Okay today we head off to the smallest room in the house for our next challenge. The bathroom is a treasure trove of bits and bobs if you'll just look at what you find in a different way. Below are our takes on what we've found in our bathrooms.
Lusi has used round cotton cleansing circles and a pink rubber wristband she found in her bathroom.
Alana has used a cardboard toilet roll to create this cool Chrismas bon-bon. When I showed my son this he spent the whole day making them with patterned paper and my ribbon stash!!! lol
I (Lu) have used a Panadol Rapid purse pack which is a little plastic folder that opens up, covered it in felt and used my daughter's hair ties to hold the insert pages in place.
Cass has used band-aids, cotton gauze and safety pins from a first aid kit as well as white strips of cotton from a home waxing kit.
Please excuse my terrible formatting - I'm still getting used to Typepad!!!! lol
We're down a contributor this week as Jill has more than a bit on her plate right now but we'll be sharing her bathroom challenge later in the week. We've also gone a bit off the page as you can see and Cass and Lusi again come up with 12 x 12 gold with their layouts for this one.
As per usual, there will be a RAK for our fave of the challenge so get rummaging girls! Layouts are due to us by midnight 14th October 2007 (AEST).
Leave no beauty case unturned, no leave no square of toilet paper unconsidered, hmmmm did someone say an old toothbrush makes for a good paintbrush?........oh don't forget those hairclips!....hey what's that under the sink????
Go on girls, make a beeline for your bathroom and make the ordinary extraordinary!!!!
OMG !! you girls are excelling yourselves again !!!! LOVE THEM ALL !!! OK...I think i can make it to this one too !! :) will keep you posted when it's ready !!
