The Future is so Bright I Gotta Wear Crafty Shades



After last week's summer inspired straw fedora make over it seemed only appropriate to keep up the beachy theme with some revamped sunglasses. Since I Love to Create and as it happens I have the mother load of sunglasses, I tried out several different options.


SUPPLIES
Crafty Chica Little Chica Paint Pack
Sunglasses
Petroleum Jelly
Paint Brush
Drop Cloth


Apply petroleum jelly to the lenses of your sunglasses. Place your glasses on a large drop cloth. Fill your brush with paint and flick at your glasses to create splatter effect. Allow paint to dry completely and use tissue paper to wipe jelly off of lenses.


This is a fun pair of sunglasses I made drilling small holes in the frame and wire wrapping with trinkets!


SUPPLIES
Collage Pauge Instant Decoupage Medium
Hole Punch
Sunglasses
Colorful Paper


Use a hole punch to make small dots of colorful paper. Remember hole punches come in more shapes than just circles these days. Use Collage Pauge to adhere your dots to the sunglasses frame. Allow to dry and wear.


It's amazing how much cuter all these sunglasses look after a quick and easy craft make over.


SUPPLIES
Sunglasses
Liquid Fusion Glue
Trinkets


Using Liquid Fusion Glue adhere anything your little heart desires to a pair of sunglasses! I see rhinestones in the very near future.

You could wear those plain black sunglasses again this summer or you could make a custom pair to match every sundress in your closet. I know which option I'm working towards.
