Two Ways to Make Paper People Chains
With the start of the school year, my son and I've been talking a lot friendships- what it takes to make and be a friend. I guess all that talk about friendships must have seeped into my crafting too, because I found myself with the great urge to cut out some paper people chains. Inspired by this wikiHow post I cut out and doodled some kid paper chains. Yup. Today's post is going old-school with 2 fun paper people chain designs.

Easy DIY Marbled Clay Covered Pens
Ever swoon while you're walking through stationary stores? I looove pretty pens and paper. But I don't always like the price tag that's associated with them. Since we've been doing tons of clay projects lately, my son and I tried our hand at making clay covered pens.
I'll be honest. I wasn't too hopeful about the results. Plastic pens in ovens? Urmm... I worried that they would catch on fire... or melt. But it didn't happen! We turned a couple of el-cheapo-freebie pens into some fancy-shmancy marbled ones. Ooh la la! Aren't they gorgeous?

Clay Portrait Pendant Necklaces
My son started elementary school this week. *Sob* It's been such a happy, bittersweet couple of days. Recently we've been creating a lot of little trinkets with clay. (Have you seen our clay outer space necklace and clay dream catcher?) So I asked him to make some clay portrait pendant necklaces with me before school started. This way I can wear them and remember him while he's away.

Mini Painted Sponge Christmas Trees
Can you believe that it's already mid November? Time sure flies by quickly! Even though it's not yet Thanksgiving, my son's already asked me to put up the Christmas tree and make Christmas Crafts.
Well, we still haven't put up the tree, but we have been crafting more together at night. Recently, we turned a bunch of old makeup sponges into mini Christmas trees. I know, they're not as beautiful as the real thing... but for now, they'll do!
