Ohhh, that's adorable!

I made this for my granddaughter last year, she was doing home school with me then and I wanted to get her a globe for her studies as she got older.

Here's my Valentine Craft. A wreath for my front door.

Is anyone doing any Valentine Crafts? Please share what you're working on.

Wow! What a clever idea!

3D car jigsaw puzzle. Part model and part jigsaw. Took 2 months to get the jigsaw puzzle done. Well parts of the jigsaw anyway.

My CARDS compliment my husbands WOODTURNED projects

Opps changed my mind, I want to hot glue them suckers in..........

All I want for Christams is my two front teeth, sew them suckers back in please Just kidding I am very lucky to have most all of my teeth still. I hope you and your loved ones are having a great day and Merry Christmas.

Great!

Acts of kindness and giving are widely a positive thread in the tapestry of mainly everyone's heart during the holiday Christmas season.

Take a craft term and use it in a sentence of your own creation.

Example: With the Christmas presents I've already given, I seem to be batting a thousand as the recipients all love their gifts.

There are no rules, except to use it in a holiday context.

Sentences will be placed in a poll for voting to win a Christmas token.

Wow! I couldn't stop watching this...thinking of all the things I need to do in that video!

I made the wreath for my daughter a few years ago and have done the christmas cards with my grandaughter, but there are other good crafts and hacks on this video

It's beautiful. You'd never know it started out as a hanger!

Looks to me like there is some talent. (That mesh material is something I've yet to master. :/ )

Wow! all are very beautiful!

I'm not a craft person, I love crafts, but doing them is something I seem to mess up. (I can mess up a craft for a 2 yr old to do).
So a couple years back I was proud of myself when I did this one and it actually looked like it was suppose to.

I started out with a coat hanger and kept bending it until I got a circle. I used branches I cut from the bottom of my Christmas tree and then walked around some wooded area around my apartment complex and picked up all the things you see on this wreath. To the pine cones to the holly and other various leaves. I also used chenille stems and green wire and zip ties to piece them together and to hold other stems in place. I added Christmas Ornaments to the piece and wrapped it up with a bow with some bells on it..

Yes are are dried orange, they smelt lovely when we bought them home in the back of the car but now its outside don't really notice now.

That's exactly what I was thinking, but you asked.

Wow! It's gorgeous! Are they dried orange slices? I bet it smells lovely.

That's so pretty!

I went with my daughter on a course at a local garden centre to make a wreath and this is my finished attempt.

Take a little white paint and paint down the tips of the pine cones.
Make a big bow with tails hanging down. Tie bread tie to the back for hanging.
Hot glue pine cones and pine twigs to the bow tails.
You can put Elmer's glue on the pine cones and sprinkle with glitter also.

Can't beat the price! Thank you, David.

Thanks for sharing

Grandkids and I made some of these last year, they were fun and can be hung any where for a Holiday touch,.

Cut circles of cardboard for back and glitter Christmas wrapping paper for front,

Cut a length you desire of fishing line, glue the back to the front with the fishing line running thru the middle, make them as long or as short as you want,

Very easy and affordable Christmas decorations. ( Made from Coat hangers and tinsel )

I love the Thanksgiving crafts for kids; expecially the popsicle stick scarecrow. I'm going to make those with my grandkiddos.

thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing!

With Thanksgiving coming up soon, I found this website with 48 leftover turkey recipes from Taste of Home and thought I'd share... Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

https://www.tasteofhome.com/collection/delicious-ideas-leftover-turkey/

In charge of activities for the senior apartments, I had to come up with a simple, yet elegant (as much as possible) holiday craft for our residents to make in one sitting.

So, I ordered wooden napkin rings, paints/paint brushes, and a variety of small wooden cutout ornaments.

They will paint the wooden rings and cutouts as they wish, and use a variety of beads/buttons/ribbon, etc to decorate them. I will then hot-glue the ornaments to the napkin rings.

The craft will be hand-painted holiday napking rings that they can use to adorn their tables or give as gifts.

When we complete the project, I'll try to add pictures here.

PLEASE...share YOUR holiday crafts as well. Always a token for those who participate.

Ginny, I'm very proud of him. I was sorry for interrupting the theme here which is Thanksgiving.

Vicky you never need to be sorry for that talented son of yours. Be proud and share other things he's done.

Wow! Very talented! 🎃🎃

Amazing! Definitely worth the post!

Dont apologise. Its brilliant

Worth a double brag!!

Looks great!

Those are pretty awesome.. Bless his

Wow, Vicki! That is Awesome!

Excellent!

Very good job

Thank you. Yes. Scrapbook paper. Then the letters were cut out of cardboard, painted with glue and then glittered. Hole punched and connected with tied ribbon and rickrack. That first year we made it (which is when the picture is from), we went outside to get real leaves to stick between the sections.

It's beautiful. So, they are scrapbook pages? Clever idea!

thank you

I love it, very nice

My daughter and I made this years ago using scrapbooking supplies. I hang it every year.

Thanksgiving seems to take a back seat to Halloween and Christmas, but to me it's a wonderful holiday - my favorite, actually.

Please share any Thanksging crafts -OR- foods that you'll be using/serving this season of gratitude.

A token will be awarded for your contribution.

That is really pretty.

Love it!!

If you don't have a mini ice pick, then use a large common nail that would make the larger whole for the stem to fit in.

Oh great idea! thanks!

Why not... either glue them on or use a small nail hole punch (small ice pick) to make holes to stick them in.

I wonder is you could stick artificial flowers all around in a pumpkin?

The shell boxes are really lovely, sally.

Oh, like plaster

The filler is what we use to fill small holes in walls at home.

And what a gorgeous collection of shells!

I was curious about how you kept them on there, too. What is "filler?"

So pretty!

White filler. That are not too heavy.
I am not sure how long the shells will say on. I have given them to my four year old granddaughter who helped me collect the shells.

Nice.......are they heavy? What did you use to hold them together?

Nice

Love them...great job!

Lovely!!!

It's gorgeous! Love it!

That is really nice!

That's really pretty!

Found this, thought it was cute fall décor

That is GORGEOUS!!!

Thank you

So pretty!

I made a box with paper of falling leaves. As it is that time of year, I thought it was appropriate!

I can't wait to try some of these with my grandkids.

Ohhh, how adorable! (Love the cake-pan wagon!) What are the wheels made of?

This was made out of items you can get at the Dollar Tree. A friend made it for me. (stuff inside can be switched out for each holiday)

You're most welcome

I find that the values/talents passed down from grandparents are priceless.

Thank you for sharing

My first paint by numbers I did the other week. It was great fun and really relaxing.

I downloaded a paint by numbers app on my mobile. This is one of the pictures

I'm sure she will appreciate the baby pic! The card is beautiful

I love it. I know if was me, I would love the baby picture too.

This is for my lovely granddaughter. Not sure she will appreciate her baby photo though lol

Sounds good! How big so you cut the pieces? Seems like it would drip a lot in the dehydrator

Watermelon was so good because it was like Sugar flavored watermelon..

Me too! I love my dehydrated apples and kiwi

I would put it in my dehydrator, have done that with figs, grapes, watermelon apples, bananas and quite a few more..

Probably no one does it like that anymore. This happened about 50 years ago

Never seen that done, learn something all time

Yes, after we washed, peeled and sliced the apples we laid them on a large screen with legs on it outside then put another screen on top of the to keep bugs and critters off. Then after a few days they would be dried. Then she would freeze them or make pies

My maternal grandmother used to live with us and she's taught me how to cook, crochet, knit and one of my favorite this is teaching me about the Bible..

The relationships between grandmother and granddaughter is full of love and great memories. My 14-year old granddaughter will call me on occasion and ask how much of what ingredients we put in the baked goodies that we made together. (Because I don't often use normal "measuring systems", she's learning all about the words "about that much." LOL)

You dried the apples first to make the pie? I'm curious to know about that.

I always helped one of my grandma's make dried apples for apple pies while sneaking a few here and there lol
My other grandma taught me how to cook

My grandmother taught me how to make chocolate sauce to put on biscuits nothing to do with sewing or crafting. But as I am a grandmother I have shown my grandaughter how to draw and how to put sparkles on paper

Did your grandmother teach you any special "tricks" to sewing or any type of crafting? I wasn't fortunate enough to know my grandmothers. but my daughter spent a summer with my mom who taught her how to quilt. The special part about the quilt they made together was that each piece of fabric was from some family member's clothing. When my mom passed, my daughter spoke at her funeral on how the quilt "tied the family together" for life...and there after.

Would you share your sewing/crafting memories of your grandmother with us?
