SHOW AND TELL FRIDAY!!!

Kelli graciously hosts this show and tell each week. I hope you will stop by and visit her and some of the others participating!! Click here for more: http://www.kellishouse.blogspot.com/

Today I just have to share these bows!! My 10 yo daughter made these and I think she did a great job!! Her 27 yo sister showed her and her cousin how to make them the other night, and she just keeps on making them.!!! They are made of out strips cut from magazines, and a small brad and that's it!! The possibibilties are endless!!



This is the larger one, and she created this "flower" design herself!







This is a Christmas countdown or Advent calendar I bought at Target for my granddaughter. She loves checking it on the days she's here for all the fun little surprises. Target has other styles on a pretty good sale.




I just threw this up on the hutch before the Keeper's of the Faith girls party we had here yesterday. It usually adorns my dining room plant shelf, but I don't know if I'm going to get anything up there this year!!




Have a fun-filled Friday!!
Blessings to you all,
Becky

    I love all things upcycled and repurposed so this fits right in with our lifestyle! I'll be adding upcycled bows to all our gifts.
