The snow fell again, covering the neighborhood in a layer of powder. I love snow. I love winter, too. But I'm not too fond of the cold weather. To deal with this "situation", I switch on some happy thoughts -- flip flops, summer dresses and flowers. It's a good thing I've got this new book I bought over the holidays:
It contains 25 festive and easy crafts to
keep one occupied, especially when
stuck indoors on a snowy day.
Paper+Cup is the baby of Truman and Minhee Cho
who also own Paper+Cup Design, makers of stationery.
Too bad I missed the book signing event.
And because I have my thoughts on flowers
and all things related to warmer weather,
I decided to make this flower gift tag.
I'm recycling red tissue paper {from a Christmas present}.
Cut a rectangle and fold it in half.
Cut out some petals.
Roll it up into a tight coil & attach it to a
piece of wire with some tape.
Wrap a strip of green paper to cover the
wire {use some glue} and add a leaf,
where you can write your message.
TADA! An instant flower to keep or give away.
This is cheering me up already!
Good idea Claire. I never know what to do what that used crumpled tissue paper..now I know:)
