I haven't posted much lately because i have been so damn busy...I am purchasing a house! I am sooo excited, but there is alot of work to be done!! I have been obsessing over remodeling and decorating the place, and since I am on a budget I will be doing alot of DIY projects..I have found so many on the web that I must share with you...
I also finally got the sunglasses I have been eyeing forever, we just need some damn sun up in northern michigan so I can put them to use!
Anyways the first DIY project that I will be sharing is kate’s vintage brooch knobs.
I found this project on design sponge and I can wait to try it out..
"for february i have picked vintage jewelry as my diy material. these knobs are made from vintage enamel brooches, which i fine everywhere these days: flea markets, thrift stores, and ebay. these brooches have such a nice vintage color palette and pretty details, and i never find two alike. while i was on ebay i found some other good options like vintage cameos, art deco rhinestone brooches, and bakelite pieces, all of which would make great knobs for a dresser or side table. happy crafting! -kate"
What You’ll Need:
1. brooches
2. size 8/32 brass flat head machine screws (1.5″ long)
3. size 8/32 brass nuts (you need at least three nuts for each knob)
4. brass washers
5. pliers
6. epoxy or strong bond glue (make sure it works with metal)
7. sandpaper
