Mirror Mirror
If you're interested in seeing your creations - graphic or otherwise - in an objective way, hold the item up in front of and facing a mirror from a distance of 3 to 5 feet.. You'll be better able to critique your item and tell where another detail may be added, or another color repeated, or an area needs to be broken up with an addition of something.I rely on this method with everything I make and it never fails to give me success!

Adding Glitter to Crepe Paper Pinwheels
Saturday, August 22, 2009
I was having trouble getting glitter on to crepe paper evenly until I ran across this tutorial by Thrift Goodness . Her tutorial makes this whole process so much easier than the way I was doing it by shaking on the glitter ( what a mess !). So get out the glitter and crepe paper and get to crafting.

Halloween Blog
Tuesday, August 11, 2009

Fall is probably my most favorite time of the year with the crispness in the air and the vibrant colors of the trees. I love Halloween and all the decorations full of bats, cats, ghost and witches and don't you just love the way black and orange look. There are so many great crafts and recipes for this time of the year so I decided to start a blog which will be filled with recipes, patterns and crafts for the fall season and Halloween holiday. You can find it listed under my blogs. If you have something you would like to share please email me debbie@2oldcrows.com
