Festive & Fragrant


Hey, hey, it's Friday.
Happy first day of October also!

We've been prettifying fabric softener sheets
all this week, and I've got one last idea:

Blah: used dryer sheets

Tada! Festive party decorations inspired
by these Mexican paper flags:


A pair of scissors is all you need to make
these random cut-outs.

{I wanted to add colors to it but the ingredients in
the dryer sheet kept from absorbing my chosen dye.}

And because these sheets are still fragrant even
after use, your party space will be
smelling good, too.

Have a great, great weekend!

  3. Oh so pretty and smells good. I need to do one of these dryer sheet crafts. We have a half used box that I can't use anymore because it gives my kids eczema. This would be great!

  5. I've been following your blog for a while now. :) This is the first time I commented... I just LOVE this idea.
    Your blog is pretty sweet. I liked the necklaces, too! :) I have a special use for paper towel rolls - Maybe I'll write a post about it and link to your blog! Would you like that?
