Polka Dot Jars // If you have followed WhipperBerry for any time at all, you know I love my jars. I love to bake with jars, decorate with jars, organize with jars… you name it, I ADORE jars.  This week I found another fun, yet simple way to dress up my jars with DecoArt Glass Paint …

Isn’t this a fun way to dress up your jars for an event? It couldn’t be simpler with DecoArts Glass Paint 3D Frost Gloss Enamels…

Deco Art Glass Paint

DecoArt sent me a bunch of their glass paint to take for a spin. I was madly getting ready for my last minute trip to Hawaii, so I didn’t have a ton of time to create a painted masterpiece.  I did however have just enough time to dress up a jar and then I had a thought… This would be so fun for a birthday party or shower, basically any type of event where you would like to add a little playful fun element to the party. The nice part it hardly takes any time at all to create these fun polka dot jars.

Supply List

Instructions

  1. Make sure your jars are clean inside and out. Wipe down the outside of the jar with alcohol to prepare it for the paint.
  2. Select your 3D Frosted Gloss Enamel color and using the handy tip just start placing dots at the tip of every diamond on the quilted glass jar.
  3. Let dry completely, this takes a few hours or best over night.
  4. Fill with your party beverage, screw on the lid and top it off with the fancy straw. 
  5. Line up your jars on a table or tray and your guests will be amazed!!

How easy is that!! Seriously, you could get a whole parties worth of jars painted in no time at all.  Give it a go and let me know what you think!

If you are looking for more glass painting projects, DecoArt has created a fabulous site for their Glass Painting Program that you should check out.  It has all kinds of project ideas, product information and videos!!

Friday Flair Link Party /// Blueberry Truffle Tartlet Edition

0 · · 31 Comments

Wowza… it’s late! The good news, It’s even closer to FRIDAY! I’ve been madly working on getting the kiddos ready for the first day of school, planning for the blog while I’m away and getting ready for Hawaii.  CRAZY!! My Honey left for the islands last Sunday so I’ve also been doing all that while flying solo. No worries, I’m almost finished and then it’s nine days of rest and relaxation on Kauai.  If any of you have been there and have great suggestions for some hidden gems on Kauai I would LOVE to hear them. We are leaving our kiddos with some of our favorite friends on the planet so my family planner is going to come in handy.  So glad I already have that ready to go!

Now, on to this weeks inspiration photo.  It comes to us from Love & Olive Oil…

Don’t they just look delightful? I’m going to have to add this to my must try list. I can’t say I’ve ever thought of putting blueberries with chocolate, but I don’t see why not. Have any of you guys tried something like this? I would love to hear your thoughts.

Now it’s time for you to dazzle everyone with your genius…

It’s time for Friday Flair!

Outdoor Living Space, What’s Your Style?

0 · · 4 Comments

I have magical memories of my parents back porch from the home that I grew-up in. It’s my favortie outdoor living space… It’s a lovely over sized covered porch on the back of their home in Colorado. I can remember spending most of our summers out there eating dinner, sleeping out in the backyard, entertaining friends and family and just quietly sitting and enjoying the cool Colorado summer nights.

As I have gotten older I’ve enjoyed sharing my love of my parent’s porch with my little family. We’ve had so many wonderful family gatherings there, sharing in many thrilling milestones. We’ve celebrated engagements, marriages, births, birthdays and special Sunday morning brunches before church.

This was the family lunch we had after spunky Em’s baby blessing way back in 2004. My parent’s porch is just the perfect place for gathering. I’ve spent hundreds of hours out there playing and now, watching my children play. My favorite is the winter time…

Watching the kiddos playing in the snow and building snowmen is one of my favorite things to do on my parent’s porch…

The style on the porch isn’t fancy. We have a large round table, big enough for everyone to gather around and a few comfy chairs to enjoy those special moments in.

One day… I want to have a large covered porch just like that, where I can enjoy precious moments with my family as well. Here in Vegas, the newer homes just aren’t built with any yard to speak of, so I’m going to have to wait until we move somewhere greener someday. I can’t wait to dress my porch up! The problem will be narrowing down my style… I just love so many things!

What is your backyard style? Do you have a magical porch to dress up or do you have a deck, patio, balcony or stoop? Or a fire pit grill for outdoor barbeques? What activities you you like to do with your family in your outdoor space?

Answer the question below and one of my readers will win a $25 Sears gift card!
