Easy and Green Mother’s Day Gift

April 27, 2009 by FaveCrafts Leave a Comment

A clever Mother’s Day guest project I’ve just posted at FaveCrafts will make you ask, “Why did I not think of this before??” Jennifer of Ramblings of a Crazy Woman turns old jewel cases (CD cases) into a hanging picture frame.

I love this simple gift idea because:

  1. Mothers do indeed love anything to do with pictures of their kids
  2. It recycles unused plastic, instead of adding to plastic waste.
  3. It will cost you next to nothing! You can use scrap fabric, ribbons or buttons to decorate the frames.

Go check this project out and let us know what you would use to decorate these frames. Ric-rac? Lace? Antique buttons?

How to Crochet a Rope

I’m still chugging away at the ballet wrap sweater in double crochet. I’ve now finished one more sleeve. I keep getting distracted by embroidery and paper-bead aspirations, new recipes, and the first video game to which I have ever been addicted (I blame the boyfriend). I always return to the crochet eventually. This wrap sweater […]
