I've decided to join in the Three Item Thursday linky party over at The Tattered Tag. It's such a fun idea and it makes you be thrifty and use what you already have on hand to make something cool! This week we had to use TP rolls, fabric/burlap, and clothespins.
I didn't know for sure what I was going to do once I made the background using the toilet paper. I ended up just making the rosette and some other stuff that went together to make it work. I decided to make it a little spring-y as our house doesn't have much spring to it - if you could say it's spring, since yesterday it snowed!
The main background piece is made of toilet paper rolls that I cut up in about 1 centimeter pieces, glued together, and spray painted black. I used this tutorial here.
My fabric is used in the rolled rosette flower.
I used a mini clothes pin glued to the background piece to hold a cute little bunny that makes me think of spring!
All the other items are simple embellishments I had on hand.
For the items I used to make this, I think it turned out really cool. I want to make something like the lady who did the tutorial for the toilet paper art with a frame in between like that - it looks so awesome - kind of expensive, actually, but it's so cheap and easy to make! I really enjoyed making this and plan on doing more of these things. I know Christina from The Tattered Tag would love if you would join in - you'll have fun; I know it!!!
Have a wonderful day!
