I recently learned how to decorate white paper and plain gift boxes with a marbleizing technique by using oil-based enamel hobby paints. The ones I bought come in small bottles and are used for painting model airplanes. They can be purchased in hobby and craft stores. In my opinion, the r..

Edible Thanksgiving Turkey

by LindaDunbar
Arts and Crafts

These “turkeys” would be perfect to make for the younger crowd attending a Thanksgiving dinner as they are almost completely edible. This could even be their dessert. The only part you can’t eat is the head as it is made from a wine bottle cork. Watch out for the toothpicks that..

by LindaDunbar
Arts and Crafts

I recently made an easy yet charming pillow in a craft class at a women's day out program I attended. As we walked out of the classroom carrying our completed pillows, we were the envy of all the other women in attendance. The presenter was looking for a craft that we could put together w..

by LindaDunbar
Arts and Crafts

No Halloween décor would be complete without spiders and especially large ones like Tarantulas. There are so many misconceptions about this type of spider so I’d like to say a few kind words on their behalf before we get started on this craft. First of all, most Tarantula bit..
