Thursday:The Importance of the Arts—Creativity with Crafts
Creativity with Crafts
I was disappointed to find out that Martha Stewart’s kids magazine is not longer in publication. 
While in the grocery store, I saw a special issue, and it is full of great ideas for crafts
These caught my eye and I knew my 2 year old would really enjoy doing this with me
Here are the instructions:
Collect pretty buttons and string them on elasticized cords for stretchy bracelets to be worn or swapped. Shank buttons (with smooth faces) overlap jauntily, while standard buttons, strung through the holes in their centers, lie flat against the wrist. Create some to match every outfit.
Bracelet How-To
Cut elasticized cord long enough to wrap around the wrist twice. To make a standard-button bracelet, thread elastic through from back to front and then to the back again. For four-hole buttons, thread elastic diagonally through two holes on opposite corners.
For a shank-button bracelet, thread elastic through shanks, turning every other button upside down to overlap. Once you’ve strung on enough buttons to reach around the wrist, thread both ends of elastic through a metal crimp tube, available in beading shops, and squeeze tightly with pliers. Trim excess elastic.
You can purchase cord and metal crimp tube from oriental trading.
Here are our results:

Those are adorable!!
Those do not sound to hard to make at all!
One thing that I have noticed is that there are a whole lot of earthquakes these days. Big ones too. So what does that have to do with anything? Easy is as easy does is what I always say. So I found an easy way to make money. This thing I found is actually some software. The fact is, that this software is 100% legal, “white hat” and ethical, that even giant enterprises use it. The software needs very little babysitting so it’s basically set it up and forget it. This super affiliate push button software is the real thing, so if you’re planning to use it unethically, or use it for scam purposes, this software isn’t for you! It really is as simple as downloading the software and then pushing a button. Basically what it does is bring a stream of free visitors to any website. You might be tempted to try to disect this software in order to ‘see the magic’ but why bother? It’s a pretty amazing piece of software and it just simply… works.
