Pegs!

Hello friends

So I'm definitely having a little fixation with pegs right now!

I mentioned applying washi tape to pegs - so easy...

This is a mini gold peg that I picked up in a Christmas card
hanging set in 99p store.  Any washi tape will do.


Cut a strip and apply.


Flip the peg over and trim carefully.


And that's it! 


Another idea - use regular wooden clothes pegs and spray them with inks.
I prefer to take off the metal spring part, spray the wooden pegs and when
dry reassemble them - watch your fingers though!
I've decorated these with Classic Scalloped Hearts.



These are 'rambling rose' pegs - gorgeous!
I didn't decorate these but ....
I couldn't resist purchasing two sets - one for me and one for...
a lucky winner!


So same drill please - just leave a comment and a winner will be picked out next week.

Take care friends, I'm back very soon...
probably when I've eaten even more turkey leftovers!

  5. Hi Christine
    I had to chuckle , I once called you my tag Lady because you made such beautiful tags do you remember ? i think maybe i will be giving you a new title ermm let me see, My Peg Lady perhaps ? haha.
    The pegs are really lovely Christine , your scalloped heart ones look really pretty ,i have the grandchildren over later so we will have a go at decorating some pegs later i have plenty of washi tape and it will keep them amused .
    We finished our turkey last night , made a bubble and squeak and threw in the turkey after cutting into small pieces ,gosh it was lovely not as good as my Dad used to make i might add but it was close .
    Take Care

  12. Lovely pegs and really like the rambling rose ones. You could also stencil the pegs for a different effect and use serviette/napkins to decorate too. xx hazel

  14. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas with your family Christine. I'm a bit late getting back to looking at the blogs. What a wonderful idea with the pegs and not too difficult - must give that a try soon.

  15. Hi Christine,
    I love what you've been doing with your pegs. I've got loads of old wooden ones in a drawer somewhere, so when I can find them I now know that I can transform them into something really rather pretty. The roses pegs you found are just delightful, so pretty and bright.

  16. Hello Christine
    Some great ideas with pegs today. We use them at school to display the childrens' art work. It is also a great of drying them. By using the pegs we don't damage the art work in any way.
    Enjoy your turkey
