I bought the one below with the bird on it. They measure just 4" x 6". Of course I couldn't just leave it as is...so I added a bit of embellishment/doodle - just to add my own touch.
Below is a picture of the back inside cover (opened up)...I love the collage work already in it.
I just added a few items, back of doll head, black/white label, black and white strip and round dictionary circle. I think I'm also going to apply some beeswax to the cover. I can't wait to start using this new calendar!
At the same gift shop, I also picked up some shea butter lotion - just loved the packaging...
It smells wonderful ;-).
Tomorrow, the girls and I are heading up to Anna Corba's house in Santa Rosa for a Holiday Adornments workshop. I've really been looking forward to it, and I've got my supplies already packed. I went to Target this afternoon and found this adorable small cosmetic bag - in my favorite colors too!
It actually works perfect for carrying craft tools and such. I also found this smaller flat case I couldn't pass up.
So, don't forget to look in the Health and Beauty section for great craft bags.
Have a great weekend!
I like how you embellished the calendar - so sweet. And I love the packaging of the Tokyo Milk Shea Butter ...I think I'll have to get me some of that. Thanks for all the great tips and ideas!
