Paper Button Garland

I was bored tonight.

So I made this.

I got the idea from MY BRAIN for once. Lately it’s been hard to come up with an original idea, what with Pinterest and the Internet in general and my sweet creative friends kicking around. This is sooooper easy, and probbbbbably doesn’t require a tutorial, but like I said, I’m bored 😉 and it’s all about me, after all.

Enter: Supplies of Craftiness! I made another lil banner out of those vintage flash cards up there, but I will post about that some other time. Right now we need to focus on the task at hand. You are so distractible, aren’t you?

Here is where we get aggressive. Violence really IS the answer sometimes. Punch the heck out of some pretty card stock. It probably deserves it.

Then punch some more.

Paper-punching is so therapeutic. I use it to take my aggression out by thinking about things that bother me, such as the fact that I can’t wrap presents or drive.

Now! Get stringing!

Thisssssss lil number would be so cute in a girl’s room. Or above my crafting area/temple along with all the other exciting decorations I have planned!!! I can’t wait to share them with you 😉

Okay, that was way too easy and short of a tutorial so I’ll throw in a little somethin’ somethin’ I rigged up the other day- My daughter ‘organized’ my bathroom- she put all of my stuff on one side of the counter and all of her stuff on the other side. While she was sleeping I made a couple of mini collages to decorate this new arrangement. Here they are for your viewing pleasure:

And on that note, GOOD NIGHT! I’m going to be dreaming about buttons tonight…or at least cheese-shoes again…
