"Man Cave" Duck Commander® Decorative Tile by Candice Windham


Man Cave Decorative Tile
Designed by Candice Windham

Nothing says manly man more than Duck Commander® images and sayings.

Here’s an easy project using KellyCraft’s™ Duck Commander® Stamps, Stazon Ink and Kool Tak Artist’s Tape. It’s quick, but looks like you spent all day on it. The best part: It’s a double duty project. It can be placed on a small easel for pure decorativeness or placed next to his manly man recliner as a coaster to hold a man-sized drink.

Make it for your favorite guy’s man cave. He’ll love you for it.

Duck Commander® Ornaments by Cindi McGee

Autumn is upon us and the holidays are fast approaching.  Stores are beginning to clearance he autumn decorations and craft items, and Christmas ornaments and decorations are starting to appear.....

Why not make some special ornaments this year for someone who loves the Robertson family, duck hunting, being outdoors, or everything Duck Commander®?

Cindi McGee made these fun ornaments with Makin's Clay® so they are durable for use year after year.

She rolled Natural Makin's Clay® thin, then stamped the Duck Commander® images with black permanent ink.  Star and duck cookie cutters were used to cut around the stamped images.  She made holes in the top of each while the clay was still fresh with a straw.   Once the clay had dried for 24 hours, Cindi added some DecoArt® Gold Metallic Lustre® to the edges of each ornament, and a light layer over the stamped front of the duck ornament.    She added some strips of cotton fabric dyed with Rit® Dye and some jute twine to hang her ornaments.

You can find our entire line of Duck Commander® ornaments here on our site.
