Hi there all {including all of my new followers} I'm so happy that you all came along for the ride.
Just a quick post to share what I made the last couple of nap times. I whipped up some petite altered peat pots.
I have made altered peat pots before, like my Frenchy Easter Baskets from this post and actually have about 8 more of those to make before CS Day strikes (that would be Craft Show Day).
I picked these little peat pots up at a local Ace Hardware last month.
It was love at first sight.
They have "France" imprinted on the bottom of each one...I'm a bit of a Francophile so that sealed the deal for me.
I altered each one with some vintage images and/or some Tim Holtz Tissue Tape. It is the stuff left over from this jewelry project.
I filled each one with some glass marbles to add a bit of weight then added in a piece of floral foam and covered with peat moss. I had some black floral wire that I picked up at the dollar store a while back and I just cut it in half and curled the top of each one. Now they can be used to hold a picture of place cards.
Wouldn't these be great for place card holders or table number holders for a wedding. I can just see them all altered with lace or photos of the happy couple for a wedding.
Have a wonderful day!
