it's a new week bloggers - filled with new creative opportunities! i read several of your comments asking me what i found during my antique scouting and i thought i'd share a pic of one of my favorites. among the vintage postcards, old radio, books, and random trinkets that i discovered, i found these... a collection of mini paper cutters! these are all about 8" square, old chippy paint and wood, rusty metal blades, and at $10 each, i just couldn't resist... my wheels were spinning when i brought them back to my studio and i knew table space was a minimum so there you have it - wall art. i hung this trio up and found the perfect spot, talk about meant to be? i have a busy week here at home but i have some cool things to share on the blog so don't miss it. until then...t!m

Ooooh! Very cool find! :)

I found one like your green one in the "school" 24x24 inch size about 20 years ago at a rummage sale for only $1. Boy has it been a workhorse for me ever since on my studio cutting room table. You will find those old steels really do still cut!! And they can still be sharpened easily too with a hand held whetstone or blade sharpener! Enjoy!! They look great as you did them for wall art!

Very cool. They were just meant to be right on that wall! Kismet.

So did your wall background inspire you Distress inks or did your Distress Inks inspire your wall background? :)

Sweet! They look great displayed on the wall, too.
