Gift bags made from envelopes The event for which I needed that non-Satanic craft was this past weekend. In addition to little demon-free booklets, we also made these mini gift bags. "Baglets," as one participant christened them. (Or maybe you'd spell it "Baglette"? Looks more elegant than spelling it like "piglet." Find an envelope of any size. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. All done. Update: Try this envelope gift bag project with decorative masking tape.

Paper Flowers – Anyone Can Do That | FindInspirations.com Japanese Kusudama, this tutorial is featured on Craftuts Anyone can do that, I assure you. The proof: I can, just take a quick look at my result below. Below you can see my very first attempt to create paper flowers. What you will need to make your own Kusudama paper ball? 1. 3. 4. (optionally) I prefer torn paper instead of cut. You have to start with a single petal. Now you have to glue your 5 petals into a flower. Apply the glue to only one side of each petal, except for the last one, in this case cover both sides with glue. Your first flower is done. Don’t glue every petal right after you make it. When all 12 flowers are finished you have to glue them together. When two halves of Kusudama Flower Ball are ready you have to glue them together.

Little Things Bring Smiles: *Rustic Snowflakes* Our snow day has sadly come to an end. The sun has settled and the only place to be now is inside.

Starstruck at Christmas « Kate's Creative Space Regular followers will know of my obsession with all things paper, and with projects which take very little time or specialist skill. As Christmas draws ever closer, I’ve been experimenting with different types of festive stars and bring you some simple projects to try today. My usual reassuring criteria apply; these had to be things I could a) get right the first time – or very occasionally the second; b) could do in front of the TV, merlot in hand, and c) look far more elegant and skilled than the actual labour would suggest. Below you’ll find my instructions on how to make each of these stars; the classic 5-point Amish barn stars, 6-point folding stars and concertina or snowflake stars, which look beautiful hung in windows. Five-point stars are in some ways the most striking and simple stars; reminiscent of Amish barn stars and New England folk decorations, they are the kind of stars that children draw in their first pictures. They make gorgeous gift-toppers too…. Finally, fold!

Pins to Creation Post - Snowman Door Hi all! For today's post I decided to go with something totally FUN! We have been decorating our house slowly but surely the last few days, getting it ready for Christmas. While I was going through pinterest thinking of what I wanted to do for this post, I saw this and remembered how much I wanted to do it last year. Here is the website where I pinned the idea from, and here is a copy of the photo she had on her blog:-). isn't it too cute? Here is my version, my kids are in LOVE with this snowman:-). Here's another photo from higher up on my stairs. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Window Star tutorial I made some Waldorf-style window stars to decorate our big living room windows. I like to put them up in the winter, to liven up the wintry view. They are a bit fiddly, but satisfying to crank out, not unlike cut paper snowflakes. The best paper to use is square kite paper (ETA- it's 6 1/4" square.) Actually, my son Julian, who is 7, made the green one, I was pleasently suprised he stuck with all the steps! Use the white paper as a work surface, it's easier to see what you are doing. Then fold it in half and crease well. Then fold the pieces each in half crosswise and cut. Next, open them out so you have a rectangle with a crease running down the center. See my not-quite tidy edge? Now on one end only, fold in the sides to meet at the middle. So after you've done that with all eight pieces, you will have this: Now put a small glob of glue on the corner of your white paper. Continue gluing and laying out the pieces... That's it!

Christmas CD's Don't forget my Pampered Chef and Heritage Makers Black Friday Sales. Sales are good ALL DAY LONG!!! This project was so much fun. I had 14 cds left. My daughter is helping me trace. After tracing, you simply cut out. I inked the edges with a dark red to match the paper and then modge podged my paper onto the cds. Now for the next step, there are several ways you can do this. After putting on the first three letters, I decided I wanted to sand the letters, so I peeled them off and sanded. I had the perfect thing to hang my "CHRISTMAS" letters on. I will be linking to
