Twisting Beads to Wire

I've previously posted instructions for "Holiday Flowers".
On the flower I had added beads, and this is how I made
them. 

It's optional if you want to add beads or not but I thought it looked prettier with them. 

Holiday Flower

Last Christmas for my daughters class I bought little poinsettia and glued them on clips for all the girls in her
class. This year I decided to make some holiday flowers for all the girls in my daughters class and my sons stay and play class.  For the teachers I put a brooch pin on the back and for all the girls I put a hair clip..  I've took some pictures and wrote some step by step instructions on how I made these. 

Hope you will have fun making them this holiday. 

Snowman Bells

This Christmas I decided to make some snowman bells ornaments for my daughters class for all the boys.

I took some pictures step by step and added some instructions on how I made them... hope you all will have fun making them also. :)

Ballerina Chippie

My daughter started taking ballerina lessons and she's very excited about it all the time.  She asked me to make her some ballerina clippies.  I found a link on how to make these here.

Felt Owl

For my daughters last day of school I made a little gift for her teacher... since all the kids in her class had gifts why not the teacher.  I found a picture of this owl online and thought it was so cute so I did my version of it in plush.  I made a fabric ball and then cut each feather out from felt and stitched it on.  I made the graduation hat from a cardboard and covered it with felt.  I the apple was made from satin cloth and the chalk board was felt with hand stitched words.  Each item has a magnet on the bottom and so does the board so it can be taken apart and be placed back to the exact spot.  The site where I found this owl is ...

Flower Clippies

Finger Puppets

I haven't posted in a while so thought I'd better catch up and show some of the things I've been working on lately.  So first of all I'll start with the Finger puppets.  I made a bunch of these for my daughters last day of school back in June and for her loot bags in July (I guess you know how long I haven't been posting. :P)  I made these only for the boys because I had other things in mind for the girls.  I got the idea from surfing around different sites and really liked the ones from this site  http://www.theidearoom.net/2010/04/felt-finger-puppets-and-tutorial.html  I changed mine a bit... hope you will have fun making these.

Headband Holder

Since my daughter had her hair cut she's been obsessed with headbands.  She has so many that it's hard to find a place to put them all.  So I've decided to make something that can hold and display her headbands so it's easier for her to find and store her headbands.  It's really easy to make not much materials need.  If anyone needs instructions you can leave me a message or. :)    The one I made for my daughter holds up to 31 headband max. (That's including I use the space in between the loops.)

Valentines Day Gift

It's been awhile since I've posted sometime on my blog... It's not that I haven't been making anything. But been too busy making things that I haven't had time to blog everything .. so I will have to start catching up. The most recent thing that I've made is valentines day arrangement for my daughters' teacher.

With simple materials and maybe 2-3 hours of your time you can put this together. The five petal flower I had posted instructions previously. As for the roses you can Google, it's very easy just fold and roll.
