kategorier: Papperspyssel, Project Life (Fotoalbum)

For the last couple pf days I have been taking a free online class from Anika that teaches you how to make your own papers, tags, color-palettes and journaling cards in Photoshop. Its just wonderful and here comes a sneak-peak of my first try:) If you also wanna sign up, follow this link.

 

This is the color-palette I used as a base.

Recolored MULA from IKEA

kategorier: Okategoriserade

2014-06-13A few week ago I tried to find this specific toy for my daughter that she loved from a babycafé we use to visit. I found out what it was called and also found that a cheep one was to be found at IKEA. The one at Ikea is called MULA.

Then I came across this wonderful post from Elin that had repainted her (the original colors is really boring) and I instantly started to plan my own remake.

bildSo I went to IKEA and bought MULA and then went to Panduro for some paint. With some advice from my sister we ended up with  47 Turkos, 23 Ljuslila and Olive (?). The green paint’s label is missing so I’m not sure on that one.I really think they are happy colors and the turkos is of coars my favorite and If i could do as I wanted everything in our home would be in that color.
I first laid on two layers of white and then two coats of the color and I think it is enough. In heinsight I would have bought another color for the metal (even if the paint says that it works on metal) due to the fact that the paint peels away a lot, but I don’t bother me that much (yet).
