DIY: Rope Wrapped Apples Look Great Year Round
If you are looking for a quick craft to add some cozy rustic charm to your home, this dear readers might just do the trick. These DIY rope covered apples are so simple to make that you can surely whip up a whole bowl full in an hour or so. Of course if you start calling all your friends to tell them about this great craft you found, well that may just increase your crafting time, so I’d say craft and then tell! Or in this case, Pin, if you would be so kind? Rope, in this case the thinnest one I could find at my local hardware store, is…

Welcome To Craft Schooling Sunday!
Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday, thanks so much for joining me here! We are now in the Jewish month of Cheshvan, which is considered to be a somewhat sad month as it is the only month of the year in which there are no Jewish holidays or fast days! So now is perfect time to bring some light into the month of Cheshvan by getting creative! And of course, since spending too much time poking around on the internet never really leads to actually creating, there is more than enough inspiration right here on CJM and on Craft Schooling Sunday to get you…

Fabulous Wire Frame Tree Sculptures As Summer Street Art In Montreal
One of the things that Canada does really well, and Montreal in particular is celebrating the outdoors during the summer, as winter is harsh and very long! This summer in Montreal we came across many many examples of street celebrations and I especially loved these vibrant metal trees defined with strips of fabricm delineating an area in downtown Montreal used for lunch time concerts….a lovely program and wonderful sculptures that were made without investing a huge sum……I am assuming they are saved from year to year, at least hoping that is the case! And this dear readers can certainly be a source of inspiration for your own creative fall crafting,…

The DIY Five Minute Paper Plate Clock
Who wouldn’t want to make this fun DIY paper plate clock, especially since it takes just five minutes? True you’ll need to have the clock mechanism and a favorite paper plate on hand, but the rest is quite simply one of my very favorite projects. Add a touch of Fall color to your home, or a little something unexpected for a very small investment, and you can always change the plate when your heart desires! And now you have a great excuse to buy some cute paper plates, or a way to use up a few plates that are hanging around with no purpose in site, ready?

Printing With Leaves Is A Perfect Fall Craft
Once upon a time, I posted about printing with leaves as a perfect Spring craft, and I still stand behind that, only now after coming across this photo of some leaf and pod printing I did for a Jewish journal, I’d like to add that printing with leaves is a perfect Fall craft, especially when one omits the bright green and uses deep purples and blues! And if you’re really adventurous, after trying your hand at printing on paper, get some fabric paint and make a gorgeous rustic table cloth or even a runner. So, depending on where you ilve, and whether there are leaves year round, now might be…

DIY Giant Paper Flowers Make The Perfect Fall Centerpiece
Looking for a great idea for a DIY centerpiece or a quick way to make a statement in your home this Fall? Look no further! No pumpkins (though admittedly the little white ones would look lovely here), no fall leaves, no burlap, no apples, instead how about some giant paper poppies in neutral Fall colors? These oversized flowers made from large sheets of ultra heavy paper come together quickly, and whether you choose to make just one or a whole bunch, I know you won’t regret it…….in fact you may even find yourself dancing with joy. Really!
