Faux Crafts
I was just tickled with the way this Faux Gumball Machine turned out. Basically, all you need is a terra cotta pot and saucer, an ivy bowl and some paint - oh! and some gumballs of course!
The shoe polish “wooden” finish on this Faux Wooden Checkerboard Box is so real that you might have 
to pick the box up to realize it is really cardboard.
Put a Faux Oil Lamp candle holder together from a variety of objects found around your house, spray the assembled pieces in flat black, then add a hurricane glass. This page includes photos of several versions made by readers.
Not a “faux” finish exactly - but definitely a safe place for your valuable trinkets, masquerading as a book. Learn how to make the secret hollow in this Book Safe to hide your money or jewellery in plain sight!
