Our FOSTV Challenge is to alter an item.
My husband eats oatmeal every morning year round so I have plenty of
large containers! I thought they would make cute luminaires.
Its surprising how much light a med size candle will make
First I foil lined the inside of the container to make
it more fire resistant, then covered with dp.
I have used the snowman from the Holly Jolly Greeting set
from Mark's Finest Papers a Heinrich Co.
Tearing strips of white paper, adding in layers to make
the snow and adding lots of chunky glitter.

Using a soda pop can I cut out stars using the
Spellbinder star dies. I then cut star shapes out of the container and
added the metal star borders to cover the edges. Lastly using a
little hand punch I punched out the
added the metal star borders to cover the edges. Lastly using a
little hand punch I punched out the
tiny stars around the top. The snowflakes are cut using a MS punch
with a little glitter added to the centers.
Now be sure to look around
with a little glitter added to the centers.
Now be sure to look around
and see what you can alter and join our challenge.
