FOLK ART, OLDE CROWS, PUMPKINS, FALL DECOR, CRAFT TIPS and a GIVEAWAY!

I was at my parent's house the other day walking in their yard and that is when I felt it. That little something different in the air. That little nudge that speaks every so gently (autumn is here). I hope you are enjoying your start to Fall this year. I would love to know your traditions, how you decorate, what are your favorite crafts to create or maybe just something that Autumn special.

This week at Lazy Porch Antiques we have been busy creating all kinds of new creations! I have to admit it, I love primitives and of course pumpkins and crows. These signs are new to the shop and hand-painted on pine wood.

I love to recycle vintage sweaters into new craft projects. This sweater was covered in bright colored cotton pom poms. So why not save them!

For these mini pumpkins I used rolled fabric swatches and double over felt to create stems.

Antiques, Aprons, Giveaways & CRAFT TIPS

Well it is almost upon us! That beautiful fall season where the leaves swirl around and the pumpkins can be seen on porches, businesses and in every food in the grocery store!

This week has been busy! I have listed many new antiques in the shop; one being this Avon pitcher. So ruby red, it would be perfect for fall parties and maybe a holiday or too.

It can be purchased in my Etsy shop and the link will be at the bottom of this post.

This is one of my favorites! It is a lovely white bowl with lid, and is adorned with beautiful yellow birds. Again this can be found in my Etsy shop.

Now on to the best find of the week! I purchased this beauty at a local yard sale! You will love the detail in the glass and can't you just see cupcakes, and finger foods displayed on this piece at your party or desserts at a fall wedding?

What is going on in the wood shop? Crows and pumpkins!

We have mastered the art of crows and silhouettes. You can purchase your pumpkin in the etsy shop below.

Now you know the week would not be fun without a giveaway~ this week we gave away a beautiful pumpkin sign that I hand-painted. 

What will we being offering next week? Hmmm, I think I smell something amazing around the corner.

On Thursday I rested, my kiddos and me decided it was a good time to take a break from the hustle and bustle and spend time together this is the post that was shared on my social platforms. Everyone should take a break...it makes for a well rounded business.

I added aprons to the shop this week! They will fit your 18 to 20 ounce dish soap bottles. Great for gifts!

CRAFT TIPS ARE HERE

TIP #7

Keep your leftover fabric to create fabric rag balls to coordinate with your decor!

TIP #8

Cut fabric strips 8 x 3 1/4 inches and loop over a metal wreath frame and pull ends through the loop and pull to tighten. Work from the back row to the front alternating patterns as you go, I also use ribbon and jute twine too. Three strands of jute twine tied into a knot will create a mini spray. The photo below shows the finished crafted rag wreath.

I created this wreath with my mom. The sign in the middle was just tied with jute to the wire frame.

OK, now about that giveaway! It is coming this Friday! All you have to do it go to one of my platforms and follow the instructions to enter. Don't forget to share it with friends. Hope you win!

Hello September and all things FALL! Plus CRAFT TIPS!

Hello September!

WHAT'S NEW: We are getting prepared for the upcoming holidays coming up right around the corner. I have been so busy with bringing my creation to life lately. I just had to take the time to post a few exciting things happening at Lazy Porch Antiques.I have started adding hand-painted signs to the shop.Here is one of the samples. 

These pillows are in the shop!

Pigs, Cows and Chickens and Yes! they are hand-painted!

I have been hanging out in our wood shop and decided to try my hand at some wood signs, I have fell in love and have so many ideas rolling around in my head.

     

These little red truck signs will be coming to the shop in September, this is just a sneak peek! Thinking about pumpkins or trees...we shall see!

I love sheep so I had to create a fall pillow. This little guy is hanging out with his pumpkins.

I have something new that I would love to share with my followers, I have started a new video tip series called Crafty Tips. They will be numbered so you can watch them over and over. I love to craft and sell my treasures but I also love to teach other to craft too! So I thought why not share my tips so others can learn new techniques and ideas that help them love to craft even more! 

These tips can be found here on the blog.

Craft Tip #1

How to prep a canning jar for painting.

I clean my jars with a paper towel and rubbing alcohol before painting them with acrylic paint. This cleans and preps them for the paint.

Craft Tip #2

HOW TO DRY PAINTED CANNING JARS FAST

I paint my jars and dry them in the sunshine. They dry fast this way and it allows me to achieve several layers in large batches.
