Fun with Shrink Art

One evening, I was home with just the girls. I decided we should do a craft project to fill our time without daddy. I printed out a flower pattern from the computer onto Shrink Art. We first colored in the design on the same side the design was printed on; unfortunately, those results were not terrific. The next try, we printed the same design and then colored on the reverse side.

Using a hole punch before shrinking, created the small hole for hanging upon finishing.

The colors used were permanent markers.

If you would like to try this on your own, you can download the design I used for free at this link.

Free Patterns for Dog Coats and Boots

If you have a little dog, you know they are small, lack adequate thickness of fur for winter and get cold easily. Small dogs appreciate wearing a coat or sweater in cold weather. Even if your dog normally doesn't like anything on or around him, given the weather, you might find it a different situation. You can buy a sweater or a coat but the sizes don't vary much and usually don't fit well. Making your own, weather it is sewn, knitted or crocheted, you can alter the size to fit perfectly. Here are a few websites that offer free patterns for dog clothing. more...
