Haphazard Miscellany – Feb 2024

 

Never really figured out a permanent name for this category of oddball stuff, so I’ll just label it as a random collection and slap a fancy name on it and be done with it. Like it or leave it, makes me no nevermind…

 

DIY projects

 

 I love crafting and DIY stuff, but some of it is just plain crap. Like this chandelier made from the bottoms of 2 liter bottles. I can’t imagine going to the trouble of making and assembling this. And keeping it dust-free? Fuhgeddaboudit!

 

 

Yes, this is a wall hanging made from paper chains. Might be a cute craft for a kindergartner to make for their room. Once it gets all yucky and dusty, you can throw it out and make another. But this was in an actual article about “Cool DIY projects for under $50.” It extolled the wonderful way to do an inexpensive accent wall. (face palm)

 

 

Wine glasses made from old Barbie bodies…no words…just…no words.

 

 

OK, I have to admit this one made me chuckle. Wine bottle nativity. You can have as much fun emptying the bottles as you can in assembling the scene. 

 

 

Strictly for a kid’s bathroom shower. Could be switched out for other types of heads as well. Cute idea.

 

 

I have seen SO MANY of these kinds of embellished mirrors/picture frames with found objects as well as with specific themes. Sarah has made several mirror/picture frames with sea shells that are quite lovely. This one ain’t.

 

And speaking of mirrors:

Random Thought –

You can only buy used mirrors…
