Recycled Christmas~

I love to do recycled crafts especially at Christmas~  This one I found off the internet and decided to try it myself~  It is done with old song book pages, or old books.  Just tear the pages in strips...mix a little of water with some elmers glue and use a paint brush to brush on then lay the strips on.  It's somewhat like paper mache'.  We have all done paper mache at some point rather it be a school project with kids, a pinata for a birthday party or crafting Christmast balls~ lol    This was so fun...and cost me nothing~    I used some old balls that were a little on the shabby side and covered them with the paper.  I decided to put it on a cone Christmas tree I made with white garland and added some black feathers for a wow effect~  This was a great way to spend a rainy afternoon~
