Home Decor - Table Decoration

My son loves books. His High School was throwing away old reference books so he brought them home. He knew I would try to make something with them. I made one book into a tree. You can use it on your table for any holiday. Paint it green for Christmas, blue for Hanukkah, pink for Easter etc...or leave it black and white for any day.
Table Decoration

Supplies:
old book, large telephone book or magazine
spray paint (optional)
Take an old book and cut off the front and back cover. Then start to fold each corner into the center, do this to every page. You can use a butter knife to smooth out the fold. Once done, spray paint it any color or leave it black and white.

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.
