Happy Tuesday!
What a great day we have planned.
It’s our special Two for One deal day at the studio so come on in and bring a friend or family member and pay for just one of you!
We’re also excited about today’s Girls Club session at the studio which is all about speaking up and the girls will craft their own megaphones!
We welcome Troop 61094 who will work on their “Using Resources Wisely” Daisy petal with us!
What Fun!

Made.

I love the way the Fimo Clay shakers turned out. They became cinnamon shakers instead of the traditional salt and pepper. With those and the burlap pumpkins and fall candles the Pinspired ladies are all set for fall fun.

More Paper Fun!

Our spotlight on paper continues with this easy independant project for preschoolers, making Wrapping Paper accessories. Just grab a roll of wrapping paper and some tape. The paper process can even go a step further to become whole outfits!

Paper!

We love it and we LOVE to reuse it because it has so much reuse potential and, we LOVE trees.

I recently researched how much paper comes from one tree and an 2011 report said approximately 16 reams of paper come from one tree. I’m guessing it takes a lot of trees to make little paper so here’s an idea to reuse the missprinted papers, outdated calendars, emails, schedules and such. Turn them into scratch paper! We call it idea paper at CReATE. Cutting sheets of 8 1/2″ × 11″ paper into eighths makes great paper bits for your ideas and to-do’s. Try it!

Paper…

As our spotlight on paper continues this month, we share an easy reuse craft that happens to be a perfect “Creating At Home” project to do.

We took a few cards an cut them in just a few snips into gift tags that are perfect for any gift you give.

You’ll need a greeting card or postcard that’s already seen it’s day.  

You need a pair of scissors and a hole punch if you have one. You can also just tape a tag to a gift.

Take your card and cut it into a rectangle, square or other favorite shape making sure to cut out the part of the card you want to feature. For our cards we cutvtriangles then snipped little triangles off the corners to get a traditional tag shape them punched a hole near the top for use with string or ribbon.

So easy.

When your done you’ll have tags for any gifts you have to give. Start now, and you’ll be all set for your holiday and any other gift giving needs.
