Craft supplies
As you see, they are all different. One unchangeable component is 1/3 of paper roll. So for 6 count set you’ll need only two toilet paper rolls!
Craft knife or any other sharp knife (adult’s work!)
Then, as you see on the picture above from left to right: 1) ribbon with bamboo leaves, hot glue; 2) blue acrylic paint, brush, gemstones – flowers, butterflies etc.; 3) kitchen foil, gemstones; 4) Semitransparent glimmer ribbon, hot glue; 5) red satin ribbon with chicks, hot glue
One on the red background (good for Christmas): 15 mini craft sticks, golden acrylic paint, brush, hot glue, about 16 glass stones (for zig-zag design)
One on the black background: blue ribbon, hot glue, light-yellow ribbon
One with beans (good for Thanksgiving day): large Lima beans, roman beans, red kidney beans, black beans, pink beans, yellow split peas, hot glue, acrylic sealer (optional)
Directions
Cut paper roll into three pieces by width
For ribbon: just wrap it over and under and glue the ends inside ring
For paint: paint it over (inside, too), let dry, hotglue embellishments
For foil: wrap the ring with foil, glue gemstones. Gosh it’s fast!
For craft sticks: hotglue all sticks around the ring, paint, let dry, decorate with glass stones (use hot glue)
For beans: just glue them all over the ring in any design you want. Varnish (optional).
Use rings yourself or present somebody. Handmade is always touching and moving!
Craft supplies
Crayons
Cookie cutters (metallic ones!)
Kitchen foil
Stove
String (optional)
Directions
Remove paper from the crayons
Plane or grate crayons
Wrap cookie cutters with foil so it has secured bottom
Fill the forms with crayon scobs
Put in pre-heated oven
Watch them melt
Take them out, let cool
Remove from the cutters
You can still draw with them! Or gift to somebody! Or use them as ornaments!
Tips: 1) If you want to add some elements such as sequins or gemstones or hangers, do it when it’s almost cool but still soft. If you do earlier your embellishments may sink
2) Use bright colors crayons. Dark colors interflow and all look the same “some dark color” at the end.
3) Do not use too high temperature so colors do not mix up but form beautiful wash-out
This project involves sewing but still has decoration job too so we believe it’s a very exciting and uniting team-work!
Craft supplies
Felt – 2 orange and 3 black sheets (9×12″)
1 black glimmering felt
Black thread, needle (or sewing machine )
Scissors
Pair of huge wiggle eyes for pumpkin and pair of not-so-huge wiggle eyes for cat
1 tiny-tiny pink pom pom for cat’s nose
Fabric paint – orange and black
Directions
Set aside two whole felts – black and orange – for main sheets
Cut one black felt by length in three equal stripes (ours are 3×12″) – for sides and bottom
Cut 2 stripes 1.5×11″out of black felt and 2 out of orange felt (those are for hangers)
Cut 2 orange and 2 black 1.5×2″ pieces (to strengthen hangers, candies are heavy! )
Using our templates cut out a CAT (glimmering felt) and PUMPKIN (orange felt)
Now starts sewing work We recommend decorate sheets first. Sew a cat on the orange felt and pumpkin on the black felt (don’t forget to stitch the veins)
Hotglue eyes to both personages and nose to cat
Sew two of three stripes to sheets as side parts of your bag (to ’3D’ it, you expect moooore candy, right? )
Sew the bottom to sheets and sides using third part of three stripes, cut unnecessary length out (would be 3×3″)
Let’s make hangers: sew black and orange stripes together, there must be 2 hangers out of 2 stripes
Sew the hangers so as felt is between hanger’s end and strengthening pieces. If you sew rectangles by perimeter and then X-es inside, that’d feel firm
Now draw pumpkin’s nose and mouth with black fabric paint, add some specific words etc.
Tips: 1) Use glowing in the dark fabric markers to impart your bag more frightening effect (especially if you draw skulls and bones and other scary stuff Halloween dispose to )
2) You can make your bag flat to avoid oversewing
Note: Description sounds more difficult than project presents itself
You can give it to your Mom on Mothers’ day or any regular day, she can put it on her bedside table and this cute “palm” will keep her ring, necklace, earrings or cell phone while she’s asleep. Or, use it just as loose change keeper!
