Peace Craft Love Podcast Episode 3; Gift Ideas You Can Craft

This weeks Peace Craft Love Podcast is a little different. The sisters decided to share some easy, fun crafts you can make for those on your gift list. Plus, one bonus gift tip.

First,  the winner of our giveaway from last time, was announced. Remember, the prize was a pattern from Erica Arndt...Erica Arndt's Scrap Bin Pattern. Congratulations to our winner!

Now for some fun gifts YOU can make!

The first idea is something Terry made for Tammy about 30 years ago! Holiday table cloths! Very easy sewing project for even the beginner sewer.

Idea number 2...Draw string totes. Tammy shows off a beautiful elephant tote she made. There are quite a few tutorials on YouTube, but this one is the one Tammy used. Terry shows a couple of her little draw string bags she makes for some of her jewelry she sells in her shop. 

 The third idea...loom knit hats. These are super easy! You don't even have to know how to knit! Tammy shows a couple of looms she picked up online. If you want to use more of a bulky yarn you will need this loom. The hat she shows off was made from some nice quality yarn; Begonia Medium and Machu Picchu 4 yarn

Idea #4 Tammy shows some simple, elastic skirts she has made for her dolls and grand-nieces. Youtube is a great place to go for so many great ideas, and she found a simple pattern at Made Everyday with Dana.

Idea 5...Terry explains all about lanyards...lanyard necklaces and face mask lanyards

And idea #6 is a great idea for all those essential oil lovers on our gift list...necklaces and then ornaments for the tree and your car! Terry shows some of her creations to give you ideas on what you can make. She does have a little tutorial on how to make them too!

Lastly, the sisters talk about their experience with Lori Prell Studio. Lori is an artist from Central Florida, who will not only paint a special piece for commission, but also offers paint parties. If you live in the area, a paint party would be a great gift, but if you are not local, Lori does a great job working with you on a special piece. The sister's talk about their experiences with Lori.

Terry and Tammy love sharing their crafting experiences and expertise with you. Podcasts are posted on Saturday's...bi-weekly. Hope to see ya next time!

In the meantime, we wish you Peace, Love and a lot of Crafting...
