The Japanese kusudama is a paper ball made out of multiple identical origami shapes glued together. They were traditionally used as a ball for incense or potpourri but now we see them more for decoration or as a gift. Today I am showing you part 1 on how to make the Japanese traditional shape.

On Saturday was our monthly Crafternoon meet up. You can check out past month’s here , here , and here . I also did it for Mother’s Day two years in a row here and here , but now it’s turned into a monthly get-together. I just love hanging out with these folks each month…sitting around chatting, eat good food, and try out a crafty project or two. This month we were gonna do an easy one of spray painting glass jars. Then of course I stumbled across pour painting flower pots (i’ll post some instructions) and had to throw that in there too.

I searched this forum, and apparently I'm not the only one confused about where to put knitting needles, but it seems they go here, since others did! then ends are either polymer clay or buttons, and the needles are embedded with yarn, glitter, gold leaf, mica powder, and resin dye, but not all in the same pairs!

We're always on the lookout for new creative ideas to add to our little one's lives. We love the look of this thumb print guest book, although it was used for a wedding (and a fabulous one at that) we think the look is perfect for your next baby shower or as wall art in your nursery. A few more ideas are after the jump! We really love the idea of little individual leaves. We also think it could be a neat thing to keep from year to year for your child, letting invited attendees to birthday parties stamp their fingers to leave their mark on the day. Keep the same "tree" from year to year, just add to it as you go, alter colors if you wish, just make sure to date one or two so you know where it stops.

I feel so supported and good about the whole thing. . .it's hard to put into words, except to say thank you. I am not really able to stay focused on any one big project right now (like the the quilt and blanket I have started and not finished for this baby) so, I jumped to something else and I tried my hand at some felt covered barrettes last week and these are quick and easy. They go together so fast, it won't make me crazy if we lose them.
