Yesterday I showed a picture of my Precious Moments waterglobe..
It seems to be normal for the water to evaporate or even get discolored with time..but I thought I could give it new life.
I asked DH if he could remove the globe so that I could have the figurine...
And he drilled a hole in the plastic and drained the water out. Then he cut around the base and carefully removed the bottom part and this is what I was left with.
Now that this part was done, it was time for me to make it into something fun and new, let me know what you think.
I got out my ribbon stash.....
and made a super cute tassel!
Is this not the cutest thing ever? So next time you see a waterglobe and some of the water has evaporated...
think about turning it into a tassel!
My inspiration came from Forever Decorating and she has a full tutorial.
She's made lots of great tassels, stop over there and see if you're not inspired too!
I also have a weekend linky party, please come back and share your project of the week!

Don't you hate that about snow globes? I'm glad you were able to use it to make this fun tassle! Thanks so much for linking up to Terrific Under Ten!
I wish I had seen this post last year. I had a pretty globe with a rose inside. It lost most of it's water, then I think it broke in the attic. Not knowing what to do with it, I threw it away.
Very creative to reuse yours in such a fun way.
There's nothing I love more than a good upcycle! Thank you for sharing at my linkie party!

It's adorable! I love it and I am following you now...Christine
Very cute indeed!
I do have a globe that has evaporated water.
Hmmm,I should dig it out of the box.
Hey Terry, this is Terry here and this tassel turned out so cute. I recently did a tassel tutorial on my blog but I don't think you needed the help. I am a new follower! From one Terry to another, great minds think alike and great names do too.
I used to have a massive precious moments collection as a kid. Whatever happened to them???
Great idea for waterglobes gone bad.
thanks for linking up to creative juice thursday!
