Wet Felted Spheres

Image
This week I start teaching a weekly class at The Minnetonka Center for the Arts about Wet and Dry Felting and wanted to let you in on a little bit of it too. This step by step tutorial teaches you how to make felted balls that will be a component in a necklace which I will show later on. Start with 1/2 oz. corriedale wool. I get mine at one of two places, The Textile Center shop and The Fibers Studio . You can also pick it up on Etsy . This time I am using this variegated dyed one purchased at The Textile Center . The corriedale at The Fiber Studio is a better quality wool but it only comes in solid colors. Trade off, I suppose. The soap is from Kiss My Face , a pure olive oil soap. Fill a bowl with water and place the soap in it and mush it around. I like to do it this way until the soapy water opaque and slightly yellow then I take the bar of soap out. When wet felting if you fill your bowl with warm or hot water it speeds up the process. I want beginners to use room temp water (so...

Another Idea for Using the Striped Pages in my Cocoa Daisy Notebook!

Image
  I’ve found another fun and functional way to use the always-requested striped pages in my Cocoa Daisy notebooks that I get in my Planner Kit ! I'm calling it my “Currently” page! I wanted to track something that would be meaningful not just at the beginning of the month but also the end! Covering the Days of the week with assorted stickers and dies cuts created this column of things that either reminded me of or inspired my September to be. For the rest of the striped section, I divided it in half for my currently topics first half of the month -'ings' and have a space for the other half at the end of the month. Using the Planner Sticker Kit , I created little boxes on the facing page so I could track either my moods or something that happend during the month which reminded me of that emotion.  I tend to usually use these stickers in my daily pages to mark the emotion of a certain task but in this frame of mind I think its fun to use them in a memory keeping sort of w...

Notebook Bookmark

Image
  Having a weekly overview both in schedule and in tasks is very important to me along with a daily page in my other planner. Taking a notebook apart to reassemble it in a way that works for me needs will give me that stability along with the variety that Cocoa Daisy affords. After slicing the stripe pages away from their counterparts, I numbered the weekly pages and mounted them on a piece of planner kit  cardstockpaper.  Using the included permanent marker I wrote out each week on the large self adhesive tabs so I could find my weeks easier. On the backside of the bookmark, I punched and attached the grid paper using some ribbon.  The alphas from the planner kit sticker sheet gave me a chance of labeling each of the weekly agenda item pages.  And instead of having that paper flopping around without some stability, I attached a planner kit sticky pocket to the bottom of the bookmark. That way, when not in use, the extra pages can be tucked away and decorated al...
