This is a wonderful project which involves up-cycling+nostalgia+useful idea all together- Making a collaged photo album from your last vacation's flying tickets!
It seems like ages since our family trip to the US,but actually it's been only 2 month since we came back. During our journey we had a total of 9!!!! flights ,during each we had collect 27!!! flying tickets...
Usually one will throw this suppose to be waist,but not we-we collect ALL our tickets from all our international trips.
After returning to Israel, my hubby decided to clean our storage room and I found VERY old photo albums with this retro photo laminated to the cover (yak),so I ripped off the lamination from the cover,sand it a little to give it a raw surface and gave it a totally new cover by collaging all our tickets and memorabilia onto it. All was topped with a glaze to give it an extra shine and durability and vu-a-la my new and uh,so fantastic photo Album was born
