Vicki Vergas-Gannuscio What a cute bouquet!!

Think-ets...great!... (Along with the pouch comes rules for a few games, such as “I’ll take one away, and you tell me which one is missing”, or “Make a story about the item you’re holding”) - could make your own

Amanda Elk it's a little, um, "ick" for me, but only because I know what goes into taxidermy. It basically implied that you killed a unicorn and chopped off it's head...

Tracey Erickson Yourself] Christmas is coming! DIY lovely poppy flower gift flower decoration - be sure to use polyester fabric (the kind of umbrella material), the fabric cut into discs of different sizes, the use of heat to the edge of the petals candles burning inside edge of the volume shape, the petals cascading together, sew with cotton flower, glue a small flower behind the acrylic plate - and then fixed in the gift box and you're done it! - this is a translation from google translate-

Angela Coffman Angie, Any synthetic like polyester or nylon will do this. But natural fabrics like wool, silk or cotton won't.

Michelle Cowey When my mother was a cake decorator in the 70s, my father made all her icing/cookie cutters out of empty food tins. Surely they're safe to use on ... food. There was the safe edge to push on (the thicker bit around the rim) and the sharper cutting edge (cut, and filed smooth). Not sure how he did the bends and creases, but I'm sure it's not too hard to work out, and they would be stronger than these. Mum still has them, so they have certainly lasted!

{DIY} Balloon balls or juggling balls. These are fun to make and fun to play with and last a long time...

Jennie Davis Much nicer feeling is to use corn flour/cornstarch. Squishier and perfect for stress balls.

classic crepe paper flower: 1. Using the rolls of party crepe paper-cut one yard then stitch along one edge with a large gathering stitch (by hand or machine); 2. Gather, then tie knots at both ends; 3. Glue with a hot glue gun while spiralling onto a circle of paper and then glue another circle onto the front; 4. With a pair of pinking sheers, cut around the edges of the flower. You can let this be the finished flower; 5. Or... line the edges with mod podge and sprinkle glitter... or paint the entire area of crepe paper with glitter glue.
