Do you need a 10 cent gift?

04/02/200904/02/2009 K Hutchinson

As some of my on-line gal pals and I were talking about how much stuff we have. I said, I really would not need to buy anything for the rest the year other than adhesive and white cardstock. I suggest we do a cardboard, chipboard, or coaster challenge.

This is what I came up with using coasters, chipboard, and a fork!

Then to display it I took a fork from the thrift store that I got for 10 cents and made a holder for it! This would be cute and fast to do as a little photo frame too! You take the outside fork prongs and bends them back and the middle two prongs you bend forward. Yes, it is that simple!

Have a wonderful day! Thanks for stopping in!

Hugs,

I even stayed an extra year in high school to stay and play in the art room with my favorite Art teacher, Mrs. Belling. Mixed media is something I am really loving to play with but then I enjoy doing anything art related. I am still search for my niche in art. Hopefully someday I will find it! Maybe it will find me!

Very cute!! I’ve seen thes forks used as hooks on the wall too! Years ago my mom made chimes out of thrift forks, knives and spoons that she flattened with a hammer, drilled a hole and fishing line through… very cute for an eclectic garden.

Very clever. Love the fork stand! Now I’m going to have to search some yard sales for forks…or raid the kitchen drawer…
