Green Crafting

Last week I bought a magazine about green crafting. The magazine has so many ideas about what they call repurposing items. I guess repurposing is the new trash to tresure. The magazine has inspired me to make a few things. This is my first finished project.

It all started with a Starbucks hot coffee cupholder. Crafter, Linda Manning Findley thought of a way to make a Christmas tag from the holder. I would of never thought of making a tag like this, I am glad she did! It was a nice project for a snowy afternoon last week.

I covered the holder with a newspaper print paper and distressed the edges.

Then, I added a pink cut out flower and a few leaves.

Next, the tag needed a brown satin ribbon tie and a little purple and yellow trim. I added a cute saying, " Make the most of everyday". I have already collected a few more holders to recover or should I say repurpose. The only thing pink about the tag is the flower, I wish I could of taken a better picture. Note to self, work on photography skills!

Thanks for visiting!
