From some of the projects that I have been sharing here and here, you would have realised that I have a thing about quinoa and textures as part of a creative project I thought that I would make a series of mini frames that you could use in different ways. You could use them in and on your journal or cards, or a range of other projects.
I wanted to create antique type look and having old photographs within the frames enables you to achieve this effect. There are many royalty free images that can be used that you can find on the internet.
I guess I have found the quinoa to be quite versatile in creating surfaces but also as edging as once it is dry it becomes really hard. For the one below I tried out linseed's.
For some of the mini's I used a combination of polymer clay, stones, clay and friendly plastic.
There are so many beautiful things that can be made using recycled materials, the only problem I am finding is running out of space either from the things I have been collecting to make something else or the things I end up making. There will be lots of handmade gifts being given at Christmas this year:)
I hope you have a blessed weekend, and allow your creativity to push back the boundaries in order to allow yourself to really soar!
Come back on Tuesday to see how I make the Mini's in Tutorial Tuesday. Do share creative ways in which you have used recycled materials and leave a comment below.
