SB: magic mesh

[chessie]

Has anyone tried magic mesh?

It just came in at the LSS and I was elected to try and figure out what to do with it. So far we have made borders and covered tags. I put sparkle on a piece of it and it looked kind of neat. I thought I would put some on cardstock and run it through the letter cutter but so far most of the things I have thought of are kind of boring.
Here is an example:

all the way at the bottom

It comes in dozens of colors

I made a basketball goal out of it. I think it looks neat when you make letters. It's an embellishment that's gonna have to grow on me.

I like this stuff! My LSS just got it in too -- she said she has had a lot of people asking for it. I used it like a net in a beach layout -- added shell diecuts to it. I am still thinking of other ways to use it -- I like the idea of making letters out of it -- I'll have to try that one.

I made a bug catcher container out of it (the kind that is shaped like a mailbox that kids carry around)...I used brown cardstock for the outside of the catcher and black magic mesh to look like the wire on the catcher, then a loop of twine at the top to look like a handle...then put stickers of bugs under it before attaching it to the page....it was really cute! I also made a soccer goal out of it too, using the magic mesh as the net part, and white cardstock as the frame of the goal....

hope that helps!
