Tinks Tassel Cap - Gift Idea

9/21/2013

I don't have littles anymore.  My boys are 20 and 22.  I miss the giggling and squeals.  I am NOT, however, ready for grandbabies.

I was searching of other ways to help people and I found Hero Network.  There are simple wishes (a get-well or birthday card, or small gift) and there are really big wishes. 

I made this for a little girl whose family fell on hard times and can't afford much for her birthday.  Every little girl deserves something special and fun, especially on their birthday.  So I knitted this hat.  I like it so much, I may make one for myself next!

Don't know how to knit?  No worries, it is an easy pattern.

Glue Gun Snowflake - Update

9/18/2013

I wasn't quite satisfied with my glue gun snowflakes.  They needed a little...well, a lot of pizzazz.  So I got out the Extra Fine Glitter, some glue, a piece of paper (to catch the glitter dust) and a small paint brush.

I placed the snowflake on the piece of paper with the flat (or bottom) side up.  I then dabbed glue on the snowflake and sprinkled the glitter dust onto the snowflake.  I let it dry completely, tapped the extra glitter off and now my glue gun snowflakes have pizzazz.

I believe I'll be using glitter glue sticks for those I give away as gifts or I'll be glittering the kitchen table again.

Sorry, your food sparkles honey.

Glue Gun Snowflake Ornaments - Gift Idea

A friend gave me several glass bead snowflakes for my tree last year.  They are very fragile, ornate and gorgeous.  I love them.  Unfortunately...one has already been broken.  It got me thinking about how to replicate their intricacy without the delicacy.  So I played around with my glue gun, making dots and dashes mostly and then eventually coming up with snowflake designs.
