DIY is not my strong point.
And I’m certainly no artist.
But I do like to think I can make a pretty decent collage.

I’m a sucker for just about anything that leaves me feeling a) inspired and b) girlie…
(except for scrapbooking. cringe.)
…so cut-outs from old copies of my favorite magazine fit the bill for this particular collage.

Think you want to try doing the same? All you need is old magazines, scissors, scotch tape, poster board, and about an hour of free time. Enjoy

I love collaging!
You would think that just about anyone could do collages. Most people can, I, however, cannot. I have always been the absolute worst at crafting collages because I never liked my cut-outs to overlap…completely defeating the whole purpose of a collage!
I love making collages! When I graduated high school I actually made my friend fashion ones to put in her dorm room.
I used to make collages all the time and give them to my friends- using pictures of us and magazine clippings… They loved them! I really should start making them again…
My favorite is painting things to hang around the house … with friends … over a bottle of wine. Good times!
I love making collages too! But other than that I’m not too crafty. I’m love browsing through Martha Stewart’s DIY ideas though. A lot of them are so cute and clever!
Love your collages-now I want to make one too. I can make some different ornaments. Last year I made some as Christmas presents!
Your collages are gorgeous! I love making collages and jewelry but, other than that, I’m not much of a DIYer. I wish I was, though!
Your collages look sweet! I did a little collaging-type project about a month or so ago, and I’m very impressed by your awesome phrase finding skillz. I was seriously riding the struggle bus trying to find anything worth using. A+ to you
