Been playing around with more garland. Got this idea from the holiday issue of Country Living magazine. The base of this garland is a piece of twine. And tied to it is about a jillion strips of scrap cloth! My mom and I made this one. We especially liked the shimmer created by the sparkly tulle and metallic double knit polyester material! I see more of these in my future ... they're not just for Christmas ... wouldn't this be beautiful on the pews for a wedding?!
Such fun!!! Would be great for Valentines with some red and pink strips thrown in. Black and orange for Halloween, Purple and Yellow for easter, and......and.......

Hello! I'm Trina and this is the blog for The Paper Flea Market (which is becoming Jubilee Flea next month!) My online store and studio specializes in paper + fun old stuff. In addition to being a shopkeeper, I'm an artist and paper enthusiast. I adore paper and old things and see potential in everything. My artwork includes greeting cards, art journals, mixed media pieces and clever handmade home decor, and has been published in "Country Living", "Somerset Life", "Art Journaling" and "Greencraft" magazines. My cards were included in the book "1000 Handmade Greetings" and can currently be found at specialty boutiques across the country. I also sell my work at pop-up boutiques and flea markets. Please contact me for show dates and locations and for wholesale card orders at thepaperfleamarket@yahoo.com
