I'm a Cover Girl!



I'm a cover girl!  One of my projects is featured on the cover of the recently released Handmade Home Decor, a special issue from Paper Crafts magazine.  My project's the twine wrapped candle holder you can see at the bottom of the cover.  I'm honored to have a project selected to be on the cover.  It's been so exciting to see a magazine cover with one of my projects on display in craft stores and regular bookstores!

It's a super simple project that dresses up a plain glass vase/candle holder with twine.  To give it a spring look, I added a pair of felt flowers made with a die from The Cat's Pajamas.  A little lace adds a girly touch that is a nice contrast to the rough texture of the twine. The pictures in the magazine are much nicer than my at home, amateur photographer ones, I promise.  This issue is full of great ideas for things you can make for your home using the paper crafting supplies already in your stash--be sure to check it out!
