INSPIRATION FILE FRIDAY

First of all, I want to start out this post by announcing another winner in my

Vintage Stamped Ribbon Giveaway!

I have tried in vain to reach my second winner and so I decided to pull another name.  So, congratulations to . . .
Susan of Homeroad

Your package will soon be on its way to your front door!

Now, on to my inspiration file for this week.

Green Craft Magazine is one of my favorites!  Even if you don't use an idea directly from the magazine, you get ideas just by thumbing through it.  Here are some of my favorites from this issue.

This would be a cute little place marker for a children's table at Easter . . . or Halloween . . . or the Fourth of July . . . or Christmas . . . . . . .

 Recycled materials make a great bag to take to the grocery store.

Another great market bag.

 I wish I'd saved all those old wooden spools through the years.  How could we have known that they'd soon be made of plastic?!?

 I'm a sucker for labeling of any kind!

 A great valentine garland that even little children could help with.

 What a great dress form "dress"!

 Complete with paper/fabric? jewels!

 A pretty paper package topper.

 LOVE these!  I'd love to make a set of these for my next luncheon!

 More great paper gift toppers.

A very cute pin cushion - complete with button holder.  Reminds me of the one I made for my niece a while back shown below.  I need to make more of these . . .

Just looking at all these photos make me want to start making stuff.  But, tomorrow is a day to finish up a big project that I hope to have up on the blog by evening!  So, that's it for today!
