I don't like the wood on the lazy susan to get scratched or suffer from water. In the past, I've appliqued a couple different mats for the lazy susan.
I've decided that since the girls and I love to batik that we could make mats for the lazy susan, which would save me from having to figure out where to hang our artwork. The mats you see below are our cooperative efforts (I do the gluing but we share with the rest).
This one we can put on after Thanksgiving for Christmas (we aren't quite satisfied with how this one turned out and we might try again).
The next mat we can use after the beginning of the year as we strive to survive a long Minnesota winter.
I will be sharing at:
These look awesome.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea to have changeable mats!
ReplyDeleteTurned out wonderful! What a great idea to make a lazy susan mat and change it up for the seasons.

Melissa, thanks for the support. It's been a long 20 days, but a very rewarding time.
ReplyDeleteThese mats are stunning. I followed the link to your other blog and then on to the tutorial. I am inspired! This is definitely something the girls and I will do. I really love what you are doing here and enjoy visiting. I never leave without inspiration. To me, that's what this is all about.
Blessings, Debbie
That looks like fun! We are also experiencing a MN winter- at least it feels like winter already with all the snow we have gotten this week! We are loving it except for the slipperyness of the roads.
ReplyDeleteThese are so neat!
