Clay Bug - Kids Craft

Hi

Welcome you back to Theepz crafts.

I saw a clay bug done in Ceebeebies through internet and I made a one.

 It just took 3 minutes for me to make this.

Materials Needed:

Clay
3 ear buds
Color to paint

Step 1: Shape yo clay based on the bug shape.

Step 2: Cut the ear bud leaving an inch starting from bud.
            You get 6 pieces for legs

Step 3: Plug the legs onto the clay
            2 towards front and 2 towards back and 2 towards sides

Step 4: Color it accordingly. I used acrylic pearl for a shine!

Isn't it small and cute!

Ribbon Man

Hi,

Welcome to Theepz crafts.

Today I am posting my click of a ribbon man.

I started cytting ribbon into long pieces. took three long and started plaiting like our hairstyle.
The longer plaited one I used for the body and the medium for legs and the small one for hands.

He looks just like the above.

He can be bent to any shape and I made his sit with no support external.

As I wanted to Post my work in http://blog.ribboncarousel.com/ I sticked him on a card and made it as a holiday card.

Yes my ribbon man is now running for a holiday:)

Isnt he cute?

Happy Crafting ahead!

Free butterflies

Hi,

Welcome to Theepz crafts.

Have u ever caged butterflies?
If yes they loose all their freedom and colors , look pale.
Here I have freed those caged butterflies!

Materials uded:
Paper
Magazine
Glue
Scissors
Coloring Pen
A hand made card of black color

Step1:
Cut out the plain sheet of paper into different shapes of butterflies and color them.

Step 2:
Roll the magazine pages to make a frame and stick them at the corners of the black hard/hand made sheet.
This is to give a look of a frame.

Step3:
Paste few butterflies inside the frame.
Apply glue over all beneath the butterflies.

Step 4:
Hang the frame on a bigger sheet of paper or direct on the wall.

Step 5:
Apply glue on the wall on required area.
Do not apply glue on all over beneath the butterflies; just apply at a mid point.
Curve the corners of the butterflies so that they seems like flying.

Now the freed butterflies seems happier than the caged ones.

Match box character

Hi,

Welcome to theepz crafts.

I was going through the pics in pin-interest and got inspired by a match box character.

Got inspired by the red matchbox lady in http://pinterest.com/pin/114067803034315831 and made the below orange one.

So many similar characters are yet to come.

But I am scared that my mom will scold me if I throw the match sticks from the match boxes. And so waiting for the empty boxes to come:)

Decorative Candle making

Hi,


Welcome to Theepz crafts.

Here is the colorful candle I made.
I took a glass tumbler and dropped one seashell into it.

I have melted the button wax and added yellow color and poured it as base.

Then a layer of green and a layer of blue over it.

I dropped a pebble inside and I used a thick thread and dropped it in and held another end up.

Finally I finished off with the orange color layer.

Finally I dropped another carved shell inside it before the candle turns hard.

This is to add a good look for the candle.

Now the hand made glass cum decorative candle is ready.
