Have you ever thought of designing your own exlibris?
In principle you can use an eraser stamp, but I couldn’t carve my name in this.
Perhaps it’d be better to use blank cutting blocks?! ;-)

Doesn’t the tealight look most beautiful?
She‘s been cautious and inserted an electric tealight, if you’re very cautious, you can possibly even use a real one.
By the way, if you want to cut such a tealight yourself, my online cone calculator could possibly be helpful ;-))

I don’t really like door wreaths, but even though I won’t make it and hang it on my door I find the paper leaves wreath somehow beautiful :)
It was made originally for Christmas, but I think that it could as well be a spring or summer wreath with green paper or an autumn wreath with paper in brown, red and yellow.
And with papers like those for the place mat it looks presumably great the whole year long :))

That’s sort of the mini version of the rolling pin print ;-)

Every time I see these bracelets I’m thrilled
I didn’t like her ‘old ones’ very much, where she simply glued paper on the cardboard tubes because I find them too massive, but I find the ones with the opening really great!
I still must have such cardboard tubes somewhere, then I only need some wall paper rests or other colourful paper.
Perhaps the paper from the travel brochure? ;-)

What do you do if you want to make microwave popcorn but don’t have a matching container at hand? You fold a paper bag! ;-)
I like the idea.
And popcorn!

I cut myself some eraser stamps already and even an eraser stamp with a repeated pattern, but if I try to print a background pattern from stamp repeats I always have problems.
The entry about spacing stamps helped me further :)

If you haven’t decorated your walls already with the yarn wall art you may want to try the paper rolls wall art ;-)
And if it’s not quite your cup of tea, you can make from your toilet paper rolls e.g. simple napkin holders, a cord holder, recycled gift tags and/or a hairpin lace loom ;-))
