Gum tree organisers



While walking during the week Master D and I collected bark and leaves from some local gum trees. Their scent is delicious - makes me feel like I am in the bush.


When we got home I pulled out a couple of tins and Master D got decorating, while Little Miss Q played with some of our supplies :-)


It was a bit of trial and error to get our them to stick. We tried glue and wrapping them around the tins, but we didn't have much luck keeping them in place.


We ended up laying out masking tape and putting our bark and leaves on it, before wrapping it around the tins.


Now we have great paint brush and pen holders!


Happy crafting, Kelly
