Plastic Garden Plant Pokes


Last week I had a brainfart and bought some plastic garden T-tags at a local dollar store. They come 10 to a pack.

I will probably do a step by step tut later next week once hubby returns to work after an illness.

I painted some of these and then stamped on them, this one I just used scraps of paper, a flourish stamp, some stick on pearls, and of course a beatiful Asian geisha image on an inchie.

These of course should not be used for outdoor plants as the water will disintegrate them but for indoors in a plant as I have here in my Africal Violet really makes you take a look.

So if you need an idea for a party favour, planning on a little cupcake birthday surprise, need a little sign in a painted skate that you are filling with a bit of greenery, then these are great little quick and easy ideas.

Again I will do a little tut next week so you can see what I do with them. I even added some rub-ons to some.
And Kathy if you are reading this today....put a few little quilled flowers with a printed verse from the computer.

Keep those scraps you never know what you can use them for....I have.
