* Larger snowflakes: If you want larger snowflakes, use larger paper. You will probably need to cut more lines though; work it out from how large your piece of paper is. Don't try enlarging your snowflakes until you are comfortable with the method of making them with the suggested paper size first. * Paper color variations: You could vary the paper color if you want to match a Christmas color theme - red or green for instance. Those left over bits of holiday wrapping paper also work very well - just keep in mind that one side of the paper will be plain white while the other side will be colorful. * Decoration ideas: If you want to "jazz up" your snowflakes, put liquid glitter on the snowflake along various parts of the paper lines. Silver, gold, red or green are probably the most suitable colors to use. Or you could think of other additions; the author tried tiny buttons and stick-on costume gems one year and they looked exquisite. Just remember though, that these do not store very... See less

You might actually have to iron an item of clothing! Now, onto the fun stuff. Iron the fabric flat. This makes it much easier to work with. Trace the Card-Elope8 onto the fun foam and cut it out. VERY CAREFULLY make a Arelease cut@ partway thru the fun foam. Now this stuff cuts very easily so be careful! Just use the weight of the knife, don=t push. Try practicing on a scrap piece. The good news is that even if you go all the way thru, or it breaks in the process, you can still use it. Now, using the fabric glue, place a bead of glue on the wrong side... See less

A sparkleball is a magical ornament handmade from plastic cups and a string of mini-Christmas lights. * The directions may sound difficult but will make sense as you work. Build your first, and you'll be rockin' and rollin' by your second sparkleball. To make a basic sparkleball, you will need the following supplies: 1. A soldering iron (pictured) 2. 50 9in Solo-style plastic cups (with slanted sides) 3. A string of 100 lights, mini-light size. I also use a fan for ventilation, and you must must must work outdoors. * Heat the soldering iron. When hot, poke/melt a hole approx. 1/2" in the bottom of all 50 plastic cups. * Arrange 12 cups in a ring, as pictured. Make sure cups touch at the bottoms. This is more important than touching at their rims. With the hot iron, connect each cup to its neighbor at the bottom sides. To do so, press the iron so it makes a welded joint. The joint must cool to hold fast. * Now build a second layer of cups on top of the first ring. Use 9 cups in this... See less

Making Handmade Paperin 10 easy steps Ancient Egyptians invented the first substance like the paper we know today called Papyrus. Papyrus scrolls were made by taking slices of the inner part of the papyrus stem, flattening then pounded into a hard, thin sheet. The word "paper" comes from the word "papyrus". The Paper that we know today was invented by Ts'ai Lun in A.D. 105, It is believed that he mixed hemp, mulberry bark, and rags with water, mashed it into a pulp, pressed out the liquid and hung it to dry in the sun. Paper was born and this humble mixture would set off one of mankind's greatest communication revolutions. Today there is a revival in homemade papermaking crafts. Not only is it a fun experience for you and the kids, but it's a good way to recycle waste into wonderful possibilities. Below you will find a simple papermaking recipe to get you started.

Measure round the head in question! Divide by 6; add 1 cm to the result and call this figure "X". Make an arch-shaped cardboard template about 20 cm or 8 " long and "X" wide at the middle & bottom. Cut 6 fleece panels round the template. Stitch fleece arches together - I use the zig-zag setting on my machine for this. Check that the seams are firm and pop a couple of stitches in by hand at the top where they all join up. Cut a strip head measurement + 1cm long & 5 cm or 2" wide. Stitch band into a loop. With seams inside, place band on hat, tuck raw edges under, pin & stitch into place. (Zig-zag stitch again is best as it will stretch a bit.) You can add a line of blanket stitch round the bottom for emphasis if you like, or applique motifs onto plain panels. The hat can be worn with the band folded up for small heads or down for extra warmth & stability. Close-up showing the construction of the hat. See less

Lay the dishtowel on the table with the wrong side up. Fold in thirds lengthwise. Fold in thirds again (Fig. 1). Set aside. Take one of the washcloths and starting at one corner roll to the middle. Roll the opposite corner to the middle to meet it (Fig. 2). This will be the ears. Fold the top part of the dishtowel down about 1/3 of the way. Take the washcloth "ears" and lay them inside the fold--Grab the ears by the points and pull up tightly (Fig. 3) Tie with a piece of ribbon as close to the dishtowel as you can (tie a bow with the ribbon) (Fig. 4). Tie another bow under the bulge you made with the ears (Fig. 5). This makes the head. Starting at the edge roll up the other washcloth (Fig. 6). This will be the arms. Slide the "arms" in between the back and front of the dishtowel up to the "neck". Tie a bow under the arms. This makes the waist. (Fig. 7) Bring the "hands" to the front and tie at the "wrists" with another bow (Fig. 8). You should have a little lady bunny ready to hold... See less
