Picture this...

I'm still at a loss for what all I should sell at the craft show. I don't want too much product but I also don't know what will sell and what won't. I ran to Michael's thanks to them sending me a coupon for 50% off one regular priced item. There really isn't anything that I "need" or "want" for that matter. While wandering around aimlessly trying to find something to spend my coupon on Sherry and I came across some small wood block picture holders. They were plain wood with Christmas pictures on each side. I thought they might be perfect for altering. Whether they will sell at the craft show is beyond me. I tinkered around with one and added a bow to the top near the swirl that holds the picture. I took the picture before I added the bow as you can see. If they don't sell, I'm only out a dollar and scrap supplies. I'll then turn them into X-mas gifts for someone!! haha.. beware...if one of these ends up in your mailbox after the craft show, you'll know why!

That's really cute! Good luck with the craft show, I've thought about entering one here but think it'll be too much with school and stuff.

You are so thrifty and crafty. I would have never thought to alter something that already was decorated like that.

I love the little cube. Could you make one with photos on the cube as well? I would also put them in a cello bag with a tag to make them ready to go. Love the altered letter too. Are you taking orders? If not then use letters that stand for other things like C-create, P-peace, A-adoreable. If you put the words with them then it gives them other ideas.

I wish that I had the time for a craft fair.
