RECYCLING WITH A TOUCH OF HAMBLY
I love it when we can turn trash into treasure. So today I wanted to share this little project with you, before you decide to ditch that finished packaging tape roll. Take another look at it and see the possibilities of another wee project.
Supplies: woodgrain remix HO 812, birds on a wire HP 040, little circles HP 451, woodgrain remix HP 043, birds, nests, eggs, flowers, vines, old packaging tape rolls, ribbon, eyelets and buttons.
Step 1: Measure the packaging tape roll and cut from two different strips of pattern paper. Now adhere to the outside and the inside.
Step 2: Squeeze some white paint out and dip one end of the Sellotape roll in it. Allow to dry.
Step 3: Measure and cut out two circles. Make a ledge with one of the circles. Fold and adhere in place. Adhere other circle to back. Allow to dry. Finish of by arranging nest, bird, flowers, vines and eggs on ledge and used a strong adhesive.
Step 4: Finally make a small hole at the top, thread flower onto eyelet and then screw. Add some ribbon and a button to front of ledge.
I hope this has inspired you to take another look at your trash and turn it into treasure!
Thanks
Leeann Pearce
