We're re-purposing these plastic containers that once held fruit.
First a blah...
Now a Tada!I turned it into a Christmas ornament!
I cut around the plastic, leaving a half inch lip at the top. I glued the half-circles to make a ball and attached some string and a ribbon at the top. I used letter stickers to spell out festive words and holiday wishes.Just a friendly warning: keep these plastic ornaments away from the electric lights because they are a fire hazard. (The photos here are for demonstration purposes only).
Wow claire, I really like your reycling idea and tada!! Nice blog!! Thanks for dropping by! =)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Sweetakery!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I bet those look lovely with the lights lite behind them!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog today Chelsea!
ReplyDeleteThis is good in many ways!!!, because you can even put some stuffing in them or paint them, and the kids wont break them (which to me, is the best part), I will be sure to try this :) thanks Claire! x
ReplyDeleteYou are right Nuit -- you can stuff them with light materials like confetti or sequins to make them more fun :) Thanks for visiting today!
ReplyDeleteI think that this is a great idea! You could even put stickers on the inside of them!
ReplyDeleteGreat for my kittens to play with! What on earth was I thinking about to get two kittens at this time of year!
Hello Alice in Wonderland! I think your kittens are adorable! They maybe a handful but I know they bring you a lot of smiles :) Stickers inside these ornaments...wonderful idea!
