Yardstick ornament
I am making quite a few items for a fall crafts show here in October. I found this idea from Pinterest last year. I purchased a vintage yardstick at a sale (they are hard to find). There are plenty of thinner ones but you need the wider ones to decorate.
Also you need the scrabble tiles from a scrabble game. It was fun coming up with words to describe Christmas that would fit on a 5" piece.

Thanks for sharing your creative idea. I'm glad it contains blue.
I look forward to reading your comment on my blog.
Happy Blue Monday, Ann.
Cut sis!
Great idea!
adorable and festive :)
Blue is my favourite colour. You are talented in ways that I am not. I don't think I've ever contributed even one thing to a craft show, but I do love reading about and seeing your creative projects. I never thought of yardsticks as rare items, but I do remember the ones in the school I attended. I'll be noticing them now should I come across one :)
