What a great way to use all those stamps you have laying around!
I`ve been looking carefully, I think I have most of them available
as extras. Next you glue them on a piece of cardboard and get it
cut like a jigsaw puzzle. Then you can spend all day putting it
together.

Spanishmoss - I am in awe. Clearly the stamp as a craft material has been put to the test. How did you do the bag? Is it shelacked or something.

I cut and pasted it from the internet!

My apologies, I should have stated in the post that they were not my items.

The only thing I have covered with stamps is a picture frame!

Nice cover delhistampguy. Other terrific pieces too.
Here's my humble effort. A stamp covered cigar box, used for storing junk stamps for...covering cigar boxes.





Does include original Canada Cigar Excise stamp on left front corner.

As long as you use a water-based glue, it is easy to just soak them right back off again.
