Hello Friend!
I found these birds at the local Garden Center.
They had texture like hand carved wood.
I think they may be made of resin or
some kind of solid plastic material.

Hello Friend!

Hi friends!
Spring is here and I can't
wait to be in the garden!
After planting I saved the empty seed packets.
I made these mini journals for a Garden Party Boutique.
They can be used for garden notes and thoughts or artwork.
The fronts of the packets have beautiful photographs.
I just cut the packets open on 3 sides.
Then I glued paper to the back and trimmed with scissors.
These are very simple to make and don't have
many steps.
I used my sewing machine to stitch around the outside.
I like the look and it gives a little strength to the cover.
For the inside-
I save scrap paper-
These half size sheets are the bottom half of my eBay labels.
My sister gave me these large seed packets below from
a trip they took to Canada.
The packets were a thoughtful gift.
I planted the seeds and saved
the packaging.
They will make a special keepsake journal.
Here's a close up of the garden
information.
The Butchart Gardens
My sister said it was a beautiful
100+ year old
English Garden.
Has anyone been there?
Thank you for being here today!
I appreciate the visit-

Hello My Friends!
Most of the Craft and Dollar Stores have
some chunky cut outs for Spring!
There are so many ways to decorate these.
I used this bunny cut out because
he can stand on his own-
I also needed one of these tiles from the Dollar Tree.
Then painted the entire bunny with white acrylic paint.
I used a damp cloth to wipe paint off on some areas.
The gray raised areas show through.
I put the bunny on a shelf along with a gingham jar
that I painted a few years ago.
Here's a tutorial on my Jars, in just about any color!
With some of the scrap pieces I was able to
cover a wooden heart-
to hang
and the roof of a small birdhouse.
These tiles are so easy to use!
I recommend you give them a try.
Thank you for visiting!
