I just learned to make glass jewelry. I think I’d try to include some of that. What fun.

Not a found object, but wouldn’t it be so cool to make party favors – of the person whose birthday you are celebrating! Or for a bridal shower – of the bride or groom! Or for class reunions! The list goes on. !!!

How fun! I would use them on special Hi note cards I send to my family members. Also, would use them on new spools of thread to give a smile to some of my sewing friends.

Thanks for a chance to win.

How cute! I would use them on my note cards I mail to family to put smiles on everyone’s face! I could also see using them on thread spools for little gifts to other sewing lovers.

Thanks for letting me enter. I am now going to follow this blog regularly.

Ohh, I might be able to use some of the Lego’s all over my house for this fun project!

Thanks

these would make a great paper doll chain garland across the mantle, and I have a ton of odd bits of ephemera, mostly playing cards collected here and there, that would likely be what they would end up on. I’m in for the book (when I was a kid, I loved those little pop-out, fold and insert tab, etc books…in particular, I remember a pioneer “wooden” fort with Indians and Calvary)

Megan, thanks for dropping by my blog and for your lovely comment!

The found object I would turn into a Fantastique is a Bingo card of course (one of my favourite items to use in my art work). I have a paper doll in my published works on my picturetrail http://www.picturetrail.com/cindymcmath that was published in Somerset Studio awhile back – the body was a vintage playing card, which was fun to work with too.

How fun! I might like to try something like this with some random playing cards.

I have a couple of hundred CD’s I found at a thrift store. Old AOL trial CD’s. Anyway, I’ve used them to make crocheted coasters and I have a lot left to use for SOMETHING! ALSO, the first thing I’d try using would be the tags from Margaux’s collar…my 9-year old mix-breed dog. She died on July 3.
