Don’t Forget to Sign Your Quilt!

March 18, 2012 by Cindy Leave a Comment

This may seem small, but I think it is a critical step in the Quilting process. Yet all too often, it is overlooked. Don’t forget to sign (and date) your Quilt! You’ve most likely put a lot of time into your quilted project. It’s a beautiful work of art, and quilts are made to last….

Mod Podge Simpsons Pumpkin!

October 31, 2011 by Cindy Leave a Comment

Yes. It is true. You can decoupage a pumpkin. Mod Podge + Fabric. Fabulous. Mod Podge is basically watered down Elmer’s glue. You brush it on, apply strip of fabric, and brush another layer over the fabric and repeat around the whole pumpkin. I’ve done this with paper before, but never fabric, and never on…

Coffee Filter Flower Breakdown

July 18, 2011 by Cindy Leave a Comment

A rose for mom. That I made. Out of coffee filters. Seriously! There is already a fabulous photo step-by-step tutorial available on Crafster. SarahJSaturday made such a beautiful bouquet; I could not believe they weren’t real and, in fact, coffee filters. I originally found the bouquet via a post on Dollar Store Crafts. Amazing. BUT….

The Birthday Treat Bag, All Grown Up

July 5, 2011 by Cindy Leave a Comment

When we were young, we left birthday parties with a plastic treat bag of excitement… filled with candy, little games and fake tattoos. Then we started growing up, and somewhere in our 20’s leaving a birthday party now meant a cab ride and a hangover the next morning. When I handed my friends a treat…

The CPSIA -or- Why I do not sell baby clothes on Etsy

March 20, 2011 by Cindy 2 Comments

I enjoy making baby Onesies very much. From a crafter perspective, they are very cute and are a small project that can be completed in an evening. From a business perspective, baby clothes are something that people will always spend money on. Stuff for babies and stuff for pets. Cute stuff, which is what I…

Etsy Profile Surprise!

April 23, 2010 by Cindy 1 Comment

At the beginning of April, I joined an online gift exchange though Swap-Bot. Basically, I signed up for a specific swap. Then a computer random picked someone else from the swap for me to send to (and someone else randomly recieved my name). The mission: find something on ETSY for $5 and send it to…

Beautiful Art Projects from Stuff You Already Own

April 18, 2010 by Cindy 2 Comments

I own a ton of craft supplies. Seriously. Which wouldn’t be so bad if I had a pretty craft room, like the one on Martha (yes, I realize it’s a set and only 1/2 of a room, but it’s still more than I have). Instead, mine are in plastic hinged storage boxes and drawers lining…

A Fair Day (Part 2): Desserts and Handicrafts

April 16, 2010 by Cindy Leave a Comment

Ok, I have slept a few nights and am less disgruntled about the County Fair. So Part 2 is focusing on the happier side of the experience. I entered my family’s homemade toffee into the Home Economics Show, Dessert Division, Candy from Scratch Section. It didn’t win a Dessert Division award, but it did receive…

A day at the Fair… that just wasn’t quite fair (Part 1)

April 11, 2010 by Cindy 2 Comments

penguin quilt

So I’m a bit of a competitive person. I like entering competitions, going head to head with other people, challenging myself… and I don’t mind losing when it’s a fair fight. But I should know by now that competitions are not always fair… MUN in high school proved that time and time again 😐 I…

So many craft ideas, so little time

April 4, 2010 by Cindy Leave a Comment

The more I surf around the internet, the more I find blogs of fellow crafters that are out-crafting me by about a billion percent. But I shall persevere. And borrow ideas, and share mine too :D. Here are a few of the best I have found recently. They are just so clever! Iron on decals…
