Funny Hunting Decor!

My husband is a hunter, and he hunts up on my cousins property with her husband and my brother. I am out here this weekend to hunt with them for my first time! (in a tree stand) I found this fun quote on pinterest and thought I HAD to make a sign for her. I hopped right into my car and headed to Hobby Lobby. 

I bought:

A wooden plaque, a package of hunting theme stickers, and two packs of glittery gold alphabet stickers.

I also used some clear modge podge to seal all of the stickers in place at the end. 

 

Yes! That is really all you need! Oh and I used a sharpie to sign the back of it! ☺

 

I laid out how I wanted it to look, then just simple stuck the stickers on! When I had it put together how I wanted it to look, I took a sponge brush I had laying around the house and some clear mat modge podge, and I did one quick coat over the entire thing, to help the stickers stay on better!

Here is how it turned out! 

I also bought stuff to make one for our house as well!

My cousin thought it was hilarious and absolutley loved it! It is now on display in their living room!

DIY Party Hats

I originally made these party hats for my nephews 2nd birthday party that was Spongebob themed. However... I decided not to use them at the party, because well.. to be honest... I felt a little out of place doing so. I wasn't the one throwing the birthday party so I decided to just leave them home and save them for a rainy day I guess. ha. But I still wanted to share them. I only used construction paper to make these and a thin elastic string from my beading kits. 

I rolled a piece of construction paper to make a cone. Then I trimmed the bottoms of the cones to make them flat. I glued them shut and added eyes, nose, eye brows, etc. It was really that easy! For Spongebob himself, I used a yellow sharpie marker to draw on his sponge pores. But other than that these hats are all paper!

I put a layer on Matte Modge Podge over the entire thing after I glued on the eyes and facial features, etc. Just to seal it. And the Modge Podge also added some durability to the hats. Made them a little stronger. This was fun and easy and cheap. I like cheap! :) 

One thing that I really love about these DIY party hats are that the possibilities are ENDLESS! You can do any type of party theme and make your own hats to match perfectly!

I will defiantly be making more DIY party hats in the future!
