I saw this idea at Christmas time
but never got a chance to make any
so I decided to revisit it for Mother's Day
what you need:
apply mod podge
roll in Epsom salts
Let dry
Wrap and you are done!
I think they'd be cute
tucked into a basket with bath salts
body scrub etc
A very economical gift
especially if you get
the candles at Dollar Tree
While cleaning out
my craft room drawers
I came across these
Aleene's Shrink-it
hearts that
I shrunk over 5 yrs ago
I added some pearls that I had
from a necklace I got at a yard sale
I got 4 handmade paper note cards
at Dollar Tree
and added some embellishments
pre-cut out daffodils (from Dollar Tree)
some skeletal aspen leaves
and plastic pedals
a pre-made butterfly (3 to a pkg at Dollar Tree)
I got 4 cards for $1
and had the embellishments
from other projects
Great ideas, you are so clever! Thanks for sharing.
