PATCHAS CRAFTS

PAPER PENDANTS!

METHOD:

I use tyvek paper, available online...I paint it black on both sides and then use irridescent powders to highlight,

I then use a heat gun to allow it to curl and shrink....it has a life of its own, very delightful unplanned results happen.

Glue on added embelishments , put a chain on it and volia, you have a great pendant.

I sell them for $20.00 each.

COFFEE CANS

COMES IN 2 SIZES.

HIDE YOUR TREASURES !

I have a lot of coffee cans stored in my garage, if any crafter has more ideas I am open to suggestions, let's share.

METHOD:I cover the whole can in pretty fabric and glue wooden birds on top with flowers etc. and it makes a great eye-catcher for any room. Great for buttons, money, notions, wrapped candy, etc.

I sell them for $25.00 each

some with hand sculpted figures on top can be anywhere from $50.00 to $100.00 each

Brooches out of spoons.

I am open to suggestions from other crafters....please contact me and let's exchange ideas

Brooches and earrings from broken jewelry.

These are just a few of over a hundred brooches I have. I sell them at $20.00 each and they go very well at craft fairs.

SCULPTED FACES INTO PINS.

I can double a pin as a pendnat by adding a necklace through the pin back.

I use polymer clay to sculpt with. They are not molds so each one is original. You can get molds to make it easier for you.

Old earrings and broken jewlry added makes it into a one-of-a-kind piece.

I sell them for $20.00 each.
