"Recycle It" at Whimsical Designs

Hello Crafty Friends,

 

Welcome  back for another Whimsical Wednesday.

 

Today we have a new challenge and it is a wonderful opportunity to reuse some of those old items you may have laying around in the kitchen drawers. I asked the other DT members what they were using and I was told...toilet paper tubes, bottle caps, coffee stir sticks, etc. Hmmm...that got me thinking...maybe I could use birthday candles or straws.

 

Here is my "Recycle It" project...

A little treat for someone so sweet! Just need to decide what type of treat.

Any suggestions on your favorite candies?

 Matching tag

I bought this container of black and white flowers the other day at Michaels since it was on clearance ($2.99 ~ regular $9.99).

I dusted the inside and outside of the container, and then removed the label. A strip of red card stock and pattern paper now decorate the outside along with a Spellbinders and apple.

The top is covered with matching pattern paper and a shadow lays underneath. Polka dot ribbon is tied to the handle.

 Materials:

clear paint container

red, black, and white card stock

school paper

Give a Hoot Cricut cartridge ~ apple

red and white polka dot ribbon

red and white twine
red and black inks

Hope you will join us this week at Whimsical Designs for the "Recycle It" challenge. I am looking forward to seeing what you will reuse to reduce the amount of debris going into the landfills.

Can't wait to see what you create!
