I have a baby on the way, and we are doing house renos so my Christmas budget this year is pretty tight! So what I've decided to do is make as many gifts as I can. My sister has recently moved into a new home, so this year I'm going to give her some funky kitchen utensils in her favourite colours!

You Will Need (6 things)

  • Sticky Tape
  • Rubber bands
  • Acrylic or Oil paints
  • Paint brush
  • Bamboo or wooden utensils

  • groovy coloured paints

Steps (5 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    You will need:
    Bamboo or unstained wooden utensils
    Your choice of groovy colours
    Rubber pants or tape
    Paint Brush

  2. 2

    I'm going to use thick rubber bands,
    They hold tight and leave a nice space between the colours I've choosen

  3. 3

    I've chosen Pink and Yellow!
    You can use acrylic or oil paints, but if using acrylic you may want to apply a clear sealer if your going to wash these regularly.

  4. 4

    Apply a few coats, allowing time to dry inbetween.
    While you're waiting, why not paint some other utensils as well!

  5. 5

    Once your happy with your coverage (2-3 coats is usually enough) and your paint has dried, it's time to remove the bands/tape!
    and TA-DA!
