Just a crafty night.
Well, tonight I was inspired to do a few more very simple projects from Big Ass Book of Crafts for the Crafty Daisies Book Club. Here they are! Enjoy. And check out the Crafty Daisies Book Club Flickr Group for other people’s work!
Five paperweights I made using rounded glass chips and bits of magazine, book and dictionary pages. Love how these turned out. Inspired by Big Ass Book of Crafts. Page 219.
Handheld mirror with a young Frank Sinatra image on the back. Inspired by Big Ass Book of Crafts. Page 230.
Revamped Ikea votive holders. Four holders turn into two sweet little votive holders. Inspired by Big Ass Book of Crafts. Page 207.
Revamped Ikea votive holders. Four single holders turned into one taller classy votive holder. Inspired by Big Ass Book of Crafts. Page 207.
Can’t wait to see what the next book will be! It’s nice to have a reason to do projects I might not normally have done. Thanks for the inspiration Crafty Daisies!

Glad you like the book and these projects look terrific! I’m working on another one. BTW, The Big Ass Book of Home Decor is out and I think you might enjoy it. Again, love your projects.
