A NEW BFF..INTRODUCTION & FEATURE

I've met some great people in blogland and some of them have great talents.   This is the case here and I wanted to share with you someone from blogland.

This is Leighann of Beads Buttons Bubbles  http://beadsbuttonsbubbles.blogspot.com/.   I recently won a giveaway and it was one of her pieces.  Can you guess what this is......





Yep.....It's a bowl made of magazine pages!  How cool is that?

My teenager wanted it and my 10 year wanted it too...but this baby is going on Mama's desk in the work area once my makeover is done.  


As many of you know I love re-purposing items or up-cycling as many of you call it.   Either way RRR is the way I try to go when I can.    This girl has some amazing items made from items she has re-purposed.

Take a look at some of these pics, but visit her on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/pages/beadsbuttonsbubbles/98674921681 or over at her Etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/ShenanAgains?ref=pr_shop_more and check out all the creative items she has created with stuff you wouldn't imagine.


Love these too for my girls rooms!




So cool...for summer with some turquoise sandals...




These are just too cute!



I'm a fan of the rosette...love her fabric choice


Modern take on cameo ring...


These are made from a fork....say what???  Yep



You can visit her on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/pages/beadsbuttonsbubbles/98674921681 or over at her Etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/ShenanAgains?ref=pr_shop_more and check out all the creative items she has created with stuff you wouldn't imagine.


I hope you all enjoyed meeting one of my new blogging BFF's.    In the upcoming weeks I will be sharing some of my new found friends from blogland and fellow artisans form Etsy.  I hope you will show your support.

  3. Love the magazine bowl! I have 2 in my home. In fact, I found a tutorial on how to do these last year and had my 3rd and 4th grade students do them for an Earth Day craft project.
