Paper Earrings

Artin Xhoroom Paper Earrings

Sigh, aren’t these earrings beautiful?
My various I-really-must-try-this- and I-really-must-have-this-lists are growing further.
;-)

Addendum of June 15, 2010: I got a nice e-mail where she told me that there’s a video with the folding instructions.
Many thanks!

Paper Sun Mirror

This sun mirror is extraordinary, as I find!
I have to chose an appropriate book on the spot ;-)
Although the pages from the travel brochure from the paper shopping bag should look great, too!?

On the next occasion I’ll have to try it ;-)

Colourful Safety Pins Bracelet

I Am Momma - Hear Me Roar Colourful Safety Pins Bracelet

I really like the colourful safety pins bracelet!
I find it more interesting with the safety pins than the paper bead bracelet where the paper beads are hold together from elastic alone.
Making paper beads really is simple, especially if you use a (self-made) paper beads roller.
You can even give the paper beads a slightly different form if you like to or make the beads from fabric.
However, it’ll be an interesting and beautiful item ;-)

A propos: If the style of the bracelet seems familiar look here ;-)

Paper and Plastic Bottle Baskets

redsemillaroja Paper and Plastic Bottle Baskets

I have here already a lot of tutorials and inspirations for items from plastic bottles and from recycled paper, but I think that this is the first combining both ;-)
Anyway, I found an inspiration where they make baskets from recycled paper and plastic stripes.
They are made similarly to the basket coiling but with different materials.
I find some of these baskets most beautiful!

If that’s not your cup of tea check here whether you find other baskets that you like ;-)

Cord Holder

Do the cords lie around everywhere? Simply cram them into a toilet paper cardboard roll on the wall ;-)))
I find this idea simply amazing!
And as creative as we are we surely can embellish the tube ;-))

By the way, I have more things that can be done with cardboard tubes ;-))

Wrapping and Reducing Polymer Clay Canes

PCC Wrapping and Reducing Polymer Clay Canes

I wrote before about reducing polymer clay canes, here they’re talking about how to fill flower canes with ‘background’ and reduce them without damaging the flowers.
I did it myself in the same way and it worked great, you only need some patience.
