Recycling

bird card decorated with a strip of recycled corrugated paper

Ok, so hands up everyone who have ever felt you have too much waste! I definitely have and even more so since our daughter was born. One thing we have tons of is baby food glass jars. This got me thinking. How can we make use of these instead of throwing them out? One way is to use them as candle jars. I filled mine with bee wax and decorated them with birch bark hearts.

On the same theme I also gave new life to two old wooden boxes, left by my granddad, by decorating them with patterned paper.
