Personalized Gift Ideas To Give Your Sustainable Friend
Giving gifts is a wonderful way to show you care, and it is well worth the time and effort to get it right, as a gift that is truly personal is the very best way to go. It is true, sometimes it is the thought that has to count as we don’t know the person well enough to be totally on target, but if that is the case I’d say go with sustainable and eco conscious gifts, as you really can’t go too wrong with lovely wooden brushes and handmade soap, or an interesting market bag! Have some friends and family or even coworkers that would appreciate sustainable gifts? Keep…

Welcome To Craft Schooling Sunday!
Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday, thanks so much for joining me here! Phew, after a very busy Purim holiday on Friday that went straight into shabbat, we are all exhausted, but had a wonderful action packed holiday. Friday afternoon is generally a time to prepare for shabbat in a hopefully relaxed stress free way, and some are even able to take a nap, as they have done most of the prep work on Thursday. This year, it was as if shabbat wasn’t going to come, and those of us in charge had to steer the ship in that direction by trying to clean up and do all the usual preparations…

A Mixed Media Peacock Painting For Purim!
When Purim is at the doorstep and there is so much to do, and yet this year with no crowd to host the pressure to do it all is somewhat reduced, so you paint a peacock, because it reminds you of royalty and castles and castle gardens, which certainly could be connected to Purim! Okay, that does not mean that there is not loads of bags of groceries and all kinds of preparations to do, but hey, when you are on a mission to be an artist, you know one that actually sells their art, well you have to show up and make art, lots of it, even when Purim…

DIY Carrot Gift Tags For Purim!
The pressure is on folks, with Purim happening tomorrow night, and that means I must fit in a few creative projects, because otherwise the holiday just wouldn’t feel right, to me that it, I don’t think anyone will notice. Thanks to the large plastic bag pom poms on our living room now for months, well the house looks like it is ready for a party anytime, phew! That said, the mishloach manot, gifts of food for neighbors and friends and teachers (I’m done with that!) and folks we need for acknowledge or give thanks to, does need to happen! For the past two years I’ve given everyone a really nice…

Cutest Ever Clown Cake Or Cupcake Topper Craft!
DIY clown cake toppers that could also be adorable cupcake toppers are not only perfect for a circus theme birthday, but also Purim, coming up this week!

A Giant Origami Clown Dressed Up As A Bird, For Purim!
I am reposting this because it is one of my all time favorites, and really festive. Plus you can use wrapping paper that you have hanging around, and it is the perfect size to put on your front door. Enjoy, and excuse me while I go figure out what decorations to make this year? Truthfully, the house is already decorated with lots of plastic bag pom poms and all my winter crafting, so it already looks like Purim, but there are a few things I’d like to fit in, on the other hand the art is calling! A giant origami clown makes a great decoration for the front door especially…
