We drove into Portland last week and I got to visit a Target store. Our nearest Target is about 90 miles away! I was so happy to find some adorable peach print cocktail napkins which I knew would make fun earrings. When I played with the peaches, I came up with some other ideas to boot!
I adhered the peaches to white tin pieces and they took about 1/2 hour to make. Easy!
Step One: Spray paint cookie tin with white paint.
Step Two: Separate the napkin so you are left with the top ply.
Step Three: Use glue stick to attach the napkin to the white tin.
Step Four: Cut out using tin cutters and cover with Mod Podge or Judikins Diamond Glaze (my favorite)
Step Five: After the glaze is dry, drill a hole and attach the fish hook earring finding.
The next thing I did was play with other peach pieces to make a “fabric”. Recently I joined Zazzle as a designer and wanted to design a baby bib using the phrase “peachy keen”. I cut out individual peaches and put them on some cardstock and took a picture adding my FREE magazine fonts.
All I had to do was download my “fabric” and Zazzle loads the image on the baby bib or HUNDREDS of other products. I have so much fun stuff in my Zazzle store like pillows, canvas wall art, hoodies, greeting cards and baby bibs. I started a Zazzle storefront if you want to check out the products I have made:

The last project was a greeting card, it will be available for printing in a few days!
Thanks Target, for the inspiration!

Thanks! I haven’t looked at all the products you can put designs on….however when I saw that Zazzle has shower curtains I immediately thought how cool your quilts would look on one! I tried to make a shower curtain but I can’t figure the photo requirements. I guess there is a learning curve : ) Let me know if you start a store. NanasWorld has a store.

Oh yes that would be fun to turn one of my quilts into a shower curtain 🙂
