How about this adorable Christmas Tree?  It's getting to be that time of year again, why not create a license plate tree this year.

I don't know about you but I've got mail all over the place, can't seem to keep it corralled.  What a great way to keep things organized, and it's cute too!

What a great idea.  My mind immediately goes to book covers.  Might have to try that (I have my grandfathers motorcycle license plates in my cupboard, thinking a journal is in order).

What a beautiful flower.  You could design any shape of flower or animal you'd like, think of the possibilities.

Fox Hollow Gallery on Etsy

Very cute.  Names, quotes, bible verses, again, the possibilities are endless.  What would you frame to put on your wall?

Cobalt Moon Jewelry on Etsy

This is fabulous!  You could do an accent wall, a headboard or even cover a door.

I need to make some of these, what a great idea.  Growing up, every vacation we'd hit the souvenir shop but never did I find my name on anything, an initial, now that might work!

I am hoping to make business cards holders for the new shop, maybe some advertisement holders for the foyer as well.  So many possibilities, so little time!
