Little chests

Hello dear readers,

Family health issues take more of my time lately and keep me away from my blog.  I sadly had to stop my volunteer work with the handicapped ladies at the center but hope to return in the near future. It has been a very rewarding time and almost all the stuff created by these  great ladies was sold out.
Here are some tiny pipe cleaners animals I taught them on the last day we worked together.  We had great fun doing them.







When using craft sticks for making small furniture pieces we almost always throw away the rounded ends.  I kept some of these parts in various sizes hoping to find a way to use them.  I came up with
an idea of little chests made of egg carton covered craft sticks.










I wish you all a blessed weekend.

  6. I'm very sorry that you're not able to continue with your wonderful work with your talented ladies - the tiny "pipers" turned out so cute. Your chests are such a brilliant idea in every way - it's great that you've found such a fantastic use for the left overs. My best wishes to you and your family - we all love to read your posts and every visit of yours on our blogs is a gift. But not it's more important that you save your time and energy for your family...
