Wanna' craft???? Why not try some of the projects below?


Windchimes are so great to have hanging and when I saw this one in a craft magazine, I couldn't resist making it. It's made with two flowerpots (one on top is smaller). Rocks are glued around bottom of lower pot. A small wooden wheel is painted and glued to top. Put small nails around rim and string very fine wire around nails. On top of this is a very tiny flowerpot.
This is one of my wooden creations. I cut the wood and then went crazy. Check out the pig on the leash in lower right. I think you can tell by looking at this piece most of what was done, so I won't go into detail.
Simple heart shaped straw wreath form covered with white plastic garbage bags. Trimmed with red fuzzy christmas ribbon box pleated around outside and flowers made with the same ribbon.
This little tree is made with paper twist, glued and shaped. Can be used for any holiday/non-holiday. Hang whatever you wish.
Sachet/potpourri wallhanging is easy and quick to make. Use a rectangle of heavy cardboard or thin wood plaque; cover with fabric and accent with lace (secure with glue to back) ; place and glue envelope; accessorize with buttons and artificial flowers; attach hanger (I used purchased braid). Instead of purchasing the pricy little sachet envelopes, make your own from wallpaper scraps or border. Use an envelope as a template and find the best area of the wallpaper for front of envelope; glue together leaving top open until you fill with potpourri, then glue top. There are lots of ways to change and personalize-choice of fabric-accessories-choice of envelope. These are great for bathrooms and/or bedrooms. These make great gifts so have fun. I'd love to see pictures of yours.
