Ok girls, I have a little challenge for you all this fortnight!
Long gone are the days when everything we used on our work had to be acid free, I for one love that we can use just about anything on our pages. That's why I'm making this little challenge for you....
          Using Home Decor
If you're worried about using non-acid free products on your layouts, place them away from photographs or place them inside memorabillia pockets. They can really make a unique embellishment for your layouts or OTP projects.
Here's my example:







For this layout, I've used three decorative pebbles at the top left hand corner of the photo. I've also used small rocks I gathered from our fish tank, I've glued them down with Pritt onto the chipboard flowers to give them a 3d look.
The black leaf is also a home decor item. I've got a bag full of them I found at a House and Garden store!

Materials used from 123 Store:

Patterend Papers - Little Yellow Bycicle Vita Bella - Feather Scroll and Green & Blue stripes, metallic
Little yello Bycicle Vita Bella - Fresh Verse Cardstock stickers
Scraplets Floralets, Bird.
Kaisercraft pearls, pale green
Kaisercraft rhinestones, green.
Kaisercraft rhinestones - black
Kaisercraft rub-ons - Flower Border
12x12 chipboard sheet
Versa Inks - Black, Orchid




Own stash

Home decor items
Black velvet ric rac
Cuttlebug machine
Basic Grey Alphabet stickers - Sultry
Button
Bella gold ink
Ki Memories, lace cardstock

I hope you give this a go girls!!
TFL
Monica

Ours is just the right height to fit toys, books etc. You name it - it's hiding under there! The kids think it's Christmas when we sweep it out.  Grin
