Magazine Flowers - Upcycled Craft

Have a stack of magazines?  Need a quick bouquet for a special occasion?  These paper flowers are just the ticket!  A little folding, cutting and gluing and you'll have a bouquet that will be sure to make an impression.  Watch the video below to see just how they're done.  Spray with color to match your decor OR pick colorful magazine pages and see what happens.  I added some glitter to mine to make them even more special.  Use what you have, my sweet friends, and always MAKE YOUR MARK!

I spray painted these with shimmer misters from DecoArt, but you could
just use colorful magazine pages!

Fringe the folds...It's so easy!

Save the day with a paper bouquet!

Lacy Paper Hearts - Upcycled Magazines!

My first craft as a kid was quilling...I liked it, but I got bored quickly and moved on.  Many years later I started playing with magazine paper because there was always so much of it.  These hearts look like they might be made of quilling paper, but in fact, it's rolled up magazine pages.  Yup, the gossip rags I devour weekly are now beautiful Valentines!  Take them apart and you'll find out that Jen might be back with Brad and Scarlett was spotted with another man.  This upcycling project is a great way to help save the planet and show someone how much you love them!  

Happy Valentine's Day!

 Sprinkled with glitter and gems!

Light blue ribbon makes everything look fancy!

Spread the LOVE!
