For The Love Of Paint Chips





I may be obsessed with paint chips.  I cannot stop making things with them. How cute and FREE are they though??  I am starting to work on my daughter's birthday decorations and adding a few personal touches to our bedroom.  This is what I have accomplished so far...and yes, all for the love of paint chips :)

    I can spend hours looking at paint chips, but then i just love color. I had never thought of using them in a craft though, very fun!

    I love your paint chip art! The pink/red banner is so cute. I recently read in Country Living's February issue about making valentines using a trio paint strip in shades of pink/red by stamping I♥U or XOX (one letter or symbol to a chip) leaving the entire strip in tact.
