Faux Pysanky Easter Eggs

Gingerbread Snowflakes Faux Pysanky Easter Eggs

I’ve often seen Pysanky Easter eggs in internet and always found them great. But to tell the truth I find it much to time-consuming to make wax batik on eggs.
That’s why I was thrilled when finding the tutorial on how to make faux Pysanky Easter eggs which are simply painted with felt-tip pens and which I find as beautiful as the real eggs ;-)

Not long ago I presented faux ceramic and milk glass vases.
In a similar way you can also make wonderful coloured cookie plates.
I find them just right for a spring coffee table :)

Polymer Clay Faux Pearls

PCC Polymer Clay Faux Pearls

Did you always wanted to have some costly pearl jewelry? A real long necklace of pearls or a luxuriant pin of pearls?
No problem, simply make your own pearls.
You don’t even have to swallow some grains of sand as mollusks have to do ;-))

Papier-mâché Faux Bois

I’ve seen several paper maché objects, but jars looking like stumps are still something special to me.
Something especially cute ;-))

I’m not totally sure that I should make them myself ;-), but I liked them so much that I wanted to present them here.

Furthermore I didn’t know this paper maché preparation, I really like to give a try some day.

Faux Fused Glass

craftster Faux Fused Glass

Some time ago I presented the DIY Shrinky Dinks, now I found at craftster the Faux Fused Glass.
Sheer lunacy!
She published the actual tutorial in her blog.
She uses the ‘real’ shrinky dinks, but it should work with the self-made as well?!
