Suncatcher

Mondrian Inspired Suncatcher

Supplies:
Black Frame Mat
Tissue paper
Glue Stick
Scissors
Card Stock
ribbon

Cut a piece of card stock the same size as the mat. Cut out the center the same size as the mat. Cut strips of tissue paper enough to fill the center of the mat. Use your glue stick to rub glue on the back on the mat. Place strips of colored tissue paper on the back of the mat. Place one strip horizontal and then the next one vertical until you have covered the center of the mat. Cut a piece of ribbon. Glue to the back of the mat. Now gule the card stock to the back of the mat to give it a finished look. When it is dry you can hang your suncatcher up with a suction cup hanger on the window.

Jewelry - Vintage Pendant

This pendant was made with my Grandmother's jewelry. It was an earring that I made into a pendant.

Magnet

Laminated Photo Magnet I like to use my laminator and I like photos. I have wanted to find creative ways to display favorite photos rather than displaying them in small frames. Here is my laminated photo magnet. Supplies: favorite photo card stock ribbon hole puncher *laminator laminate sheets circle magnet tacky glue    Cut photo to desired size. Cut card stock 1/4 inch larger than photo. Center photo onto card stock and glue. Then laminate it. Trim photo around the edge of card stock. Punch holes around the edge of card stock. Cut ribbon twice as long as diameter of laminated photo. Start at the top center of the laminated photo and weave ribbon in and out of holes. Tie a knot at the end and trim. Put a dab of tacky glue on the back of the magnet and then stick to back of laminated photo. Let is dry completely before using.
