Crafting with stickers?
What kind of crafts can I do with stickers? I have a lot of really neat and pretty stickers but I don’t know what to do with them. I don’t do scrap-booking so that’s out. Any ideas?

the only thing you Can do with stickers is to stick them
)
you just have to think of places they’d look good on. eg.
– make a picture/photo frame – have them all around the border, or along opposite sides, or in a corner. it’ll depend on the kind of stickers you have.
– similarly, you can decorate a wall mirror with them.
– cut strips from a transparency sheets [or use simple card paper]. apply the stickers to them & use as bookmarks.
– similarly, you can make greeting cards & gift tags out of them.
– on files or book covers
– on plain plastic gift wrap – it will enhance the beauty of the wrapping paper.
– if you have some plastic or glass bottles or jars, decorate them with stickers. then use to pot plants, hydroponics, as pen-stands, etc.
– depending on the size & type of stickers, you can use them to create a mosaic wall-piece.
– depending on the type of flooring you have, use them on the floor/kitchen/bathroom tiles in decorative patterns.
for all the above, you can use some poster or acrylic paints [depending on the surface] to fill in gaps or to enhance the cohesiveness or add some more details.
if you have some stickers in pairs, stick them back-to-back along a string. use these as chimes [if you add bells, pipes, etc], mobiles/suncatchers or “curtains” [add beads, CDs, mirrors, shells, etc.]
hope these get you started

all the very best & have fun
- Refrigerator magnets. All you need is just a magnet sheet or dots.
- Use it to decorate frames or pictures.
- Make button pins. When you find a design you like, cut it in a circle sized to fit the button you’re making. Most “blank” buttons come with a template for sizing your item. If you don’t want to cut the actual item but want to use the pattern, use a scanner to copy it onto paper or make a photocopy.
- You can use the stickers on wrapping paper.
- Stick your stickers on a white foam board and make cut them out. You can basically reuse them as stickers again. Just get glue. You can stick them on notebooks, boxes, etc. and they look much nicer.
