Wax paper is a great art supply that is perfect for Valentine’s Day Hearts
I don’t think I ever thought of wax paper as a good surface for making art on or with but this adorable heart (perfect for Valentines Day) and the other ideas featured at the blog Craft Foxes have shown me that wax paper is awesome! It’s slightly clear and wax properties make it great. Pop on over to see all the beautiful ideas for using wax paper for art and craft projects.
Nifty, and pretty! An idea to keep in mind for the future, definately!
The curly lightbulbs have mercury in them, so I wouldn’t think it is a wise idea to try to use them for crafting!
The new energy efficient bulbs have higher levels of mercury in them (which is why they have to be recycled in a special way instead of just thrown in the garbage). Please tell people to make sure that their new bulbs are safe before cutting into them!
