Craft Caddy #2

Hi and Good Morning!  Happy Saturday too!

Today I am posting another Craft Caddy that I made.  When my youngest daughter saw my first one she wanted to take it home...no I said it took me too long to make and I love it!!!  Well after giving it some thought I decided to make a second one and give it to her as a surprise...

The Craft Caddy is by Kaiser Craft and is covered using Prima Papers and Embellishments from the Fairy Rhymes Collection.  The Caddy comes in pieces and is unpainted.  I first painted all of the pieces using Americana Warm White, which took three coats to cover completely.  Then I used One Step Crackle by Deco Art and when dry I stained it using Staining Antiquing Medium by Americana mixed with Martha Stewart Lake Fog, which is kind of a taupe color.  After I finished all of this I sealed every piece using Krylon Satin Finish...unfortunately I dropped the bottom piece and chipped the corner.  When I tried to repaint it, crackle it and stain it, the broken corner looked like a different color so to hide that piece I covered the bottom piece with paper and you can't even tell it has a booboo. Haha!!!

I also used Prima Butterflies, Brads and Flowers.  Some of the other embellishments were from Recollections, BoBunny, The Paper Studio, Maya Road, Pink Paislee, Zuma Crafts, Little Yellow Bicycle, Petaloo, Art Mind Wood Tags, Tim Holtz, Ranger and lots of Lace, Ribbon, Gems, Hat Pins, Charms, & Tulle from my stash.  As you can see from the pictures there are so many embellishments I got lost keeping track which is why I don't have everything listed separately...it was just too much to keep track of!  If you decide to make one for yourself, you can just use anything you have available for the decorations...it's all up to you and what you like!

Here are the pictures of it... my daughter really liked the first one so I think I'll keep this one and give the other to her.  My post before this one is the original Craft Caddy that I made, if you want to take a look just scroll down to the other post!

Craft Caddy

Hi and Happy belated Easter!  Hope you all had a wonderful day.  I had a great day with my family.  We enjoyed three Easter egg hunts for the grand kids and a great meal.  It was so fun and the kids had a ball!  Our grand kids were here for the week prior to Easter so I didn't get any crafting done, but now that they have gone home, I finished up my Craft Caddy which I had started at a class I took at my favorite craft store the Saturday before the kids came.  I am going to use it on my desk to hold my crafting tools... Scissors, Glue, Sparkles, Gems, Pearls, Flowers, currently in use Copics, etc...you get the point.  The Caddy has four Drawers, two spaces for storage on the top and four spaces for storage on the sides.  Best of all it spins so I have great access to every area of storage.  I really love it!

It was made using a Craft Caddy Kit by Kaiser Craft, Romantic Novel Papers from Prima and lots of great odds and ends as decorations.  The Craft Caddy comes in pieces and unpainted.  I first painted all of the pieces using Americana Warm White, which took three coats to cover completely.  Then I used One Step Crackle by Deco Art and when dry I stained it using Staining Antiquing Medium by Americana mixed with Martha Stewart Lake Fog, which is kind of a taupe color.  Finally I sprayed all of the surfaces with Krylon Satin Finish to keep the stain from rubbing off.  The Romantic Novel Papers were added using Glue n Seal by Ranger.  All embellishments were added using Crafter's Pick The Ultimate thick glue.  Unfortunately I did not keep track of everything I used for decoration but here are a few that I can remember...

BoBunny Trinkets, Chipboard Pieces & Brads
Pink Paisley Butterfly Garden Charms
Tim Holtz Locket Keys, Game Spinners, Hanger Clips
Prima Romantic Novel Embellishments
Lace, Pearls and Clips came from my stash and some of the things came in the class kit
Drawer Handles were by Prima I think

Here are some pictures of it before I loaded it with my craft stuff...
