Past Creations

    

Before I start posting new DIY's and crafts I figured that I would make a quick summary of things I have created over the past year and a half. Of course, not all are included since that would make the post impossibly long, but here's a few of my favorites.

Fraternity Cooler, May 2013

This was my first cooler for Teddy, and only the second cooler I'd ever made. I labored over this thing for weeks and unfortunately the sealant didn't hold up as well as I'd hoped but in the end it's still one of his favorite things I've ever made, so that's a success in my book.

Dresser Revamp, July 2013

Admittedly, this one happened with a little help from my dad, but we picked this guy up off the side of the road in my neighborhood and it looks good as new! Just some pulls from the hardware store, some sanding and painting and I ended up saving over $100 on buying a dresser. 

Graduation Paddle, May 2014

I made this for my Big before she graduated this spring. Didn't take much time at all and she loved that I thought to make her something.

 Fraternity Cooler, May 2014

This is definitely one of my favorite creations so far. Took me about two weeks to do, and most of that time was spent on the free-handed wood grain. It was a huge project but I absolutely loved the way it came out in the end.

& More

Of course, this is just a quick glimpse of the things I've done and if you're interested in the rest feel free to follow me on instagram @elizabethcip. If you have any questions on how any of these are done just email me at diyelizabeth@gmail.com or post in the comments! 

Wish me luck,
