Handmade Recycled Flowers
ByThis fun tutorial is provided by Avina at weScrap!
My LSS gives these lovely brown paper bags when we shop there. I’ve always been conscious of the waste that goes into packaging and try to make use of everything I get including the paper bag. Here’s how to make them!
First I take off the handle.
Then I apply a blob of glue to the paper bag.
Next I wind the handle around that blob of glue and work the handle into a circle.
Then you’re done! Just cut out and stick to your projects! It even looks a bit like a Prima flower!!
Here is are some of the flowers on a layout:
Here is a sample that was done on a card by Colleen Lovette:
*Colleen didn’t have a paper bag with a handle she could use so she made her own strip to wind up using the paper bag itself! Great tip Colleen! You earned a ballot for the draw for that one.
Don’t they look awesome?!
