Happy Halloween

A day late but still, HAPPY HALLOWEEN!



I used my laser to make this Addams Family Porch sign that I got from a blog, agirlandagluegun.com (click here). Check her out - her tutorial includes a free cut file! 

Here is the side profile. I'm not sure if you can see the engraving. I used 1/8" MDF and this one measures approx. 11.5 x 16. I used my passthrough on my Glowforge to do this size. I love that I have the option to make bigger projects when I want. Other materials I used was primer, acrylic paint,  and some acrylic glitter paint. I love the way it turned out and can't wait to use it again next year . . . or I might just leave it up in my studio. 😳😂 There are many seasons going on in my space right now, and it drives my kids crazy, so I leave it. 😂




I've been working on some Christmas items and I plan to have a post in the up coming days. Make sure you subscribe to this blog if you'd like to stay in the loop. 

Don't forget you can now find me on Instagram @maddiemarrs2020. 

Thanks for swinging by and until next time. -MaddieMarrs

Halloween Ghost - Tic Tac Toe Game

  What a fun classic game - Never gets old. This cute ghost game set can travel with you, or help time pass if you are waiting for an appointment with your special ones. Because come on, who doesn't love to play tic tac toe and silently compete? 😂  Using my Glowforge laser, this cute ghost was cut and engraved on baltic birch wood. Acrylic was used for the games pieces (ghosts/pumpkins).  The ghost is  approximately 5.12 w x 6.5 h.   If you are interested in one, you can find it by clicking on this link:   https://square.link/u/c8P7PpVi  -or- by clicking on the SHOP tab listed above.  Until next time, Maddie

Revisiting an older DIY post.

UPDATE: To an older DIY and post.   I had added some paper to the inside of this cute metal envelope holder. You can find that post here:  https://maddiemarrs.blogspot.com/2020/08/a-quick-and-simple-diy.html . Although it came out cute, something was off Something about the bronze was just not hitting me the way the way I wanted it to, so, I decided to paint it white - and now, I love it! You can see that in this photo I had already done a light sanding. I used white gesso for this project.  Lots and lots of gesso.  ðŸ˜… Oh my gosh, since it's metal, I can add magnets! How fun! I am going to leave it as is, but it would look great distressed. For now this will be on our mantel as part of our Valentine display. Afterwards, it will probably be hung in my studio and hold some yarn. I do love this, it screams happy. Until next time, Maddie

My Garage My Tools My Rules Sign Decor using my Glowforge Laser

This wood sign was made using my Glowforge laser, and is hand painted by me. This would make a great Father's Day gift.  However, as I sit here typing this,  I just thought of how fun this would be in pink, maybe some gold, maybe some glitter? I don't know, it sounds like it would be adorable. I  may have to put that on the list of projects I'd like to get done.  The sign is approximately 15 x 10.8 and sealed with a matte finish.  If you are interested in this piece, please click on the SHOP tab above or click on this link:  Garage Tool Rules Sign Thank you for stopping by and have a happy crafty day, Maddie
