DCWV Stateside - Utah State Pallet Wood Sign

New products from DCWV?

Yes, please!!

A hot ongoing trend is a bit of State-Love. Everyone loves to show a little State pride, and now DCWV has designed a full line of State themed products, called Stateside.

Yes, I live in California, but Utah is where I am from.

.... and yes making a Utah shape is quite a bit easier than making a California shape. My incredible husband rushed to cut me some reclaimed pallet wood when I text him the other day. He was also sweet enough to glue it together so it was ready for me when I got home from work, to craft with.

I gave it a quick stain spray and it was ready to add these cute heart prints from the DCWV Stateside 12x12 Stack.

I placed them over the general area of our hometown, but you get the point!

This cute little State decor matched perfectly with our reclaimed pallet/chicken wire frame, metal V, and some plants.

Jeri Vann Creations Projects for the DCWV Booth at CHA 2016

I was lucky enough to have a couple of my projects displayed in the DCWV Booth at CHA 2016 in Anaheim this month.

I also got to play with some of the newest, and cutest products!

A fun, new, and completely customize-able product is the DCWV Life Bok.

It comes with a bunch of pages for notes, fill ins, and calendar.

I had my darling niece fill it out, all about her life and loves.

I also added some pictures that I had taken of her a few days before.

Next up, I created this Guitar Layout using the new Glam Rock Stack.

Again, this is a fun picture I took of my niece and her pink guitar. The Glam Rock stack had the perfect colors, prints and wording for this layout.

Here is my Emerald Garden Card, made with the Emerald Garden Stack. I love this stack! The colors are all of the green shades I love, along with metallics.

And lastly, here is an accessory hanger I made with the Magnolia Way Stack. I fussy cut a ton of darling butterflies from the stack and placed them all around the accessory hanger for added effect.

I hope you enjoyed these projects, and get ready for some amazing new products this year from DCWV! 

Let It Snow Layout

Have you sat in a hot tub in the winter, while it's snowing?

Well you need to try it!

Then, to create the perfectly snowy layout to remember those moments, grab the DCWV Christmas Village, Favor Boxes and Ornaments Stacks!

It's hard to tell in the picture, but the layout sheet is a beautifully thick, textured, glittery page from the back of the DCWV DIY PROJECT STACK - CHRISTMAS VILLAGE.

The adorable snowflakes came from both the DCWV DIY PROJECT STACK - FAVOR BOXES and the DCWV DIY PROJECT STACK - ORNAMENTS. 

And of course, I always love to throw some darling Blue Moon Beads Charms in wherever I can! This little metal snowflake charm was perfect!

Deer Silhouette Home Decor

Have you wanted to create a home decor project, that seems a bit larger scale than normal? And you just can't find the right supplies to make it, without piecing together paper, and having seams in your project?

Well DCWV has heard your request and created larger stacks.

For my latest project I used the DCWV Project Basics: 24"x36" Silver Glitzy Glitter Sheet. Yes, that is 3 feet of amazing silver glitter!!

I have been in love with the 'deer silhouette' for a while now, but thought now is the perfect time to custom make some decor of my own. Now that I have larger scale paper to work with. Of course, I used some old pallet wood. I just love the look of it after staining it. I don't even sand it down or clean it up. This is raw, dirty, used pallet wood!!

In the DCWV DIY Project Wreath Stack, there are cardboard corrugate sheets. I used one of these as the backing for the deer. Just to give it a little more stability.

I found an image of the deer silhouette online, and printed it out. Traced it on to the corrugate, cut it out and sprayed it metallic silver.

I then traced it onto the DCWV Silver Sheet and cut that out.

I secured them together, and then to the wood.

The Deer Silhouette Decor fits perfectly into my new Winter Season home decor theme. It accents my handmade metallic silver Christmas Trees and my recent Faux Tin SNOW Blocks project, perfectly!

If you love these Wood Trees, head over to my Etsy to order!

Bring on Winter!

And... I mean it, please. We are still flooded with heat here in Southern California! We want Winter!

Fall Frame

Have you heard about the DCWV large format stacks?

They come in sizes larger then the standard 12x12, and they are perfect for your home decor, party decor or any other larger project you create. These larger stacks come in a variety of prints, colors and even page material.

Fall is almost here, and it's the perfect time to start crafting new home decor.

I used the DCWV 16" x 20" Premium Canvas Stack for this Fall Frame.

 I grabbed some leaves from the tree, covered them with some Tim Holtz Distress Ink and stamped them onto the canvas. I also used some paint sprays to give it more detail. 

This beautiful frame is made from a dirty and worn old pallet. I was hoping for a more rugged look, but once I got the stain on it, it's beauty just came out!

The frame finished at 20" x 16.5".

I cut a few small branches from the tree to make the word FALL. I threw on some burlap faux leaves and a couple pine cones, and it was complete!
