Container Recycling
 Gather together all the supplies you will need: One empty container (I used the container from the silk flowers I use)
One piece of 1" wide patterned ribbon
Two pieces of 3/8" coordinating ribbon
Two coordinating fibers
Xyron Create a Sticker
Craft glue
Peel-off pearls & QuikStick
Embellishments that go well with the ribbon you chose. In this example I used bones and collars with pink rhinestone stickers.
Scissors
Instructions
 First step: Measure the 1" wide ribbon to fit completely around the container.
Run the ribbon through the Xyron. Wrap around the middle of the container
Note: Be careful when removing the ribbon so the adhesive sticks to the ribbon and not the paper.
Repeat the above process for the two 3/8" ribbons. Wrap them around the top and the bottom of the container.
Since these ribbons are smaller you can put both through the Xyron.
Second Step:
Use the glue and add the embellishments in the areas between the ribbons.
Be sure the thick end of the marker is the one in the gun or it won't work correctly. You might also want to do a test spray on a piece of scrap paper first.
Third Step:
Tie the fibers to the top of the container.
Examples of other containers I have done.
