This is a super fast and easy
DIY Project that I did last week! I think these
Painted Lace Tins look great in
Christmas Vignettes as a part of your
Holiday Decor, or they would make great containers for your
Holiday Gifts ! You could fill them with tasty treats, bath and body products or craft supplies, for all of your family and friends. Fun!
This is what I started with, some plain
old Vintage Tins, with a great patina! You could also reuse new ones, that you have around the house, and just paint them a solid color to start with.
Supply List:
1) Martha Stewart Adhesive Silkscreen
2) Foam Pouncer
3) Martha Stewart Gloss Glass Paint - Opaque White
4) Old Tins
Step 1: Place the Adhesive Silkscreen onto your tin and using your pouncer apply the paint.
Step 2: Peel up the Silkscreen and
allow the paint to dry. Then move on to your next section until your done.
Guess what? That's it!! Isn't it gorgeous!!! I can't even begin to tell you how much I love these silkscreens. The detail is amazing! It actually looks, and feels, like real Lace!!
Imagine this filled with all sorts of tasty treats, what an amazing gift that would be, and then the recipient has this gorgeous tin that can store all kinds of things year round!
On the round tin, I matched up the lace pattern each time after drying, to get an uninterrupted pattern that goes all the way around the tin.
There are loads of different patterns to choose from too! This one is called
Antique Lace, I couldn't find it online, but I got mine at
Michaels. You can find more info about this line at
Plaid. I can't to try more projects with this stuff!!

Oh wow. That looks gorgeous on the tin. The old patina.. with the pretty crisp white lace. What a paring. It's wonderful. I have a set of those and I think I need to go create now ;) Thanks for the inspiration!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Shannon! Sounds like you're all set then! I keep hoping that I'll get picked to do a sponsored post of Martha's products so that I can get more of these, I want to try them all now! haha
DeleteLovely! These would be great to have, filled with goodies or even empty, thanks for sharing.

How do you come up with all these great ideas? You are so CREATIVE! This is just so sweet without having to use up my vintage lace. Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteOh no! Sorry Pendra! haha On the plus side to this one, you can use the adhesive silkscreen over and over. I've already used in on some ornaments!
DeleteThanks for this wonderful idea! This is a wonderful and easy project for my 9 year old daughter. She's always asking me for to-do projects to be just like mommy! ;oP
ReplyDeleteECK, Yes, this would be a good one to do with kids!
DeleteWhat is the name of the Martha Stewart Adhesive Silkscreen that you used? I can't seem to find the same lace design. Thanks...they look great.
ReplyDeleteHi Debby, It's called Antique Lace. I couldn't find it online, but I was able to get it at Micheals.
DeleteWaooh! This is really great! I will try to find these silkscrrensheets on line somewhere!
ReplyDeleteAnd...thanks for bieng there, Karen! Your blog and all your great images(for free!) is a gift from heaven for sure!!!
Thanks for your sweet comment! Have fun with the silkscreens, they really are great!
DeleteLove it!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jenn!
DeleteThey look great and the lace does look real! I actually clicked over to find out why you were calling them "painted" lace tins, lol. I thought the tins were painted and you glued some lace on. Thanks for sharing this wonderful idea!
ReplyDeleteVintage Gypsy, It is a really, real looking effect, even when you see it in person it looks like the real deal!
DeleteThe tins really do look like there is real lace on them, even the texture. I hope our Michael's has them. Those would be great to work with on so many projects.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you shared these Karen. I don't tend to go to the Martha Stewart aisle as her stuff is over my budget and so often can't use the coupons on her stuff. If I can't use a coupon I can't buy.
Hope all the bloggers, etc. have their rewards card for Michaels as it does save.
srpprcrftr, Yes, I love those coupons too! Just an fyi, my Michael's has the Martha stuff split up in 2 different areas. The regular Martha line is up towards the front, but all of these things were in the back with the glass painting products. It took me awhile to find it!
