OOAK Fairy Doll Wings

So I am in the process of making 3 pair of custom fairy wings and I thought I would share some that I am working on. Making wings is one of my favorite things to do when it comes to the OOAK fairy dolls.

I also love to experience with different ways to make the wings too as well as different mediums. I think the traditional transparent wings, vellum wings, and fantasy film wings are absolutely beautiful but I want more than just those ways. I also like wings that are decorated on both sides and look the same. Sometimes when you are using fantasy film, it is only on one side.

I have tried so many different ways in making wings and my favorite so far is with tissue paper. I also like using bleeding tissue paper because that is what I use to color them at times. The colors blend so well together!

The only thing is I feel my wings are too plain and I have a hard time decorating them and feeling good about it. I know I am hard on myself but I have got to get past this brain fog when it comes time to decorate.

The first pair of wings I made with pearl ex powders and mulberry paper. The other pair I made using mulberry paper too and alcohol inks. This was the first time experimenting with alcohol inks and it was a bit of an experience. Well, I hope you enjoy.

Enjoy and if you have any questions, feel free to let me know. Thank you, Cassie

Free Minecraft Chore Chart & Award System with Printables

Hello, When it comes to chores in our house, it becomes a CHORE to get them to do chores-pun intended! They would rather play Minecraft all day long or just play all day long! Not only do they NOT want to do chores but they also think they should bet a toy everyday and in-between that comes candy every time we walk into the store. I had to figure out a system to get them to do their chores and make it a bit fun too. They need to learn responsibility in this world because you have to work for what you want. Yesterday, my 10 year old says, "mom, can I have this new star wars lego toy? It only costs $99." I said, "uh, no but you can save your chore money and buy it that way." He says to me-just as serious as he could be, "all you got to do is go to the bank and take it out or write a check and get money anytime you want." um.....yeah.....it doesn't work that way. The bank does not just give you money, you have to earn it and then put it in there....

Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare Papercraft

Plants vs Zombies Papercraft (Gargantuar) Hello all! I wanted to share a paper craft that I made with my oldest son for his 11th birthday last weekend. He is so sweet, he said that all he wanted for his birthday was a paper craft of his favorite character from PVZ Garden Warfare, Gargantuar. He and I searched and searched and found a fantastic designer that designs paper crafts of all kinds. Visit his deviantart site HERE . His name is Jeff and his Deviantart name is Jepi12. Not only are his designs the best I have seen but he is absolutely wonderful to work with. He responds to messages quickly and really helped to make my son's birthday the best it could be. You have got to check out his designs. He has a design for everyone! Here is the design of Gargantuar that we did and then I will show you our finished project. My boys and I made the paper craft together. Here is a picture of the Gargantuar. Click on the picture and it will take you to Jeff's site. ...

Minecraft Sword Tutorial Using Wooden Blocks

The boys LOVE Minecraft and have gotten me hooked on it too! Here is a tutorial that my boys and I did together and it was so easy! I got the idea off of youtube from username, "Ihascupquake" She does a bigger version of the sword and I changed a couple of things. I also do mine a little different than she does her sword as far as color, size, etc. I've got many more tutorials of Minecraft goodies. Minecraft bingo, v-day cards, and many more that I want to share with you. This sword is made using 1/2 in wooden blocks that are painted and then glued together. The tutorial on youtube was made using 1 inch blocks I believe. I wanted to make sure they would like it and it didn't take as long as it did when we did the 1 inch blocks. Plus, it was a perfect size that the boys could choose if they wanted it hung on the wall or some other way. I have to say that sometimes our crafts that we make always end up with me making the rest of it while the kiddos go play but t...
