CRAFTING TIP OF THE WEEK (#103) Paper Clips

Happy Monday Bloggers!

Today's tip is a quick one.
I just wanted to share that you could turn an ordinary paper clip into a fabulous embellishment by simply adhering anything to it. From buttons to flowers to die-cuts & more.
Take a look at how I converted some of mine:

These I made using existing recollections stickers I had on hand & a butterfly.



This is a close up of the pig clip being used as a book marker but you can use it to embellish your scrap pages, cards or other paper crafts.



If all you have are office supplies on hand you may want to start looking at them differently and seeing what ways you can convert those clever working tools into something crafty too.

Until next time...
