PUSH paper :: book review
PUSH paper is a gallery series book newly released from Lark
Crafts. PUSH profiles 30 different international paper artists that are “push”ing
the boundaries of working with paper. The book contains beautiful photographs,
pared with a documented Q&A discussion with the juror: Jaime Zollars of
Paper Forest.
My
opinion: This is an inspirational book; worthy of mention, even more so of purchasing.
Lark Crafts can be found at: http://www.larkcrafts.com/
PUSH paper is available for purchase through Amazon at the following link.

Sailor's Knot Bracelet
I followed the direction on Etsy to make my own sailor's knot bracelet. [link] This knot can also be referred to as Turk's Head knot. Finishing mine off, I used a super glue to seal the ends and hold them in place. Making mine out of clothes line that I bought at the hardware store, made it dyeable because it was cotton. I soaked it in a bath of water with a few drops of food coloring for about five minutes. Afterwards, I rinsed it well and let it dry.

Rubber Band Bracelets
I found a great tutorial for making rubber band bracelets. The video how-to from Craftastic is below. My daughters and I made them tonight after dinner. This is a very inexpensive craft, I bought paper clips and rubber bands at the dollar store. Our version included alphabet beads, these added to the total cost since they sell for around $7 at Hobby Lobby. This project is great for kids to get involved in and then they can teach their friends!
