  I'm sorry you had such a problem John. I've always received wonderful customer service from the Michael's that I... I do agree...Michael's is much better than Joanne Fabric although sometimes Joanne's has nicer Christmas decor. ...

  Yeah, I think that's a ripoff but it sure comes in handy when you don't have the time to make something yourself.... I think that's a ripoff but it sure comes in handy when you don't have the time to make something yourself. ...

  Baskets Comment

  I've gotten tons of baskets at the craft store near me and use them around the holidays for all sorts of things. I'll... throw a bunch of pine cones in them, or I'll use them to put all my Christmas cards in. They're very versatile....

  Finger_Print_Egg Comment

  I don't think I could do this project...I'm pretty clumsy. LOL. You'd definitely need a steady hand for this one. I... for this one. I remember we had to do something like this when I was in grade school. Everyone's eggs were breaking!...

  Cute idea and easy!! I can see my kids using buttons as ornaments. My kids are off school starting Friday - I think... Friday - I think I'll have them make these to take over their aunt's house for her Christmas party on Saturday....

  My brother is getting into these again. He made so many of these when he was younger my parents didn't know what to do... my parents didn't know what to do with them. Now he's back into them and wants to start collecting them with his kids....

  Has_it_lost_its_popularity Comment

  The only thing that I remember hearing a lot about it was in the 70's. You can see a lot of it on TV from shows (like... Kotter I can remember seeing that hanging plant thing and it was made out of macrame) back then but that's about it....

  Stockings_for_kids_to_make Comment

  Last year, someone in my daughter's class filled one of those little stockings and handed them out to the class. Each... had their name glittered on it. It was such a cute gift...certainly a big undertaking for her Mom who helped her out. ...

  Cross_Stitch_and_Carpal_Tunnel Comment

  I'd need a magnifying glass if I attempted to cross stitch. My eyesight has gotten worse over the years. Isn't there... has gotten worse over the years. Isn't there some kind of lap table that you can buy that does have a magnifyer on it?...

  My sister in law has a basement in her home and it is divided into four different rooms. One of those rooms is her... baskets and labeled. I would LOVE to have something like that. Unfortunately where we live basements are pretty rare....

  Bead_curtains Comment

  That can be a very expensive project. I've seen a lot of the beads that you can hang in Target...I'm sure they have it... sure they have it at Wal-Mart too. I've seen them mostly in the bedding department - with all the kid stuff....

  School_picture_craft Comment

  Great idea Snowbird. I'll have to remember that one. My mother in law asked me this year to have the kids make her a... them to the craft store and have them pick out what they want to make. It really gets their creative juices flowing!!...

  Crocheting Comment

  I haven't crocheted in years. I would like to start up again. I remember the first time I crocheted - I made a pot... once. I told her not to use it anymore - it had too many holes in it and I was afraid she was going to burn her hand. ...

  Glass_Blowing Comment

  I have seen so many TV shows about glass blowing and find it quite interesting. I wish they offered a class like that near where I live. I've never seen anything like it being offered even at the community college level. I'll have to ask...
