Mayzie's craft tip of the day!
Jun. 10th, 2003 04:20 pmThis is my first time posting something I've made. I just did it yesterday, but I've had the idea for a while.
I'm big on collage, so I have tons of pictures I've cut from magazines. I used to store them in little letter size envelopes, but my scraps were getting too big, so I went and bought an accordion file with 12 folders. It had months written on each folder flap, and I tried to write over them with a silver sharpie, but it just looked awful. So I decoupaged over the flaps. The red folder has a red flap, the blue folder has a blue flap, multi-colored has a flower flap, etc. It works great and looks really cool. I'm going to collage the outside too, I just haven't gotten around to it.


The files with no collage are words and animals, because I haven't found the right pictures yet.
