Have moved onto some purple socks now.  Since one of my daughters has asked me to make her a pair, too, I consider them a success!

18 AprRecycled VHS tape bookends

Inspired by “Crafting with VHS Tapes” from Craftstylish, I made these bookends that feature two of my favorite Howard Keel movies:  Seven Brides for Seven Brothers and Kismet.  I actually used some old exercise tapes for the vhs tape part and just used the covers from the Keel musicals because I wanted to keep the tapes themselves.   If I get tired of those covers, I can always just slip over a new pair.  Easy directions and only uses a few commonly found materials–try it for yourself!
