Genius Craft Ideas! Your Going To Love These!!This colorful calendar was made using paint swatches and a frame that doubles as a dry erase board. You can use it for every month of the year!Not only practical, it also doubles as a coffee bean room air freshener. I nice little wake me up! You could also use things like dried beans, marbles, rice, or mini crystals.Now THIS is crafty. Talk about being resourceful! A recycled tuna can and a few clothespin makes quite the unique flower pot or candle holder.Paint a shutter to match your room’s decor and then hang it on the wall to store mail, photos, and reminders.Keep those cords and power strips hidden with your very own charging station made out of a ribbon dispenser box. Use a utility knife to cut a hole for your power strip cord to pass through, label the holes, and decorate the box!Put that collection of wine corks to good use (and your garden herbs and other plants labeled in style) with these homemade wine cork garden markers.Another clever stamp idea using the bottom of a recycled soda bottle. This would be really cute for a little girl’s room! Maybe test it out on some scratch paper, and then make a piece of art work out of it on a white canvas.This is the ultimate craft when it comes to recycling; It’s actually pretty darn cute, too! My daughter would be all over this project. You can also use colorful ribbon or string in place of hemp. Now, just don’t forget to save those soda can tabs!This will keep the little ones busy for hours, and it won’t cost a dime! With just a little bit of cutting and glueing, your kids will have their very own ball maze. Let them experiment with marbles, golf balls, and mini toy cars.Upcycle those used bulbs into cute little flower vases using pliers to disassemble the hardware. You can also hang them using twine — cute for outdoor gatherings!

This sculpture was made from reclaimed books that would have otherwise been thrown away. But look! They can have a second life...as something utterly captivating. What could be better than having your favorite stories immortalized forever and hanging on your wall? What if the words that helped define and shape your life could be forever felt with their essence locked into a sculpture? When you install this artwork in your home...people will gravitate towards it. Is it fabric? Is it water? Woodland mushrooms? What IS it? They'll want to touch it, to make sure it is real. No one has ever seen anything like it. What is that I see? Beethoven? Handel? Kayne? Is that a handwritten note on a page? Its the most amazing thing to look at from afar as well as up close. This piece was roughly 4 feet high x 4 feet wide. The interior is comprised of various different sizes of books, between 5.5" all the way down to 2" inches depth and was created for a specific place in the client's home in Chicago. You may send me the dimensions you would prefer. All sculptures are custom created. I incorporated books that represented her family: music! I can use your old books or look for specific titles as well. This buyer wanted a square-ish sculpture. Each page is folded, tipped, quilled, wrapped, rolled, pulled by my two hands, for a very intricate unique, artist-led design. Your artwork's patterns and layers will emerge organically and will be incomparable to any other sculpture I create or anything that can be bought elsewhere.

A beautiful, custom wooden crate is crafted around the sculpture and it is suspended within for safe travel to your desired destination. The entire shipment will have a scheduled delivery (you get to schedule it) and it weighs 150-250 pounds, depending on size (the sculpture alone will weigh less but still be 100-150 pounds). These are both massively heavy and delicate. Never was there such a fun paradox! Unboxing and Hanging Suggestions will be sent after purchase and most customers hang themselves with 2-3 friends to assist with a simple drill and screws. People have hung them on anything from Florida plaster to drywall with wood studs to concave stairwells to drywall with metal studs, etc. Handmade in my studio, on a little southeast barrier island in the USA. Inspiration comes from my micro-homestead, the woods, the salt marshes I travel over and the salty sea we frequent weekly. Designers & Curators please contact me with any questions. Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers. ~Charles W. Eliot Copyright 2012.

I used leaf stamps and Jacquard Lumiere paint on the heavier lutradur. I let it dry, then I cut them out and blasted them with the heat gun set on HIGH. I straightened them out while they were still hot (yes, I have burnt fingertips to prove it.) I'm not crazy about these. I will probably get out the paints and add a layer of color. These are the lighter weight of lutradur. I discovered that they look much nicer with the heat gun set at the lower setting and some extra patience. The "leaf" on the upper right was done on high, with the other two on low. It took a bit longer, but the result is more what I was hoping for -- a kind of lacy result. Again, I used the lower heat setting; but a much nicer result, I think. A little more heat and a little more patience would benefit this one. And because it's Halloween, I just had to use the spider web stamp. I used the high setting on the heat gun and it's almost dissolved. But still spooky, if you're into that...

Alpha Stamps has started carrying great little masonite ATC sized hutches. With one of those and lots of other Alpha Stamps supplies and collage sheets, I created a Melancholy Circus. I was inspired by the thought of kids running away to join the circus, and then discovering that circus life is really not all it's cracked up to be. Turns out it's a Melancholy Circus: even the trick dogs are sad. Sorry, kids! The clown on the top was formerly a brightly colored cupcake pick. I painted it with gesso and then aged it with acrylic paints and ink. Here's a list of what I used, with the supplies from Alpha Stamps linked. SUPPLIES USED Clown Cupcake Pick ATC Hutch Shrine Kit Valance Curtain Die-Cut Chipboard Patterned Paper from Graphic 45 Circus Arabian Collage Sheet Little Imps Collage Sheet Little Darlings Collage Sheet Circus Horse Stickers Red Rhinestones 3D Metal Stars Star Ribbon 1/8" Red Ribbon Thin Border Stickers (Black) All the kids have been given a red clown nose and a circus hat, plus a stripey pennant and a clown horn. Even one of the dogs has been decked out in a party hat. They're still not happy. Is it wrong that I love how morose all those kids look, now that they've been properly dressed and forced to perform? Even the depressed looking dogs delight me, poor things. If you're following along at home, you may have noticed that lately I've done several circus pieces with not-so-enthusiastic kids attending. I'm working on a series. I have more sad circuses in the mix.
The Constellations Club Stamp kit is out the door, and soon you'll get your hands on the gorgeous text weight print inside the box. It's one of my favorite components from each collection! This month, I created a matchbox-sized album with one of the
