Well for us crafty chicas & chicos isn't it always?
For today's tip I wanted to share that you should save any stray game pieces you find & use them in your crafting.
Game pieces are so fun, whimsical & interactive. I know most of you have seen crafters who have taken Scrabble letters to spell out their blog names & creative things of that nature. It sure looks great!
Well, why not do that & more with other game pieces like the ones from playing cards, Life, Monopoly...I mean who doesn't love that car or the thimble? How about Dominoes or bingo chips. We have definitely seen the bingo numbers replicated & sold as a crafty embellishment and it works.
So next time you are out in yard sales, antique shops, second hand stores or just cleaning up your little ones' messes. If you find stray game pieces-KEEP THEM.
Then find unique ways to incorporate them into your fabulous projects.
Until next time...
Merry Christmas Sonia...I hope the holiday was wonderful for you!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful idea...I've seen the scrabble pieces used too but I never really thought of looking at yard sales for pieces to use or alter. I'll definitely approach the next year sale with a different "eye"!
Have a wonderful day!
