Watch my LifetimeTV.com video NOW!



I am so excited! My Valentine's Day video is now ready to see on Lifetime TV's website at www.MyLifetime.com, where I show how to create a beaded Valentine Suncatcher. I made it with glass beads that catch the sunlight in your window, or you can give it as a Valentine's Day gift. You could also make your beaded heart to hang from a chandelier above your dining table as a party decoration. If you use it for a party, it would look terrific to put more beads on wires for napkin rings, and to wind around the stems of goblets for more party decorations.

Another great idea if you are having a girlfriend get-together, is to fill martini glasses with beads and then for entertainment, everyone could make their own suncatchers to take home!




When you go to Lifetime TV's website, you can also see Valentine's Day videos from the other Lifetime Craft Experts; Leah Fung,Vickie Howel, Kathy Cano-Murillo, and Jennifer and Kitty O'Neil.

Happy Valentine's DAY!

See You In The Funny Papers



Blondie and Dagwood can go with me to the grocery store now, with my cute comic strip bag, and newspaper beads, baby! All you need to do is laminate the newspaper, then sew up the sides, and add a closure like I did. The barrel beads are triangles of newspaper rolled onto a skinny straw, glued at the end, and then strung together with beads on an elastic thread. Fast, fun, and cheap!
