This is something new that I am going to start doing on my blog. I am always making lots of stuff with my "table scraps". I am an avid collector of scraps. So much that my friends tend to poke fun at it. I'm cool with that. I have fun with it and I am always trying to find ways to use up what others might throw away.
For instance, these are the empty containers that flowers come in. One day, while playing in my room, I saw these as being fun frames. So, I got to work, cutting paper finding pictures and just plain having fun with stuff.
This one has a lovely picture of me in my pirate costume. For Maggie's 5th Birthday, we had a Pirate Party and I was appointed official Pirate Leader for the festivities. LOL! What a blast! I added beads in the raised area where the flowers were and I used my Crop-A-Dile to put eyelets in the corners so it won't come apart. On the back of the paper, I wrote a note about the event. I am sure she will play with it for years to come.
Thanks for stopping by for some Table Scraps. Have a scrappy day!
Mimi.... you are one talented missy... let me tell you! Wow...that is so way cool. As a matter of fact, I just tried to call you to let you know I have a few of the clear containers from the HS Ghost Frames again... LOL and when I checked my Google Reader and saw your post ... I had to laugh! LOL... so call me, I have scraps!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a super cute idea! You are so creative, I don't know how you come up with this stuff - I would have NEVER thought of that and it's so stinkin cute!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea!! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteLOL LOVE it!!! Wish I could be more creative with scraps. I'm probably one of those ones that throw things away rather than be someone like you, who uses them up!
ReplyDeleteWell, geez, I saw the Table Scraps title and thought it was gonna be about food! I mean, it's 11:45 and I've been up for an hour (what a life!) and now I'm hungry! Savvy?
