I think that this is a great idea: splatter a big button with nail polish und put on a ring and in no time you have a nail polish splattered button ring! :)
Surely you can also make a matching necklace and earrings and pin and bracelet and and and ;-)

Paint Coated Beans
As long as fresh flowers still are rather expensive you can make your ambiance easily cheerful with paint coated beans in jars ;-))
If you don’t like beans very much, you can better fill the jars with coloured salt.
Bon appétit ;-))

Onion Skin Dyed Easter Eggs
Because I nearly forgot Valentine’s Day I prefer to start a little sooner with Easter crafts.
And you may possibly practice a little before ;-)
I find that the onion skin dyed Easter eggs look wonderful and it doesn’t seem too hard to make them :)

Coloured Cookie Plate
Not long ago I presented faux ceramic and milk glass vases.
In a similar way you can also make wonderful coloured cookie plates.
I find them just right for a spring coffee table :)

Ok, it’s no sand, but chalk coloured salt, but the jars are wonderfully colourful, aren’t they? ;-)
