** i think i'm addicted to making headbands ;0) **

Oven Mitt:

The Xyron Fabric Adhesive worked great to hold all the layers togther while i was stitching the designs in the front & back of the oven mitt pieces prior to sewing together.

Canvas Corp + Xyron + Sassafras + GW Find = Memo Board

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Love when i find something at Goodwill that i can repurpose, cut some Canvas Corp Chalkboard paper to fit half of corkboard to serve memo board as a dual purpose, my Xyron adhesive worked great to adhere everything.

Just need to get the perfect picture printed for the frame portion ;0)

Made the pushpins for Sassafras stickers placed on chipboard, then i cut them out & glue dotted them onto a thumb tack.
