Just wait until the time comes.

Little things that I’ve come up with that give me the satisfaction of Christmas crafting, while still letting me do important things like packing hospital bags, sleeping, and eating.has also been coming up with a few more manly decorating ideas that I’m hoping to get to share with you too.

Things that involve specific gauges of wire, and copper piping and stuff like that.Keep an eye out for those!.So this mason jar.

I’ve seen quite a few of those DIY mercury glass type jars around, and I love those, but I do still have to lay off the spray paint for a few more weeks, so I thought it might be fun to try out some gold this time around..I started off with one of these leftover from some pasta sauce..

I added three coats of this stuff with a little paintbrush.

The paint I used is DecoArt Dazzling Metallics in Champagne Gold..So it’s given me the impression that changing a light fixture is kind of a difficult thing to do that requires some skill and finesse..

Listen up all you finess-less folks!The other day we were putting up a new porch light in the back and I asked Chris if it was something that I could maybe make a post out of.

So he finally showed me how to do it as if he were showing it to all you lovely people (ie.with no cursing) and it was like a light shone down from above.
