Hmmm. Week 5 of the Farmgirl blog-a-thon? Getting Crafty.
Garden Goose has tasked us e-Farmgirls to share something crafty we’ve done lately. I haven’t been too crafty of late, but I certainly love to make stuff.
My annual holiday craft was handmade snow globes (thanks Martha Stewart) using antique Mason jars.
Here’s a pic:
Then this spring, in homage to the fluffy marshmallow candy, I made this Peep Market diorama:
I have been looking for a new project to work on. I have a couple ideas. I’ve been saving up some old jewelry and have been trying to come up with an ornament I can make with the kids.
Over the holidays, I saw a great Christmas tree made from broken pieces of green glass and decorated with old, gaudy costume jewelry. But that’s for the holidays.
I still need a summer project. I’ve been thinking of letting the kids go crazy with their coloring books. I’ve been re-using the paper to wrap gifts. It’s been surprisingly popular, especially at kid parties. And no more expensive paper to buy!
