Junk Journaling Interest Hobby

 Junk Journaling Interested Hobby

Hi! Welcome to LilacsNDreams! Sorry for not being here last week. Dates, times, schedule, and I guess I lost track of what I wanted to do.

Anyway, we all know I like to craft, upcycle, repurpose, create, restyle, and etc. Along with this I have a love for scrapbooking, and different things that involve that too. I enjoy sitting down with paper, embellishments, and putting pages, and albums together too. I once did a full wedding album for my sister-in-law. I did all the prepared pages, and I did design the outside of the album to make it more hers too. I really enjoyed doing it. 

So, here is my next thing I am looking at adding into some of the creative things I do. Journaling, or Junk Journaling is how I’ve seen it worded. I don’t know a whole lot about it yet in order to share specifics with you. Not yet anyway, but I am looking into it more, and hope to be able to come back to share more with you. Facebook has a few Junk Journaling Groups that I am finding, and signing up with too. 

I apologize that today is a short posting, and not my usual. I want to review a little more with this subject so I can better share things with you. Hey, if you know anything about this subject feel free to share with me, and others here. Love all the input I could get.

Thanks for stopping by, and visiting with LilacsNDreams! Take care, and have a fabulous day! Catch ya later!

Glass Candy Snack Dish Candle Holder Upcycle DIY

 

Glass Candy Snack Dish Candle Holder Upcycle DIY with LilacsNDreams

Welcome to LilacsNDreams! I am excited to share that I repurposed, upcycled, and restyled this gorgeous glass stand by using 3 pieces of glass. I united the pieces using an industrial adhesive. The glass pieces used were a glass candle holder along with 2 glass snack dishes. The dishes are the same shape, design, and size. I am happy that all 3 pieces thrifted are very clean, great shine, and show a very very minimal size of use, if any at all. I do not feel any kind nor do I see any knicks, cracks, or chips with the glass pieces. When I united the glass snack dishes I flipped the one over so that they were united bottom to bottom of the dishes. Doing this gave it the unique look of its own. 

These are the 3 glass pieces used for this pedestal stand

There are so many creative ways to use these pedestal stands:

- They can be used for all types of events, and parties; Weddings, Birthdays, Anniversary, use to display in a shop or cafe, use for office supplies, catch all for everything, and so on. 

- Great for use in displaying candies, nuts, mints, pastries, truffles, and for all the holidays and seasons too.

- Use for some unique home decor center pieces, table decor, candle holders, succulent plants, etc.

- Could add a little glass cloche with it

- Add some of your favorite things, add some seasonal decor, little knick knacks, and many possibilities

So many versatile uses to consider as the stands can come in all different sizes, you can get creative and repurpose handmade glass stands pedestals in many ways, they can be scattered all around your home-your shops-your boutiques-your businesses, and I think you’ve got the idea. 

Buy for yourself, or for an unforgettable gift too. 

These next pictures I did not create, but I found being shared by other creators or businesses.
