Crafters- What are you making???

[skand]

Scrambled, I am in the middle of fixing up a wire basket. So far, I just need to finish sewing, HA! the lining for it, so I can stuff some eggs in for the Ms. Chris (pastor's wife).
Look how far I've gone! Last year, I wasnt doing anything crafty, this year, I'm rigging up wire baskets, sewing lining, crocheting, buying then molesting fabric... the list goes on and on..

Macrame cord is much nicer to work with.
The word "Hemp" always makes me think of good things, but the cord is an aggravation!!

I have some macrame rope stuff, two big spools of it. Have NO idea on how to start with it. My mom used to make those plant hanger things, but quit after I got interested in it. lol

Did someone say beading? What type of things do you make Skand? I make necklaces, bracelets, and earrings, but like everything else I make I'm not really prolific at it. I have a hard time coming up with ideas. You really should drag your beads out sk, really you should.

Okay, I see where Caydence got ahold of the keyboard and I missed it. lol
Beads eh? lol I could play with them all day, minus the part where I accidently knock something over, then spend the rest of the day picking up scattered beads, which isnt such a good thing now we have hardwood flooring in the living room.
I can do pretty much anything with beads if you give me enough time to play first. Ive made candle glower things, you make it fit around the votive candle holder, then when it's lit, it glows all pretty and dust collecty... Dolls, jewelery. I'd be happy if I had a bedazzler and an endless supply of beads.

Oh and does anyone have the plans/pattern for making those wonderful saddles to fit on the hens' backs? I have a few gals sporting the bald patch look. lol

I use the small waxed cord lines. Sold at the same aisle in the crafts store where they carry the hemp. Love the waxed cotton line!!!

And I know all about beads on a wooden floor.
Had some elastic cord break as I was tying a bracelet the other day... It was AWFUL! We're still pulling beads outa dust bunnies...

Here are the chicken diapers. They are a little big on Mabel but shes really little. I gave her room to grow. It helps if they have more of a tail nub too. Silkies are lacking this at a young age. I am thinking about making these for sale. If anyone is interested PM me. I'm thinking $10 and $2 shipping.

They look GREAT Chix! I can't wait to get mine! Good Job!
