Monday Arts and Crafts


It was really hot today. I ran all over town doing errands. When I finally got home, I felt like making a 4th of July decoration. It was relaxing and fun.
I love playing with paper, glue, glitter, ribbon and buttons.
This is what I came up with.

I used some of the ribbon I got this past Friday, from a really great garage sale. I got 2 big bags full of ribbon, lace, buttons, and seam binding tape, all for the low, low price of $10.00.

I hope you all had a good Monday, and are looking forward to a nice holiday.

Well, how cute, Rosemary! I haven't gotten into paper crafting at all, but I admire others that do.

Since you've already have talent with your hand, why don't you make some beauty accessories. Perhaps some sterling silver jewlery will give you inspiration.
