In 2nd grade back in the Stone Age, our teacher sent a note home asking our mothers to send a dozen eggs to school. This was a month before Easter. During Art class (remember when students had ART?) , the cooks boiled the eggs and peeled them carefully. Next, we planted seeds in the egg shells. The egg garden was our Easter present to our parents. Think I'll do this with our grandchildren next Spring.

I’ve saved egg shells from my girls; different tones of brown, blue, etc. to do art projects. Your ideas would be great for my eggs.

Hi, really enjoy your videos. Is it possible to use the clear shelf liner method that you used on clear glass for metal as well? Thank you.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Yes, absolutely

Loved all your embossing on tp! Can you tell me where you got your tag punch???

[@OurUpcycledLife]

I actually found it at the thrift store

[@citigirlqueens6242]

When you paint the inside do you seal it with anything? If not, can you put liquids inside after it’s finished? If yes, what do you seal it with to not deteriorate the painted inside?

[@OurUpcycledLife]

You cannot put water on the inside of a stained glass. It will just melt off.

[@staceygoff952]

Could the TP sheets be mod podged onto a bowl or ceramics?

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Sure could

[@glendacox6540]

Later, when you’re tired of the color of the wall, you could roll new color over the tape and then pull the tape off

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Yes!!! You sure could

What Is junk journaling exactly?

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Junk journaling is a creative form of journaling where you use a mix of found, recycled, and everyday materials like old book pages, magazine clippings, and fabric scraps to create a unique and personal journal. It's a highly customizable way to document memories, express ideas, or create art.

[@carriewh]

What about using Kleenex instead of toilet paper, that way you’d cover the whole stamp for projects instead of piecing toilet paper?

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Certainly!
