Calling All Lilly Lovers!!!

OMG!!! How many of you Lilly Pulitzer lovers have old agendas lying around just because you can't bare to throw away such beauty??? Raise your hand.....yep.  I thought so.  Look at all of these ideas I've come across for repurposing all of those pages....All you need is an old agenda and a little Modge Podge

And here are a few recommendations from Lifeguard Press:
  • Use the patterned monthly divider pages as unique scrap-booking paper or decoupage paper.
  • Cut out and frame the monthly "Lillisms" (sayings, rhymes and quotes on each monthly page) for cute and clever artwork.
  • Use the decorative pages as wrapping paper for small gifts.
  • Cut or tear the patterned pages into a variety of geometric shapes and create a collage by gluing them to a piece of paper, then slip that into the exterior clear insert sleeve of a ring-binder to create a Lilly-patterned binder.
  • Cut out dress-shapes from the patterned sheets (being sure to include tabs at the shoulders and around the waist) to create Lilly-patterned paper doll dresses.
  • Cut the agenda's patterned sheets into squares and use as unique Lilly-patterned origami paper.
  • Make rolled paper beads from the more colorful pages of the agenda and create unique jewelry, hair accessories, or even a beaded curtain.
  • Glue or mod-podge your favorite patterns or pages to blank ceramic tiles and then coat them with polyurethane for DIY coasters.
  • Using a variety of sizes of hole-punchers, punch out small circles or shapes to create Lilly Pulitzer confetti!
  • Re-purpose your favorite pages into note cards or gift tags
