Junk Mail Recycling

This pattern is really great for use with junk mail or catalogs. This time of year there seem to be a ton of envelopestar.jpgthem in the mail box, try using this pattern to put them to better use, I think this would be a really fun for this year’s Christmas cards. Feel free to shrink or blow up the pattern to suit your needs.

I love these stars and I thought that I would try to work up a pattern for making them from catalogs and junk mail as well.

This recycling pattern could even be adapted for using up bills or other ugly mail that would be prettier as a star… kidding… kinda.

About the Author

karla_50x50.jpgCara Johnson - Beautiful Garbage is my creative outlet besides caring for my two daughters.
I’ve been playing with arts and crafts for as long as I can remember, I come from a line of crafty women. Growing up I watched my mother and grandmother sew, paint, embroider, and crochet.
I made jewelry through high school, had a chance to do lampwork glass and metalsmithing in college and since then I’ve been working, raising a family and stealing moments for art.

I’m so grateful for my sweet supportive husband and our very blessed life. I’ve had wonderful oppertunities to experience much of the US, Columbia, and Brazil.
