WHITE

There were 2 things I thought of when I saw the topic "White" (after snow, of course!) The first was White Sandy Beaches and the second was White Collar. The second was probably due to my kids' new favorite show, "White Collar".


WHITE SANDY BEACHES



WHITE SANDY BEACHES
This is a bit unconventional tag. I used a shell for my tag (this probably isn't even allowed!). I drilled a hole in it with my dremel and proceeded to do the same to a variety of shells. I attached them to a fine waxed cotton cord and then attached all the cords to the shell. I used a piece of jute as the tie to my tag. I also tied in some fishing net that I put white distress stain on and a bit of white paint (when the stain didn't show up).I also glued a mini starfish and mini shell onto the net.The first picture shows the full tag , while the second is a bit of a close up. I hope you enjoy these! Mary Ann




WHITE COLLAR

White Collar
I used a simple tag and a variety of white (and shades of white) buttons to make this tag. Being the non-seamstress that I am, I used a hot glue gun to attach the buttons. Quick, simple and fun!
