I decided to get an earlier start on creating my Christmas projects this year. I try to come up different Christmas Crafts annually. My friends and family visit in November so they can buy some my Christmas creations. Last year my Christmas craft stick window scenes were best sellers.   I recently browsed a few online sites and videos. I was inspired by some of the Christmas water  bottle creations. I have been saving water bottles this year. I didn't have craft ideas on how to use them.    There were some Christmas   Bells featured. They were pretty and didn't seem too complicated to create. I rummaged through my craft bags and discovered that I already had most of items that was  needed for  the Christmas Bell.

   I am still feeling a  creative vibe after completing  my Polka Dot Earrings Project . I have been looking  for new designs to use   on the rest of my adhesive colored foam sheets.  The   online jewelry sites offered a few interesting ideas. Eureka!

I would never even considered   using some of the fabric for earrings.  The BoHo style wrap is how I wear my bandanas.

  When I was a busy working mother, I didn't know  about health awareness   support groups. Years later my mother told me she was invited to an Alzheimer's   Luncheon. I learned more about this support group online. Their theme color was purple. Now my church celebrates Cancer Awareness annually. We have a luncheon on Saturday. On Sunday, we have  a speaker, the ladies   wear pink,  and  the   men wear the Cancer Awareness pins. We also make donation to the Cancer Awareness group. I was inspired to make some Awareness pins for me and my Mom to wear.  I already had plenty of  craft supplies on hand. Here are details for my project: AWARENESS HEART PIN PROJECT: 2 INCH STEMSHEART TEMPLATE FOAM SHEETS , PINK, PURPLE, GREEN ASSORTED COLOR GEM STICKERS GLITTER ACRYLIC NAIL POLISH : PURPLE, PINK, SILVER SMALL SAFETY PINS TOOLS: SCISSORS  GLUE GUN WITH GLUE STICKS INSTRUCTIONS: USE TEMPLATE TO DRAW HEARTS ON BACK SIDE  OF FOAM SH...
