Inspiration: Vintage Dictionary Gift Wrapping

Hello, a few weeks ago I bought a vintage dictionary for R5 at a little stall in Zoo Lake.... yes, I couldn't believe my luck! Immediately I started dreaming up ideas of how to use this little treasure. In this example I carefully tore out three pages and glued them together with double-sided tape to make one big piece. I wrapped the gift and made a bow out of old film. {You can see step by step instructions here on how to do it}. I then glued another piece of the dictionary paper to cardboard and cut out a tag, punched a hole and voila!

What re-creative ideas have you been up to lately?

Happy Weekend, Love Liezel

Feature: NEW Vinyl Gift Stickers

Hello!
I LOVE wrapping gifts... and always try to come up with new ways to re-use and up-cycle. I designed these pretty 'Vinyl Gift Stickers' {in Afrikaans & English} with fun wording that can be used for Birthdays or as Thank you's...It is now available in my on-line shop at R20 a sheet of 6 stickers.

I couldn't resist this past weekends' Jubilee Edition of our English Newspaper. {I must admit it is the first Newspaper - except the pretty Chinese ones - that I have bought in ages}. The bold print of Queen Elizabeth was just too pretty and the perfect backdrop for my new stickers in combination with the Bakers Twine that I bought from the KAMERS on-line shop. {You can read that article here}.

Have you been up-cycling lately?
Love
