Outside the box

Hi Girls!! Happy Day to you all. I hope you all are having a great day. I must confess, I'm in a dry creative well today. So I think this will be a good time to go visit so many of you creative souls and see what's happening out there. In the meantime, I did manage to inspire myself enough to create a little sheet music box and embellish it with lace and a paper flower.



I also whipped out this paper mach e star wand. I made these last year for the art show and sold out. Funny thing was, "older girls" bought them in droves! Lots of Girls bought them for birthday favors and just because. A few of them actually was used for props in upcoming Spring plays. Who knew?

This was a quick and easy little project that was lots of fun to create. Now if I could just get everything else I need to do to be just as quick and fun...... ;)

Have an amazing day!
xoxo,
Ellen
