dangling postcards ~

something i've been wanting to do for a long time...
step 1:
gather postcards, photos you've taken, pages from books
{i was so excited to find these Anahata postcards in Mombasa the other day, i also used some i'd been saving from the bowerbird stories at finders keepers last year}
step 2:
also collect scissors, string/lace/ribbon, a hammer & eyelets-i like to get the gold eyelets from Spotlight because they're only about $3 & come with the tool, sticky tape...
step 3:
deign the layout lengthways & also decide what you will layer on the back


step 4:
lay the two papers back to back{sometimes you will only need the one if it is coloured both sides} & poke a whole with the scissors in the top & bottom


step 5:
place the eyelet through the pages & hammer firmly until secure
step 6:
tie together with bits of ribbon
step7:
sticky tape to the roof
{you could stick a fabric flower or bow at the top to cover the tape}
step 8:
enjoy!
:)


i'd like to write quotes on the back of mine where i've used blank paper...



i also want to make a photo chandelier with photos of the family & attach the layers around a few gold hoops...
hope you have a lovely weekend!!!
