And the first sale at Papercut Kitchen not only ships free but gets a free goodie too! So read below, get to stalking and good luck!

Giveaway #1: Upcycled Paper Bag Album
I love making these paper bag albums. Not only are they super cute with all their pockets and flaps, but it's one small thing I can do to help make the world a better place. The covers and tags are made with reused product boxes and the papers inside are scraps from my other paper projects. Use as a brag book, a journal, recipe book...whatever your little scrappy heart desires!

A New Purpose

Tonight I received a lovely convo from fat face creations letting me know my Please Read Responsibly bookmark is in a treasury of hers called A New Purpose full of fantastic upcycled etsy finds. I'm honored, thanks! Be sure to check out the treasury (you can click the image to get there) and be sure to stop by fat face creations to check out all the wonderful items in her shop made from her original photography.

You Say Upcycled I Say Recycled


There's a crazy new word floating around the art and craft community, upcycled. Well, maybe it's an old word and I've been living under a rock somewhere but as the go green craze continues to grow (yea!) so does the need for people to up the cool factor. So now there's this word to make artists and crafters feel artsier and craftier, I feel like a goof using it but when in Rome...upcycle, upcycle, upcycle. So I have some (re)upcycled items in my shop. Some of my paper bead bracelets fit this moniker and at the moment I'm adding to those green items by making bookmarks and tags out of product boxes. I think my favorite thing about these goodies has been naming them, too much fun and they fit right in with my paper hoarding tendencies. So here they are, some of the latest additions to The Beehive, and I've already sold one of the beer box bookmarks!
