OK Crafters, sing this next part to the tune of Queen's Princes of the Universe.
Here we are,
stuck in our house with no craft supplies.
Born to be Queens of craftiness,
We've been here too long.
Fighting to survive the darkness of boredom.
Ok, so maybe that is a little too dramatic and all but in the times of COVid19 we have to take our fun where we can get it. So we are going to hit up the recycle bin again for some materials. You need TP rolls and any other round cardboard food containers you can find.
You will also need scissors (and possibly a fine hand saw if your cardboard tube is really thick), hot glue gun, primer spray paint and spray paint.
Step 1: Cut your recycled containers into strips. A TP role can be cut into six segments. Use a hand saw or something for really sturdy containers like a peanut container.
Step 2: Use the hot glue gun to glue them into flower and leaf shapes.
Step 3: Arrange them into larger configurations.
Step 4: Spray with Primer.
Step 5: Spray with color of your choice. Metallics or black wrought iron for a classic look or fun colors for a cheerful decor.
Hang on your wall using small brads or even tacks. The completed project is very light but may need several placed in strategic locations. Send Pics! I'd love to see them!
