Week 11 - Collection of christmas crafts

Hello crafters!

So to mark our final week of 2012 (we can't believe how quickly this semester has flown by!), we brought along our supplies to make an assortment of Christmas crafts.

We hope you've enjoyed this semester's crafts, and we look forward to seeing you all in January!

Week 10 - Make your own teabags

Hi guys, hope you're all well!

This is a craft we've all been looking forward to for quite some time - making our own tea bags! It's so simple and yet it makes a great gift idea (perfect with Christmas coming up!) All you need is some loose leaf tea and muslin cloth, we embroided the cloth to make little pockets and filled them with tea - simple!

Week 6 - Spooky Chandeliers

Hi everyone,

We hope you're all well and not too bogged down with essays at the moment! We've been getting thoroughly into the Halloween spirit and today's craft is one we've all been really excited about - spoooky chandeliers! So if you're hosting or attending any halloween parties next week, this will help turn your lovely flat into a horrible haunted house...

You can access the templates that we used to make our chandeliers here

Don't forget there's a slight change next week (Wednesday 31st) seeing as it's Halloween we won't be meeting in the Chaplaincy, we'll at one of our flat's for pumpkin carving and soup making! The address details will be sent out in the weekly email, see you next week!

Week 5 - Felt Coasters

Howdy guys!

This Wednesday, we've been making felt coasters. These are an essential for all tea/coffee/hot chocolate lovers but don't waste your pennies buying boring old coasters, that's what we're here for - Create provides all the materials and information needed for you to make your own unique pieces!

Also just a little heads up, we think these would make an awesome Christmas present if you're wanting to give your nearest and dearest something a little bit more personal this festive season, so why not get practicing now as these will be sure to impress!

Week 4 - Jewellery Holders

Hello again,

This week we were making jewellery holders - this were so easy to make using just cardboard and mesh but don't they look amazing once  assembled altogether and decorated?! They're perfect for displaying your favourite earrings and preventing those annoying tangles!

And if you're in need of some new jewellery to showcase on your holder, we have the just the thing as our Jewellery Evening is coming up on Friday 19th October, 7-10pm in the Loft Bar, Teviot.
