Welcome to day #2. Another great term I saw as I was surfing the web for definitions of going green was the term “TRASHformation” I love this. The thought of transforming something that might have ended up in the trash.

Today’s  first project fits that term – this old tin could have ended up  in the trash but we “TRASHFORMED” it.In addition the flowers/leaves and vanilla cardstock were all from my scrap bin. The big shot dies are a great partner for using up scraps.

Recycling #2 – These glass jars were used at Valentines – new candy, new tags.  The larger jar also features something I call “Jar Wraps” instead of adhering things right to your glass jars making it harder to use them over and over I create a wrap for the jar.

Recycling #3 – FRAME – I repurposed this old frame to hold my Jelly Bean Prayer.

ORGANIZATION TIP #2 – Small Scraps. I have a “scrap station” that has 4 buckets – 1 for color scraps, 1 for in color scraps, 1 for DSP scraps and 1 for mini scraps. This bins are labeled for ease of use and accessible. I always reach for my scraps first when punching, using the big shot, making samples or tying something out. The “scrap stations” is also accessible to attendees at my Crop & Crafts and my team events held at stamp world. I also take my buckets of scraps to crops for our “MY SCRAPS ARE YOUR SCRAPS” stations.

Stop by tomorrow for my Repurposed Placemat Apron!!!
