Today we will bring you up to date with the last two Iron Craft Challenges – April Showers…. and the Spring Contest. Can you believe three months have gone by and it’s already time for their Spring Contest?!
Challenge 18 – April Showers…You know what they say about April Showers (or in some cases April Snow), it brings May Flowers. Let’s kick spring into full force, this week’s challenge was flowers. [See all the submissions from Iron Craft] |
Rhonda Greene’s Submission: Flowery Yarn Bomb
Funny, then, that when her neighborhood woke up one morning, they found this at a fairly busy intersection! Not that she’s admitting to anything. *twiddles thumbs and whistles* Read more about it on her blog! |
Melinda Hileman’s Submission: Upcycled Flower Pot
After multiple layers of paint and crackle medium, Melinda finally got the color she wanted! Then she added some faux flowers she had so it could go in the barn bathroom where the broken TV used to sit! See more pictures and read the whole story. |

Melinda Hileman’s Submission: A Gift of Spring
Click the image to the left to see the price breakdown. Before painted, the eggs were wooden, and the porcelain-like bird was flesh-tone and had sand glued all over it (ick!). (Not included are the E-6000, cardstock, paint, paintbrushes and crackle medium.) Melinda had a blue parakeet, so anything with cute little blue birds is special to her (and her favorite color is shiny light blue – just like the eggs!) See more pictures and read more about the project. |
