Looking forward to Easter, I wanted to have baskets for the kids that they could use all year long. I found these ice buckets at Target in the dollar bins (they were actually 2.50), perfect!
Then with my cricut (the greatest gift ever - last year : ) ~ I cut out my babies names. I wanted to see just how contact paper would work instead of using the vinyl sold in the cricut dept. and it seems so far to do well!
I used white contact paper bought at Wal-Mart.
I think they turned out pretty well!
Only time will tell how well these letters will hold on. Brody decided he wanted an owl on his and I put a butterfly on Kayla's.I do hope to get more posted this week!

That are so fun!
ReplyDeleteWow, contact paper. That is probably a lot more economical! We have a cricut at church, so I will try that. Thanks for the tip. I have 5 children and as they were growing up, I purchased plastic buckets and wrote their names on them. Each year they were put on the kitchen table the night before, so the Easter Bunny could fill them. It was a fun tradition and saved on the buying of baskets each year, so I like that your little ones will be able to use them all year. Lezlee

ReplyDeleteI've never heard of using contact paper instead of vinyl before - what a neat idea!
