polaroid film is getting slightly expensive, no?!

Update week(s) was so fun, but all good things must come to an end... a pause. Booooo!  I have shared a lot with you guys over these past two weeks, and it's been wonderful and busy and challenging and rewarding.  Thank you so much for playing along with me.  Tonight, I'm sharing the last (and possibly my favorite) item with you... 

They come in packs of four: one original, one with buttons, one with crossstitch, and one with rhinestones + pearls.  I came up with this idea when I searched for some film for my polaroid camera and almost had a heart attack.  So I made these instead.  There are lots of colors to choose from.  Of course, my favorite is the original white. and the pink. and red. and orange. and grey....








I'm obsessed with these faux polas. The ideas are endless. Here's what I'm thinking:

pola minialbum (glue photos behind them and tie them all together in an album!)
pola frames (in scrapbooks or in actual photo frames with a photo glued behind it)
pola on a stick (think of the photos!)
pola magnets (stick a magnet on the back and put a photo behind it.)
pola garland (string them on yarn across doorways and walls.)
pola ornaments (tie a string around the top)

I couldn't resist playing a little tonight... can you spot the polas? :)










I can't wait to play around with these some more this weekend. I'll certainly share what i make with you... promise to do the same for me? :)
