Scrapbooking is not only an enjoyable (and addictive) pastime — it can be a method to protect treasured memories. But there is no need to select Scrapbook Themes just simply because they’re popular or can be bought in a pre-packaged package. It’s more significant to select the memories which you feel are worth the additional work of protecting within a scrapbook which will last a life-time then figure out from that just what the scrapbook style ought to be.

Our holiday crafting is done for this year, at least I think it is.   I have made all of my tags with embellishments from spare scrapbooking items,  decorated packages with homemade items from polymer clay, the house is done, I think. Each friend and family member received their handmade Christmas cards (I hope).  So I am done!  For now.

I have a lot of ideas for next year and hope to post some of the more successful ones here.

Thanks for supporting my blog and have a safe and happy holiday season!

Bats can add some spooky fun to your Halloween jewelry collection.  A couple of years ago a friend gave me these to use as a decoration for Halloween. With a little wire and some ear hooks, I quickly turned them into a pair of spooky Halloween earrings.  Which after I made them, remembered I didn’t have pierced ears!  So I gave them to my daughter in law, who turned them into a necklace.  (she doesn’t have pierced ears either).

So this summer during a boring, rainy afternoon, I got out my polymer clay and make a dozen or so bats!  I made them into earrings, necklaces and pins and sold them all at a garage sale.

I have a small bat cookie cutter that I used to cut out the bat shape and the rest was just filling in the texture and putting in a pair of orange eyes.   They were very fun to make, and a hit at my garage sale!
