Crafters- What are you making???

Wow, what a nice tote! I really like the way you framed the block and the fabrics you chose. It's very pretty. I've never used fusible batting before, but I sure like the idea!

horsejody, you sound just like me. Once I see the pattern and read it a little I make my own pattern where it is easier for me. Thanks so much for those sites.

I like to cross stitch ornaments. I either find a pattern I like or make up my own. i usually start right about now, but I have so much more to do before i get to sit for the winter! everyone loves them, and dis[lays them with their dcorations. i eventually want to have a tree with all ornaments that are x-stitched. Any one got any good patterns?

Has anyone heard of snowman poop?

(Hot Chocolate mix with marshmallows in it. My nephew still talks about it.)

Yes Snow man poop is quite a thing around here for winter for the kids. There is some kind of little poem that goes with it don't remember it though .

I have never made this but found the recipe and poem..looks good!!


Snowman Poop

A popular request here, and a fun gift to make. Give someone a bag of snowman poop along with this poem.


Materials Needed:


Zip-Top Sandwich Bag
Marshmallows
(Either mini or full size)
Paper
Optional: Glitter, Sequins
Instructions:

Simply put a handfull of marshmallows in the zip-top sandwich bag to be the "poop". We included a bit of white glitter and snowflake shaped sequins but this is entirely optional.


For the best results, the size of tag is supposed to be 7" x 5". Fold the tag in half and staple it along the sealed, top edge of the baggie.

NOTE: If you want the "poop" to be edible, do not include the glitter or sequins. You can however, purchase edible glitter! If you are like me and have an excess of craft supplies, specifically pom-poms, you could use white pom-poms in the place of marshmallows!

The poker ornament is cute. I need to come up with a bingo one for my MIL. Thanks for sharing.

 

[Scrambled Egg]

Hey Hats, I bet you could easily make a cute bingo ornament!! I'm sure there are tons on line but using the poker one for inspiration, I bet you could make a very cute one!! Bingo cards copied and resized smaller and placed like the cards and then maybe hang an empty marker from the bottom! Course you and I have both decided already that we have too many projects..but, what the heck, what's one more!!! lol!! Good luck!!
