Blog giveaway box Day 2

Hi everyone, I had a very good response to my giveaway box so far, and today I am adding more to the box. Every comment and  share per day up to Dec 23 gets you another entry in the giveaway box. I've also decided to add Facebook comments as another entry (1 per day per group) I am sharing this post within several groups so if you are a member of more than one of the groups you can comment on them all for entries into the giveaway. 

So here is what I've added to the box today.

Vintage greeting cards, a pile of landscape photos (great to cover and make into journal cards) a pile of miscellaneous papers,  a bag of assorted bits, some paper bags, and a pile of ribbons trims.
 
 
 

This is a whole tray full of scrapbook bits and pieces, lots of embellishments. There will be lots of fun surprises in this tray, all packed into a large bag.
Everything bagged up to go in the box.

 
As you can see, a long way from full!!! Stay tuned for more added maybe tomorrow.

Finished project

An hour later and I have finished beading this fibre snippet. It is approx 18 inches long. To be used in my "I dont like purple journal personal challenge". Each bead and sequin has been double knotted on both front and back side so that I can cut this up in pieces for my journal knowing the beads wont fall off. Yes its lots of work, work I wouldn't have done in my normal day life because of time. But with covid, I think I have found more patience, I certainly have more time,  and I really enjoyed having my coffee and working on this little piece. I will make more, maybe just not purple. ;p

Sequins and beads tip of the day

Note to self....
Or tip of the day...
Do not attempt to work with tiny sequins and seed beads right after cutting your  fingernails.... almost impossible to pick up. Arg..
