Last Christmas I went into Barnes and Noble to spend my lovely gift cards I had received and I picked up a yearly planner (I'm obsessssed with organizers and finding amazing ones) that feature Gil Elvgren pin-ups! I absolutely love the 1940's and pin-ups in general and so I bought it! I carried it around and used it frequently and it was a great little planner to me until about May. I noticed that the pictures were rubbing off onto the pages and I'm far too obsessive compulsive to have DIRTY pages to write on.

I have a new planner now and so I'm left with this old one with brilliant pictures of pin-up girls. I want to decoupage the pictures SOMEWHERE but I don't know where! I have a cheapo Big Lots bed with a flat headboard that's ratty and could use some sprucing up but I don't know if I'd feel comfortable having half-naked all over my bed/I would get tired of it.

Any ideas for WHERE I can use these photos? Photo collage and make wall art? Bed? Coasters? I don't know what would work best. IDEAS? THOUGHTS? I'm so lost as to how to go about using them. I get good ideas but I'm not very good at putting them into motion. What a great crafter I am...

Example of planner photos: 1 and 2

Thanks for any help!
