Easter Carousel

I have been playing around with making a carousel for a few days.  The hardest part is coming up with the idea!!  I used an empty toilet paper roll for the center.  I love the bunny Sizzlet die and the Tilda stamp that has her holding an Easter egg- I got the chance to use both!!  The butterflies are from Spellbinder's too!  It is sitting on top of an empty ribbon spool.  I love the chance to recycle items that I have saved and just can't seem to throw away!  Not that I save toilet paper rolls but think how many of them you throw away!  At least I got the chance to use ONE!  Anyway, it will make a nice centerpiece for Easter!  Wait ...Shhhh....Maybe I won't tell anyone it was made with a toilet paper roll...

    How cute! Does this actually spin around? Love the 'green' concept of recycling.

    Well, no, it doesn't spin around. I should do that- find something to make it spin. I do love being able to "reuse" something for a project!
