DIY Cook Book Stand- My new fall favorite home decor!

When I saw the Pumpkin Patch transfer, I fell in love! I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. I wanted to put in on everything - pillows, shirts, wall art- and everything else! So when I found this Vintage looking tablet stand - I knew it was going to be perfect! Best part is that when I saw it, i didn't know it was a tablet stand, I just thought was a cook book stand. I can use it for both! 

Well I want too show you how to make it! It was so easy and only took 10 minutes to make - including clean up! 

Supplies Needed:

Galvanized Metal Tablet Stand- From Hobby Lobby 

Pumpkin Patch Transfer - B Size

Shimmer Shadow Paste

Orange Peel Paste 

Fuzzing Cloth

Stir Sticks

2 Small Squeegees

Step 1

Gather all your supplies. You are going to want to have them all in arms length. Stir your paste - you don't want to have to stop after your 1st color to stir the next. 

Step 2

Fuzz fuzz FUZZ your transfer! You want to make sure its not too sticky and have a hard time removing it from the stand. 

Step 3

Apply your transfer on the stand how you would like it. I made sure to have it go more to the top since I didn't want to not be able to see the bottom part of the transfer. I didn't want to lose out on the cute arrow! 

Step 4

Using the Shimmer Shadow Paste, Paste the top words and bottom arrow 1st. Put any extra pasta back into the jar.  Use the Paste and Pull Method. Lift up just long enough to dry and carefully lay them back down. 

Step 5

Using the Orange Peel Paste, Paste the entire pumpkin area. Put any extra pasta back into the jar. 

Step 6

Lift the entire transfer and place into water bath for a short time or clean immediately. I like to clean all my transfers with a Board Eraser. It works like a charm and make the clean up process to easy! Once clean, lay flat with sticky side up. Once dry, Place backer paper onto the transfer.

You are all done and ready to show off your new Kitchen Stand! Use it for a Cook Book or a Tablet, either way, it will make your kitchen feel like Fall! 

Is this something you would put in your kitchen? Let me know!

Autumn Skies & Pumpkin Pies - Easy, Quick home decor in minutes

Are you ready for fall? I know I am! I love everything about Fall. The cooler nights, pumpkin spice EVERYTHING, the leaves falling and the snuggles of my family. 

I am in love with this Autumn Skies and Pumpkin Pies Transfer. This is a great size and I even think I might make some tea towels too! 

Want to make this? 

Supplies Needed:

-Couture Boutique™ Board & Base (5” x 7”)

-Autumn Skies Transfers - A Size

-Chalkology™ Paste Bright White

-Chalkology™ Paste Papaya

-Small Squeegee

-Fuzzing Cloth

Step 1

Get all your supplies together and lay them out. Open your pastes and stir them well. 

Step 2

Fuzz your transfer before placing it on the surface. 

Step 3

To get this ombre look, chalk the top half with the Bright White Paste and the bottom half with Papaya. Leave a small gap between the two colors. With your pointer finger, smudge the two colors together in the small gap until they are well blended. 

Step 4

Peel off transfer and wash place in water bath or wash right away. Lay transfer upside down to dry. Apply backing once the transfer is dry. Store in a dry, cool location.
