Trying Something New--Number 1!


As we meander a Path of Positivity, we are talking about numbers this year! Of course, you can share anything positive you like, the theme is always optional.

Remember, you may share any sort of artistic medium over at PoP:  writing, cards, journals, scrapbooking, painting, sewing, baking, needle crafts, etc as long as it is positive.  The theme is always optional.  

This month we are inspired by the number 1 or first and making a project for the first time!  In other words, try something new!

Be sure to visit Path of Positivity for a description of this!  My project is a bookmark for students at school!  This bookmark would also make for a great teacher gift!  This is a very easy and inexpensive project perfect for mass production; think students, community choir/band, friends, grandchildren, colleagues, volunteer gifts, etc.  

Check out the video below for more information!

    Hi Katrina! I love this beautiful bookmark idea, as it's practical, easy to do, and gender neutral. I like making little appreciation gifts for the vestry members of my church, as well as for my extra small staff, so this is perfect. A little cross or shell bead would be perfect for me to use. Thanks for visiting my blog and blessings!

    What a wonderful idea to make a bookmark! It looks so simple, yet it has such a great effect. And I think it's fantastic that these beautiful embellishments can be used. A great suggestion! Thank you very much and also thank you so much for sharing this lovely project in the current Critter Crazy Challenge.
    Hugs, Uschi
