Make Your Own Puppy?

A bit of paper and pipe cleaner and I was able to turn my little sister into a puppy! Something I've always wanted! When I presented her to my mom and daddy they laughed so hard. When they calmed down, they took a picture for the blog. What costumes can you make with simple supplies like pipe cleaner and paper?

Making Jewelry

I had a play date with a school friend and we wanted to do a craft. It was her choice and she said she wanted to use the "jewels" and make a bracelet and necklace. So we got ribbon and glued the jewels onto the ribbon. We each made a bracelet and a necklace. My nanny suggested that I use velcro as a fastener since tying the ribbon doesn't work so well. Luckily my mom had some velcro circles in her own craft closet! You could also do a similar thing to trim a cork board or decorate a frame, etc. Give it a try!
