Recycling Crafts - Valentine Shadow Box #crafts #diyprojects #homerenovacion #remodeling #homeimprovement #renovation #diy @verefazer

Cardboard Doll house
Recycling crafts are a  passion of mine more so because it gets a lot of  appreciation from my hubby to whom most of my other projects merit just a "hmm"!
I hate to cut up pretty paper and to feel better about it, I converted a cardboard box into a shadowbox in this recycling craft

I cut and glued the flaps of the box to make the compartment of my shadow box

I used pattern paper to  line the compartments of the box in this recycling craft.

My daughter claimed the shadow box as her Valentine present and promptly upgraded it into a doll house.

I really managed to stretch a single 12 x 12 sheet of pattern paper here..I die cut it, punched it, cut borders out of it and also used it to make punch craft flowers

Most of you may be knowing how to make one..but I made my first pin only recently and was surprised how easy it was.
Stick Pin Tutorial 
Choose a long pin the kind with a bead or crystal on one end. Add jewelry caps and beads and the trick here it to secure them firmly with a dot of hot glue so that the beads dont fall off!
