Crafty fun with recycled trees

I love this project...right now we are using these cute trees as part of our fairy forest. This is a great recycle craft for all those old brown bags.

We saw this neat idea in an craft book at our local museum. I think they look lovely and can be made for all four season. Just take a paper bag, cut 3 inch strips at the top, open the bag, and then twist 2 strips together until they all look like branches. Glue whatever leaves or flowers you want on the branches. Have fun!

FREE Museum Days in your state.

If you have a Bank of America card, it could be saving you money this time around. They offer free museum days in most states. In South Carolina we can get into a really cool kids museum for free called Edventure (just found out that it's only for the card holder and the first weekend of each month), but still not a bad deal.  Be sure to check out your state here and enjoy!
