Dont have enough money to buy it? MAKE IT!


HEY EVERYONE!

As you may or may not know ...
I now have a Diploma in Manicures and Pedicures .. XD!
So I have been looking on Ebay for some items related to that!

Today I thought I could do with a Nail Varnish Display Stand ....
I have sooo many nail varnishes! 
I looked and the cheapest was £8 or something... I thought to myself... 
omg I could make one! 
So I did!

I gathered some wood from the shed 

1 thick bit, double the length of your keyboard!
I thought about what shape I wanted it to be and came up with a stairs effect 

I sawed the wood in half
(placed my wood half on a low table then put my foot on the bit on the table then sawed)
(please be careful when sawing, if you can, get someone who knows what their doing)

Next I sanded down the rough edges of my wood
Then I messed around with what way I was going to put them together
when I decided I painted the sides that would be seen
(waited till dry)


Then I glued the bits of wood together with wood glue from pound land
(waited till dry)


Then I wanted to decorate it so it was all pretty!
so I found some little stars and glued them on!
(waited till dry)
I only decorated the bits that would be seen!

This is the end result! 
Now my nail varnishes can be displayed neatly!
these are not all my varnishes but these are the ones I have out for autumn! 

I hope I have inspired you all to make something!
remember if you really think about it you could make something out of nothing!
I only used once pice of wood, glue, paint and sequin stars!



Before you spend the money you may not have, take time to think creative and make it yourself!

Thanks for reading!
