Gift Giving with Styled by Tori Spelling

Gift Jar with Styled by Tori Spelling Key Chain // Hello my friends! We're running slow today with another snow day here in Lincoln. Can't complain at all in my book. Snow days are the BEST!!!! We've settled down with a Harry Potter marathon and I, of course had to do a little creating on the side. With Valentine's day around the corner I thought it would be fun to make some simple little gifts for teachers and such with some of my favorite Styled by Tori Spelling goodies…

I thought it would be fun to create a gift jar (of course) and make a little key chain for my daughters teacher this year. For the jar I just took a little 4 oz. jelly jar and cut some craft paper to fit the lid and glued on a gem flower from Styled by Tori on top…

Toss in some coordinating tissue paper and you have a simple yet beautiful little gift jar. Couldn't be any easier than that. The jar, quite frankly is also part of the gift. The person who receives it will be able to use it to store little items in and they will adore it!!

Next, I created a fun peacock key chain for the "gift" in the pretty jar…

This one is super simple as well. I found this lovely peacock charm from the Styled by Tori line and then I bought a nice clip to attach to it to make the key chain…

You may need to use some needle nose pliers to open the ring up a bit to attach the clasp and peacock. Close the ring and voila, you have a fancy new key chain…

Many of the Styled by Tori charms will work perfect to make a fun decorative key chain. Next, all you need to do is to attach your key ring with your keys and you are in business. I always like to have little clip on my keys so I don't lose them in my bag, so that was a must!

Won't this be a fun little gift for teachers or friends for Valentine's Day, teacher appreciation, mother's day, birthdays, anything really. You can make up a bunch and keep them in your gift stash and always be ready with a fun gift at hand.

Add a little glam with Styled by Tori Spelling // It's no secret… I'm in love with the fun little trinkets from the Styled by Tori line of customizable jewelry collection. I've been having a ball creating fun items over the last few months, but I thought I would show off some of the glam that I've found from around blogland to wet your whistle a bit more.

This Winter Mantel from Positively Splendid is truly stunning!! The gold and navy theme is perfect for a little gold pop of glam from Styled by Tori. I just love the little details…

Divine!! It's so fun to add the little pops of glam to mantel displays or vignettes that you create to decorate your home though the seasons. I loved my New Years vignette where I used some of the gold glam like Amy…

These little trinkets are perfect to take a project to a whole new level. They are also a wonderful way to embellish gifts to share with your friends, teachers, neighbors, anyone really! These lovely bookmarks made by Christina from An Intimate Wedding…

I would LOVE to receive one of these bookmarks. You can tell that the person gifting these really took the time to make something special for you. Tori's line of glitz is also fun to make hair accessories out of…

These Downton Abby inspired hair accessories created by Cindy from Haute31 are just to die for. Who wouldn't want to travel back in time for a bit, to live like the ladies from Downton Abby? Thanks to Styled by Tori we can do just that. Amy from Positively Splendid also made a wearable accessory… A felt poppy flower that is just luscious..

It's perfect for dressing up a bag or outfit or even dressing up your home decor. Because the Styled by Tori line is so affordable, you can even use it to add a special touch to your party or event. I love the vintage brooch escort cards that Christina made from An Intimate Wedding…

It's a fantastic way to add a little vintage glam without the vintage price! And… Let's not forget the jewelry that we can make with these little gems.

This DIY Brooch Necklace form Wearing It On My Sleeves is just too fun! I also just adore the statement ring that I made a few months ago as well…

You know you can find the full line of Styled by Tori at Michaels and select pieces at JoAnns as well. What have you made? Share a link in the comments section. I would love to see what you guys have created with these fun items!

Ring in Your New Year with Styled by Tori Spelling

2 · Dec 28, 2012 · 3 Comments

Nothing rings in the New Year better than a little glam! As I was thinking about my New Year’s make over for my Winter White Wreath, I thought some Styled by Tori Spelling goodies would be perfect to dress up my wreath and get her ready for the party!

She dresses up pretty well don’t you think? I created a New Years banner out of paper and some of my Martha Stewart gold glitter. I used my Silhouette Portrait to make the black letters out of paper for the banner.

If you follow me on Instagram you saw my craft fail with the banner… I managed to regroup and came up with something much better than my original idea.

Once the banner was made I pinned a gold 3 layer necklace bottom from the Styled by Tori line onto the wreath with just a couple of straight pins, to dress her up for the celebration. Now she needs a couple of friends to join her for the party.

These are so easy to make. The first one, I just tied a glam dangler onto the candle with a little black ribbon. The other one I used one of the connectors to attach another gold dangler to a fun pendant and then attached it to the candle with a little dab of hot glue. It took five minutes to give these candles a little glam makeover… That’s it! I added a few more items to the group to round out the display…

I made a simple sign for 2013 and used a fabulous frame and mirror, both from Target to round out the collection. I had fun playing with the frame while taking pictures…

ahhhh, I love playing with the camera! What do you have planned for the new year? Any fun projects up your sleeve with the fun Styled by Tori products? I’m already dreaming up ideas for January and can’t wait to share!

Santa Candy Jar with Styled by Tori Spelling

1 · Dec 17, 2012 · 1 Comment

Looking for a quick last minute Christmas goodie for your friends, neighbors or teachers… Here’s a cutie last minute gift a Santa Candy Jar, that’s high on wow with Styled by Tori Spelling and yet, super easy to make!

I’m always looking for fun and easy gifts for those special people in my life and this one is too cute. Here is what you need to make this fun candy jar…

Supply List

Large Mason jar
Krylon Cherry Red Gloss spray paint
1 1/2 inch black ribbon
Styled by Tori Glitz Pendant
White yarn
Clover Pom-Pom maker
Hot glue

Instructions

First thing you need to do is paint the lid of your jar with the Krylon Cherry Red Gloss…

I wrapped the jar in a plastic grocery sack and then screwed the lid on, right on top of the bag. It was perfect! Then I sprayed the lid with slow even strokes using my spray paint trigger. Let the lid dry for a few hours. It will be “dry” after about 10 minutes or so, but will need time to cure.

While you are waiting for the paint to dry, you can make the pom pom for the top of the lid. I used a few different types of white yarn and some Divine Twine bakers twine to tie it off for mine…

I used the handy Clover Pom-Pom maker to make the perfect pom for the top of Santa’s hat. If you haven’t used the Pom-Pom maker before you should check out this video on how to use them. They are fabulous!!

Next, I measured out my ribbon and and prepared my pendant…

If you want your pendant to lay totally flat, you will need to take some needle nose pliers and with a little muscle, break off the hook on the back of the pendant. Then use your hot glue gun to glue the ribbon onto the jar along with Santa’s belt buckle (the Styled by Tori Pendant.)

Now, all you have to do is top of the “hat” with the pom-pom. Tack it down with a little bit of hot glue and you are good to go. Fill the jar with some red candy and your Santa Candy Jar is good to go. Include a nice little note and your friends will adore you!

It’s so pretty, you may find that it stays out for display for the entire season!
