American goodies.




Today i recieved another lovley item. This time from Joanna Sheen!! A big thankyou to her. Her item has joined the list of things to show.

While in America i picked up a pack of 10 red biros for about 30p which i plan to decorate. I also got a pack of 15 pencils to decorate and 15 mini frames for approx £1.50 in a craft sale. I have made up the pencils to show you all. So simple but effective. Glittered, foamed shapes attached to pecnils with pipe cleaners! You can do so many different things with just these simple pencils!!!
