I got a kick out of your challenge, as my husband is an electrical engineer and would be surprised and impressed if I were to ever use any electrical components on my cards or scrapbook pages! :) Since the wire is very flexible, I would bend the wire on each end of the resistor into a spiral and use them to border a phrase (on a card) or a photo (on a scrapbook page).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081021903869950330.post-77917039577776332872008-04-03T12:49:00.000-04:002008-04-03T12:49:00.000-04:00Hi Lauri: I use these babies all the time!

I think it's fun to come up with creative ideas to use items like the resistors in our craft projects. They would make cute embellishments. You could string beads or primas with them in card or scrapbook projects, or stick them in wax candles to make metal like accents to dress up a candle arrangement. I like how you used them as stems in your flower card!Linda SShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12680915850160022736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081021903869950330.post-87814815411985928102008-04-02T18:07:00.001-04:002008-04-02T18:07:00.001-04:00Well, I'm not sure what they are made of, but can ...Well, I'm not sure what they are made of, but can you ink them with stazon on and make them into stems for flowers?

W...Goodness Ms. Lauri - that is quite the giveaway! WOW!<BR/><BR/>Just brainstorming but was thinking that if the resistors are easy to bend (I have no clue) then you could combine a few together and make flourishes with them. Also you could add a few beads to them and place them on cards like you would with hat pins. Or again if they bend you could make letters with them and spell out something or even make a number with it for a birthday card or such. Again hoping they bend, you could make a circle with one of them and then use some others as the rays of a sun. Still thinking . . . :)Aprilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09979687305647578122noreply@blogger.com
