bottletop clip frame


first ever ATC I made many years ago


"art thoughts" another one of my first ATCs




first daffodil today in the garden



Decided to alter an old frame with bottletops recently. I have removed the broken glass and glued a small bulldog clip to the back..this I have covered with a brass heart and some black ribbon. So dont throw away any of those old frames where the glass might have broke as you can still use it as a sort of clip frame..here it is holding some of the very first ATCs that I made. The lovely pictures in the bottletops are from Palma Rea's etsy shop here..love her art.

What a clever idea - and so beautiful. Are the little pictures in the bottle tops from your works of art too

It's such a lovely cheerful framework - you couldn't help but smile if you saw it each day.

That's a great idea. I love it. I was collecting bottle caps to make an ugly stick. but have way to many, maybe I'll try one of these. Hugs from across the pond as we say here.
