Craft Wonders

Slammed………that’s what I’ve been this past couple days………Slammed. Then to add spice to the week, my son decides that he’s not getting enough attention, so he brewed up a 101.4 temp. I yi yi…..

I was channeling the creative gods for some crafty crafts that I could perhaps do with my sick boy. Or some quick Christmas crafts to get us in the spirit……get us going. Christmas is only 3 weeks from Thursday. NUTS!
Craft Wonders has a couple of things that I thought looked so fun. They don’t look too difficult to achieve, but will look like you have some talent. Not that she doesn’t………I’m sure she’s plenty talented……oh gosh…..my foot doesn’t taste so good.
Once again I never got around to completing one of the cookie sheet advent calendars, not that it’s too late…… Who cares if it’s already the first week of December……..Kids don’t care. This one below is so cute………..doesn’t look like I have to be a brain surgeon to complete it. but it still has enough style that people won’t think that it’s a left over Kindergarten project. Love that. What a great gift too.

This Tree!!! A. DOR. ABLE! You and a Styrofoam tree, and some scrapbook paper……..you’ve got yourself a new centerpiece or mantle decor. I may try these, because Lord knows I’m smarter this year and WILL NOT be doing a gum drop tree………but maybe since I’m smarter, I would at least use a thimble……….yea……..didn’t even think of that last year. How easy would this be? Not or everyone………..but surely for us crafty girls. We can do this. What a great idea for gifts! Everyone could use a holiday apron.
I really have no idea what this is below. I just liked the photo. She said something about using freezer paper, and making tee shirt designs for a concert. I need my hand held………please do a tutorial on this. This looks cool!
And when she’s not playing with paint…….she’s back to paper stuff. I love these hanging art pieces. You could go a step further and frame this with the darling ribbon to hang it…………wow, another great gift! I don’t know how I know this, because I don’t even know her name……but I think she likes color. Just a hunch. Look at how she displayed her little boxes she picked from IKEA. There’s something about the balance of this that makes me really happy.
Get in the spirit and head over to Craft Wonders…………Enjoy!
