Craft Corner ~ Veteran's Day
Posted 10:29 AM, Nov. 2, 2009
![]() I tried finding some fun, unique, or attractive crafts to link to for this week, but didn't come up with much. Most of the crafts I found were really meant for the 4th of July, but could also double for Veteran's Day.
However, my Mother gave me a great idea, and so here it is! Knit Your Bit was started by The National World War II Museum in 2006. I couldn't really find anywhere that told why it was started, but my guess is that it shows appreciation to the veterans, as well as keeps them warm. All you have to do is select a pattern, knit a scarf, include washing instructions and a few other things, and mail it to the address that is provided. Don't forget to check out the Knit Your Bit Blog for updates and information on this awesome project! Miss Eyebright loves crafts of all kinds; especially knitting.

Craft Corner ~ Cooking Up Some Fun Crafts!
Posted 11:10 AM, Oct. 19, 2009
Cooking and crafts go together, in a homey sort of way. It's amazing though, how many tutorials there are for sewn food, crocheted cakes, and knitted cookies. I'm not really sure what the point is, but if you're interested, here are a few, along with some other, more useful tutorials.

![]() I love books, and almost everything that has to do with books. That includes making books, and making things for books! Books can be made in an infinite variety of ways, shapes, sizes, styles, and colors. They can be short or tall, round or square, or even have a more complicated shape. Don't forget book accessories! Bookmarks, book covers, and bookshelves also offer incredible variety and an opportunity for creativity. So, what are you waiting for?
