A while back I saw this "modeling metal mesh" at the dollar store, and it looked cool, so I bought it.
I haven't done a single thing with it since then. Wait, that's not true... once I used it to display earrings to photograph:
Here's what the package tells me about it:
100% aluminum
DIAMOND MESH
1/4" (6.3mm)
1 Sheet 16" x 20" (406 x 508 mm)
It's so helpful it even says "Ideal for"
Structure for clay
landscapes
floral design
home decor
Yeah... I still have no idea what to do with it.
I'd love to hear what you would use it for!!

You could use it to make a display for your craft fair this weekend - clip your flower bobby pins & such on it. I'm also trying to remember where I saw it recently, but someone used something similar over paint chips to make cards & it was pretty neat. I'll try to find the link.

I have NO idea what to do with that. Apparently, I haven't turned on my creativity center in the brain yet. ;) But I'm excited to be a new follower and see what you might come up with.
ReplyDeleteI think it'd be fabulous to give an old picture frame or vase a new modern look. Very industrial chic!
ReplyDeleteIf you have some old picture frames, or a vase that you're not using, simply wrap around and give them a whole new industrial chic look. Super fab!!!
