I knew I could use them for something in the future so I saved them. I found good use for them when I was in a jam for gift-wrapping a present and the only wrapping paper in the house was Christmas themed. I used two as “ribbon” on a present that I wrapped with brown kraft paper.
For an embellishment, I made a flower using leftover fabric from fabric I used to upholster Sun Kissed Boy #1’s headboard.
I just cut four circles in four different sizes, ranging from small to big. Scalloping the edges would also be cute but I didn’t think of it until it was done and I was pressed for time.
Then pin thru three little brads and fold the legs back.
Put some hot glue and place on gift.
Viola!!
I love re-using my scraps! I

Clever reuse of so many things. Looks great too.
I always try to save and reuse things like this, much to the hubby's chagrin, as of course the house is full of things "I am going to use" LOL
