Decorative Paper Clip

A fun way to decorate a paper clip is to use clay.
This on I did to look like a marshmallow. I put on some white clay and dusted it with flour. the flour helps the texture. after you cook it you wait for it to dry then brush of the flour. and then its done a quick and simple diy.

 p.s. if there is a gap on the bottom just super glue it and then its good as new.

Deco-Den Phone Case

I already talked about deco-dening. In these photos I deco-dened cellphone case. the first cellphone case, I messed up and put to much silicone on and it turned out way to heavy. I suggest just enough to cover and look nice.

Deco-Den Mirror

I deco-dened this hand mirror. I love it and think it is really cute the only bad thing is if you have a lot in your purse it will get dirty but just a little cleaning and it will be back to normal.
