Hello
We meet again for another addition of Crafty Wednesday.
Today's Topic: Craftzine.com
Craftzine was a quarterly magazine that was around for about 2 years. The they decided they would have a larger outreach if they became solely an online magazine. You can buy old copies of Craftzine from their website, which I highly recommend. Cratfzine is made for crafters (ok duh!) but it not only gives great projects and ideas but showcases artists in the field. Everything from a woman who knitted a house equiped with gfood, table, dishes and artwork to feature Project Runway designers who put LED lights into clothing. Some of my favorite projects were making a wallet out of underwear, ironging plastic bags together to create a recycled reusable plastuc bag (who doesn't love the Target bullseye), crocheting a fancy granny square bag, and one of my next projects a hawaiian blank.
Right now you can get the same great expereince from the Craftzine website that includes interviews, tutorials and a network to be among crafty people. Sign up for their news letters and become a fan on face book. The exciting thing about crafting is there is always something new to discover and these people are at the forefront.
Tune in next wednesday to see what we're crafting.
Have FUN! :)

Crafty Wednesday!!!
Come join me every wednesday for a weekly craft tip. Also share your ideas too. LeslieGallery would love to hear from you.
TODAYS TIP!!
During the holidays you are receiving cards left and right. What do you do with them afterwards? Here's an idea......Make them into tags for presents.
1. Bring out your markers, stamps, glitter glue or ribbon
2. Cut out an image you like
3. Decorate it
4. Write on the front or back (which ever works best) to whom you're giving it to and who it's from
5. Secure to the present with a ribbon or tape
* If there is writing on the back already, just glue a piece of paper; white, contruction or tissue, over it to cover the writing.
TA DA instant tag and you look so smart for reducing, reusing and recycling.
