Giveaway Day


My apologies, I am a day or two behind yet again and so today is a belated Giveaway Day. I'm looking for a creative home for these coloured wooden disks. They were part of a children's toy that I bought en masse from Ikea when I was desparately looking for a jewellery spike for my Hosier Bangles to send to Design A Space. I'd scoured the shop fitting outlets only to find that most of them were ugly, acrylic, hand-shaped devices and so was very happy when I found these and didn't have to resort to using toilet roll holders. So, does anyone have any useful or even simply decorative ideas for these remnants? I'll be sending out a Blink teatowel to the most creative suggestion but I can't promise to send the pieces - you'll have to drop by the shop sometime to collect!

Hi Sam - I think you could join the discs up side by side (sitting flat) with wire or jump rings, to make some fantastic bracelets and necklaces.

I reckon they'd look good strung up side by side on wire hanging down from the ceiling, as decorations. Or perhaps you could even make them into mobiles or wind chimes with the help of a few trusty bells.
