Holy shit it has been a month.

Well it has been a month since I was featured all over the place and I am still getting sales and contacts from that.  Oddly enough none for Jazzing up your crap but that does not stop me I jazz up my own crap when left with nothing else.  So this is what I did to a leprechaun statue that was all beige and frankly boring as fuck.  I hope you enjoy the little commentary on each image.

Newest Jazzing up of crap

So this last week something I did for fun and put in my shop because hey why not went viral that has been a lot of fun.  Well I also got some nice sales from it but I wanted to do a new jazzing to show the folks that have been nice enough to follow the fan page. 
This week I realized that the husband had a small army of remote controls laying around this house.  I hate having one here and there and you can never find the one you need.  Well that is when the jazzing came into play.  I took this basket made it a lid and turned it into a little ship.  It has a penis up in the look out.  a old fisher man and my only Sea Wee doll.  I loved those as a kid so I bought this beaten up one.  I hope this makes you all laugh it will be in my living room sitting on the coffee table for some time.  That is provided I can keep the cats off it.

Jazzing up your crap has a ass kicking week

 So this week my little Jazz up your crap line got a big boost.  It was featured on the Buzzfeed.  Here is a link if you would like to see it.  http://www.buzzfeed.com/alannaokun/etsy-seller-will-give-your-crappy-gifts-a-makeoverNow how cool is that.  Feeling very luck and happy over here.  The photo above is a jazzing up of crap for my main shop.  You can see links to it on the right of this post.  It is a soap dish I turned into a salute to Mardi Gras.  Thanks all for your time.

Ugly Collage frames give it a new life

This post is  all about doing the unexpected. I came across this large beaten up wood frame meant to hold family photos.  Well I hate them to me collage frames like that usually have no real theme and that takes away from the individual photos.  So here is what I did.  First I painted the whole thing white and then I painted in the photos.  They are all woodland animals turned into little painted snap shots.  The wood looks so much fresher this antiqued white than it did as a scratched up beaten up old walnut.

 Then I loved how it looked but wanted something to unite it all so I went with the big vine and flowers scroll type thing.  It is not my favorite design but it would bring this together nicely.  Now I at the least of a creative work not some old half assed frame.  Hope you have enjoyed this post of Jazzing up your crap.

This will be available later this week in my etsy shop www.cappysue.etsy.com  Thanks for your time

First Jazzing up of 2013 taking on dull art

 I loved the general idea of these prints but they were boring and really needed some sprucing up.  A day later with some help from a little paint I have these.

 This one is listed in my Etsy shop.  https://www.etsy.com/listing/119413289/octopus-alien-and-sasquatch-invasion

Then

I have this one which is not in my shop yet.  These are a lot of fun and something you can do with most any old unwanted prints.  Hope this made you all smile.

New Year new crap to Jazz

Well this blog has been quiet for far to long we need to bring out our shockingly odd and loud crafts and let everyone know about them.  This was made with a broken Santa head.  When life gives you a broken Santa head you mount that bitch.  So here is to hoping we get a real following this year and see many crazy jazzings of crap.

When Jazzing up your crap goes wrong

So as you all know I love to jazz up not only your crap but my own. I have always been very big on making little things we need if I have the skill. Then there are times like this when it seems I was just the tiniest bit drunk when using said skill. Hey I have toaster cozy I am proud of don't you judge me.

So the idea here was our giant ass wall AC unit lets in a little cold air even when the vents are shut. I was to make a cozy to go over it much the way you put a draft block on the bottom of your door. I had a worn and broken heating blanket that was off white and the texture has become not far off from felt. So my mind went back to those grade school days when teachers had felt boards and those lovely holiday felt cut outs they smacked up there. I loved them and would stare at them for hours while pissing away my education. Thank you Mrs. Rhodes. I thought this way I could trade out my felt decorations right in my own little hobo living room.

So I clearly miss measured as it hits the little hooks I put on but is pulled to taunt. So it will need a addition. This makes me laugh. I am sharing this first because it is ugly as all hell and why not share the laugh with everyone. Also because to me if you cannot look at what you need to improve on what it the point in making anything. I hope this Jazzing gone wrong makes every one of you smile.

Love Cappy
