Hi all
I do hope you are all enjoying a crafty weekend. I have managed to finish crocheting a baby blanket (another project out of the way lol) and then of course wandered to my sanctuaryto sit and think what to do. The other day a colleague at work gave me a bag ful of broken jewellery and at the bottom of the bag were heaps of bangles. So that was it an idea was born. I decided to make a pen holder for her desk. Kind of upcycling her bangles and giving them back to her lol.
Ingredients
bangles, glue, gesso
pink and cream acrylic
odd flowers and leaves from my stash
lace and bead trim from my stash
Velvet ribbon from my stash for the inside rim
Marvel dry milk tin lid for base
Marvel dry milk tin lid for base
rub n buff to finish it off
Well thats it for today......
Hugz and love
Elaine... that is a pretty awesome pencil holder and I bet your co-worker is going to be thrilled to get them back in this new form!
