Spooky Glitter House

I have a craft class where I live called, Scarlett O'Hara's Craft Room

2 reasons...

First, I live in a place modeled after Gone With the Wind. Our main activity center looks like, "Tara".

Second, I repurpose materials like Scarlett did when she made that amazing green dress out of the old velvet drapes after the war.

This  foot tall house is made from cereal boxes. (Sorry about the blur...)

I used my Cricut machine to create all the parts.

If you live in my area, check out my classes page.

Enjoy the Journey,

Are You Scared Yet?

Using recycled materials, I have created a 12-inch Scary House using my Cricut Machine. This is going to be my very first, "Pin This" class, to be held at the Leesburg Center for the Arts, here in Florida.

Last year, I offered a class to make three little Winter card/ornaments/gifts using a similar technique.

This house can be tented over a battery operated candle, and looks so scary lit up!

Ha-ha-ha...Eeek!

Enjoy your day, and be sure to stay tuned for my new stamp sets coming out in September for Flourishes!

All That Glitters

Aren't these cute?  This is the craft for November in

Scarlett O'Hara's Craft Room!

 

These 3 adorable buildings are actually created from

cereal boxes. They can be sent in their envelope to a special friend

or relative, then set up on a tabletop with a battery operated tea light beneath.

 

OR

 

They can be hung on the tree!

 

The windows are vellum, to let the light shine through. Since these buildings are not actually decorated for the holidays, they can be enjoyed all winter long.

 

These are entirely covered in fine glitter, even the darling little trees.

The inside is "wall papered" with Victorian style paper.

 

Add a little note on the back with the date

 to turn these into keepsakes to last a lifetime!

 

Class is November 1st in the Manor. If you live in the area, you are invited to sign up.

 

$20 includes everything you need to create these beauties.

 

Hope to see you there,

 

 

Scarlett O'Hara at the Craft Show

 

My first craft show.  I wanted to get the word out about Scarlett O'Hara's Craft Room, which I opened last month in my community.

 

The response was amazing!  I will need to expand my class schedule, to include two sessions. I have over 25 people signed up.

 

 

The stars are made out of cereal boxes, so I put the work out to all my friends to round up all their boxes and get them to me. I will need 1 1/2 boxes per person...that's a lot of boxes.

 

 

The craft show was a great place to run into friends and acquaintances who I have not seen in awhile.

 

While teaching is my passion, art is my love.

 

 

Until we meet again,



Crafty Ladies!

 

My very first,

"Scarlett O'Hara's Craft Room" class!

 

Everyone was so enthusiastic and energetic..we all made some new crafty friends.

 

Here's what we made...

 

It was a beautiful day, and we worked inside and out.

 

 

We even had a couple of visitors, who joined right in with the laughter.

 

Hope they'll join in next time!

 

My next class is in November. I'll post pictures of the upcoming projects soon.

 

Until we meet again,

 



Pumpkins and Burlap
