Happy National Transportation Day!!! We love all things transportation at my house; it only seemed fitting to celebrate this fun month with a steampunk style transportation blog hop. I assembled my favorite bloggers to bring you leslierahye's By Land, Air or Sea--A Steampunk Inspired Blog Hop. 
For this hop I upcycled some book paper, a paper lantern and a mini pale from Easter holidays to create this fun steampunk inspired hot air balloon! This will serve as a fun decoration for my daughter's room.
Thank you for stopping by my blog hop! Please take time to see all of the wonderful creations from my fellow bloggers!!! Thank you for celebrating National Transportation Month with us!!
What a fabulous project for your hop Leslierahye. I am sure your daughter is loving that it is for her room. One question I have and zoomed in on your photo to see is how the balloon part is staying up above the basket? See not only is your project fabulous but its fascinating too! Great Hop! xx
ReplyDeleteMorning Danie! This is one of the fabulous paper lanterns from our dollar tree. I have cover the handle and hook at the top [normally plastic] with the same kraft paper as the "basket" with some fun Dazzling Metallics Festive Green paint from Deco Arts...it hangs by a little hook... :) I hope that helps!
DeleteThis is so creative- how iconic steam punk! Love how you altered those dollar store items
ReplyDeleteTotally Steampunk and spot-on for the trasportation bloghop. Love the bookpage collaged hot-aire balloon...oh the places it will go and the stories it may tell. Thanks for hosting another fun bloghop :)
