Little Potato House Boxes

One of the first people I ever "met" through blogging was Sunghee. She creates wonderful templates and is so imaginative. She can take one template and make a dozen different things. So I was really happy when she opened her store "Little Potato House." I decided to try a couple of her templates for boxes for Halloween goodies.

This one is made from her Animal Box Car template. I decided not to put the wheels on as I plan to fill it with goodies and ship this off to someone. I hope it doesn't get too banged up in the packing box.

I love the detailed lid of this--the scallops and the corners. It comes with a plain lid too. It's easy to assemble in minutes but doesn't the lid look so fancy?

This box is her Book Shop Card Box. I made the larger one and it actually is pretty big. I was able to fit a small pouch, a couple of bookmarks and a little board book with still more room to spare.

I love the lid of this one too. It's detailed but still easy to put together.

Thank you Sunghee for creating such fun templates, and for sharing your ideas! You are one thoughtful and generous friend!

I think these are the last of my Halloween projects. Hopefully I'll be able to move on to Christmas projects this weekend. I'm hoping my PTI order comes tomorrow--lots of fun new things to play with.

Thanks for reading and have a great weekend!

I second that! The boxes are so cute (as opposed to "coot"! I had a little somebody who wanted to see what I was doing on the computer.

TGF 3rd Annual Customer Blog Hop

Hi! After finishing up these 2 projects for TGF's Blog Hop , I've come to realize that I am kind of addicted to stamps, especially TGF stamps. Hehe. Okay, I will not babble on too much since there are lots of other blogs to check out as well. I made something for both categories, Holiday and General. First up is my Holiday card. I recently acquired Hippie Anya! She inspired me to make a "peace" card for the holidays. But then I had to add Fleur Anya for "love" ... and 80s Anya for "joy." So great that these stamps could be turned into something Christmas-y. My General project has been swimming in my mind ever since I made that counting book a while back with TGF stamps as well. I thought I could make an ABC book too. But I didn't make this into a book. More like flashcards, I suppose. My youngest has a hard time recognizing lower case letters so I thought this would be fun for him. All stamps are TGF. I ...

I glued that tag onto kraft cardstock and used my ruler to cut a 1/8th inch border aro...

upcycling Pokemon wrappers

Hello everyone! I am back with my latest sewing creations. I have been playing around with plastic wrappers! I've seen those upcycled plastic wrap bags and purses (usually made from Capri Sun package juice) but never really paid attention to them or how they were made until I saw this tutorial using the wrappers from Pokemon cards. My boys love Pokemon cards and were just throwing the wrappers away but I started saving them and collected enough from their recent birthdays to make a couple of items. Here is a little coin pouch (didn't want to call it a purse since it's for my youngest boy and he'd probably not like that). This little pouch was made with 4 wrappers, 2 in front and 2 in back. It is a bit tough to turn right side out because the wrappers and contact paper get stiff. But it's possible and looks really neat! I made it so he could hang it from the inside of his backpack and also carry around a little bit of emergency...
