Ribbon Wreath

Christmas wreaths are good ideas for presents, decorating your house or decorating at work.  All you need is a blank wreath, ribbon, glue dots, and Christmas embellishments.  First, wrap the wreath with ribbon and secure the ribbon with glue dots.  Then adhere a picture where you want it with glue dots.  Then emblellish!  Easy right?

I made 2 pictures wreaths.  The one of me and my son, I am going to hang in my cubicle at work.  The one of my stepsister and stepmother, I am going to give to my step mom as a present.

Pins and Paperclips!

Aren't we rocking the Practical aspect of our site this week?!?  I hope you're enjoying it as much as we are!  Here's another day full of items we all have in our homes or easily accessible...pins and paperclips.  We even have a video  that I made from our first year of Practical Scrappers (in fact it was our first ever video tutorial here!) with a fun idea for embellishing your paperclips.

Projects with Staples

Here at Practical Scrappers, we are always looking for fresh new ideas to reinvent those common supplies you already have lying around the house. Today, we'd like to highlight one of those items-- staples. I am sure all of you scrapbookers, card makers, and crafters have a stapler somewhere in your house. So I have a little poll for you to answer...




Now that you've answered the question how about we take a look at some of the projects our readers and design team came up with using staples on their projects...

Did you have a project that used staples and you forgot to send in?  Leave us a link to your project in the comments or just leave us a comment telling us your unique way to  use staples.
