did these eggs: cutted only a little bit of them, removed what was inside, cleaned it very well, let it completely dry, put small quotes in them and covered the egg with crepe paper. It was super simple but it took so much time, that’s why you’re only hearing about it so late. Last year I didn’t get a chance to hide them. I’m calling this project “Acredita em ti” (Believe in you in portuguese). I’ll be sharing the quotes I put inside the eggs every Wednesday for now on, hope you find them inspiring as well. If you’re reading this because you found my egg, I’m really glad and I hope finding it brighten your day. If you didn’t get any egg, no problem I did get a chance to take lots of photos! Get ready!


This photo makes the rabbit look like a psychopath, when I saw this before editing the images I laughed really hard. I had to make it look more psycho so I put in black and white. I think it gave him more credibility.



Happy Easter for you all!

Caixa de Xadrez

August 12th, 2011 | August:No-Spending Month, decoupage | 1 Comment


My brother loves to play chess, he was the one who taught me how to play and a while ago (wow incredible how time passes, it was probably two years ago?) we played a lot. All the pieces were in a drawer and my mom wanted to make a pretty box to keep all the pieces. She bought the box and the paper over a year ago and never had time to actually do it. I guess that’s why I’m also like that xD I love to have ideas but never do half of them. So she asked me to make it and here’s the result.


There was also space to the checkers piece so it’s perfect :D

Drawing Notebook

One of my summer goals is to draw and what more than a beautiful notebook to make myself motivated? I used one notebook that I didn’t want to get rid of and just collaged it, my inspiration is this, the blog owner is such an inspiration, check out all her Collage Monday posts, they’re just amazing!
