My DH has been busy in his studio lately and has created these charming little snowflake fiber art tags:
The tags are approximately 1 inch square with holes pierced in each corner – perfect for stitching into a piece of fiber or mixed-media art, added to your scrapbook or even made into jewelery! The large snowflake has been etched into the copper. The other tag with the three small snowflakes have been hand-sawn into the metal, just leaving the outlines.
To enter the contest, just leave a comment explaining how you will use the tags in the comment section at the bottom of this post. Don’t forget to leave a valid email address – I can’t contact you without it :-)
The contest will run until Sunday December 16th – feel free to enter as many times as you’d like! The winner will be decided by a random draw and emailed privately.
Good luck :-)
I’d actually use these tags for scrapbooking. They’d make a great embellishment. Thanks!
Can you tell us who won the snowflake fiber art tags, please? Or did I miss it somewhere?

I’m sorry to leave entries back-to-back but I really want to enter once a day so I can have those to add to my mom’s collection of copper! Does your husband use a stamp to tap the snowflakes or does he free-hand them? The flakes themselves must be quite small. Just beautiful.
They are beautiful. And its perfect that there are two because I will make them into necklaces that my twin girls can wear. I love that they are snowflakes because snowflakes are the perfect metaphor for my twins. Snowflakes may look the same from afar, but really, each one is unique. Just like my girls.
Absolutely beautiful!
I’d use them to decorate the Christmas stocking I’m making for my new sister-in-law.

Whoops – I should have included this in the post :-) The edges have been hand-sanded and then polished – they’re nice & smooth!
PS. My daughter is just plain picturing them in a frame on the wall.
Which is a pretty good idea to me, too. They deserve it!
Sorry, folks, but to me they just beg to be on velvet. It’s a contrast thing, and I would love to put them on a hand dyed velvet background with some beads and silk embroidery and finish them as hanging sachets for our closets which are forever musty and stale. Maybe a peppermint-based potpourri to enhance all that cool snow theme…
*sigh* Absolutely de-lovely work.
Love ‘em!!
every year i give handmade gifts to the ladies in the quilting bee that i am in. and this year i would like to give this gift of yours to a junior quilting bee who is only 10 years old. i would make a quilting pin for her.
Wow! They would look great on an art quilt. How are the edges finished?
I would stitch these onto the side of a dark blue knitted/felted handbag for evening. The copper would stand out beautifully. I’d place them on point and then do embroidery around them.
FABULOUS! :-)
These are beautiful… they make me think of when I lived in Colorado. I’d love to use them in my new journal quilts that I’m making based on the places I’ve lived… What fun!
