Time to celebrate!

Hi everyone! Today I'd like to share a little something that I made to join in with the Lessology 2nd birthday fun! Yes, Lessology is now 2 years old! I'm super excited that I am able to join the party because I love to up-cycle items and that is what Lessology is all about! Yeah!
 

 
Can you guess what I up-cycled? For the base, I took a paper towel roll, cut it down a tad, painted it white, wrapped it with tissue, tied the ends off and then added my embellies. For my up-cycled embellies, I used a strip, from a lemon bag, a vintage check, and a strip from a Prima flower package.
I'm ready to celebrate, and can easily tuck a sweet trinket inside by untying one of the ends....how easy is that!
 
Here's some close-ups:
 
 

 
Would you like to celebrate with us? Come take a look at what everyone has made thus far.....soooooooo inspiring!!!! If you'd like to enter the birthday challenge, you can find the details here!
