Paper Roses

I am so excited for you to be here with me today! It's all about paper roses and what to put them on!

It all started by me wanting to learn how to make paper roses like everyone else. As it turned out, it is a lot easier than I thought! Wonderful you-tube videos out there explaining everything for you.

Then, I saw this really cute box on Pinterest. I knew they would be prefect for my paper roses. I was on a mission to make this box, however I searched high and low looking for a tutorial on how to make it. No such luck! So, I figured it out on my own! I think they are the cutest little boxes! They hold one tea light per box. I thought you could use them for 'wedding favors', a little 'Thank you' gift. You could put whatever you want inside. They are 2x2 square with a depth of 1 inch.

DAY 5

Welcome to Day 5 of my Project week! I hope some of these projects are helping you to get your creative juices flowing to make something pretty!

Today I have for you a Tea Bag Holder. I know what most of you are thinking, "you don't drink tea, or anything hot for that matter!" No, I don't but some of my friends, neighbours and customers do. (I had to borrow the tea bags from a neighbour! Don't worry she will be getting this little beauty for her trouble.)

This would make a really cute Birthday gift for a co-worker or friend, Mother's Day gift, Get Well Wishes, Thinking of You, Teachers gift, School Bus Driver, etc. Just a few ideas for you! I got the idea from here.

I guess I should have opened one of the envelopes to show you the tea bag inside! Oops! Trust me, there are 4 (one in each of the cute little envelopes).
