Non-craft Craft Supplies: Drawer Pull & Rub-ons Paper Weight Project

This paper weight was made a few years ago with one of my favorite non-craft related craft supplies, drawer pulls!  (To see my Top 10 products in this category, see my original post here.)

I simply took a 4 x 4 x 4 inch wood block, painted it black, and added photos of my family using modge podge.  The drawer pull is then added to the top after adding retired Stampin' Up! rub-ons for a little extra detail across the top.  I love to use rub-ons when I am working with painted surfaces.

I think it may be time to remake this project with some updated family photos.  Wouldn't it be a great project to do with our Love-Impressions Rub-ons to high light the love I have for my family?  Or a few images from the Bright Delights Rub-ons?  Or maybe the Sweet Stitches Rub-ons for my 'cute as a button' daughters?  Don't forget Stampin' Up! rub-ons when you are working on painted surfaces!

Happy Crafting,

Noel

I wonder how many of us crafters/artists have our own supply of hardware on hand? I'll need to share more of my uses and hope to hear of projects others are using theirs on.

What a sweet paper weight. I totally love the drawer pull on this. Functional and just a touch of whimsy. I have some decorative drawer pulls sitting around and I think they might have found their purpose for being here now!
