Poinsetta YoYo Wreath

Look at my new pattern i have for sale my friend is brillant she has written all the directions on making this wonderful new way of using yoyo makers. Hard to fine patterns for the yoyo makers.

She has use photos to direct you in making each petal.

I think its darling and easy to make and not expensive and you don't have to have yoyo tool makers.

Makes great gifts for friends , nursing homes, Activity directors would love to make this for their homes as well as for their patients. i think a green bow would be cool. What do you think?? This is the wreath created for christmas using the circle plastic . Have a great day hugs kat

Spider Yo-Yo

Happy Halloween.

It has been along time, since I blogged at YoYo Along. Kat asked me to share my spider yo-yo. First, I used three Clover Yo-Yo makers. The small size is for the head, the large size is placed on the under side of the main body, the main body is made out of an extra large yo-yo. Puff and stuff is what I used for the head and main body, but I did not stuff the one I placed on the underside. Therefore, I used and made a total of three yo-yos. Cut four pipe cleaners into two parts each. If you want to make a bug, then only cut three pipe cleaners. Remember spiders have eight legs. Once, I stuffed the the extra large yo-yo with puff and stuff and secured the yo-yo, I stuffed the pipe cleaners into the middle part of the yo-yo opening. That left me with a challenge, so I decide to add the third yo-yo to the underside of the spider. I used Fabri-Tac to glue everything together. The yo-yo placed on the underside is glued down with the gathered side and hole showing because it looks prettier this way. Bend the pipecleaners so they look like creepy spider legs. I glued the head to the main body and added pearl puff paint for eyes on the head. Of course, these are now napkin ring holders, but the spider could be adapted and turned into a pin cushion. Have fun. Make a bunch. Scare your friends. Best regards. http://http//www.flickr.com/photos/aaaandreaaaa/4043542787/

Happy Easter

This is a picture of my yo-yo chick. I am including the funny story that goes with this yo-yo project. Today an idea about an Easter chick popped into my head, and I couldn't stop thinking about this project. Therefore, I decided to make one while at work teaching my class. Remember, I am an excellent multi-tasker. When I finished, I went to show our secretary that answers the phones in the main office; she loved it. She loved it so much, she thought I was giving it to her. She smiled really big and giggled too. I ended up totally making her day. Standing there in a bit of shock, I remembered I had given her a snowmen, yo-yo, ornament for Christmas. Thinking, giggling and smiling, I didn't say anything to her, and I let her keep it. I didn't have the heart to tell her; I really wanted it for myself. An awkward moment was evaded because I didn't want to explain away any hurt feelings by telling her no. Rushing back to my room during my break time, I quickly made another one. Five minutes later my second chick was completed.

No Easter is complete unless you have bunny napkin rings. Hope you are as blessed as I am?

Best Wishes. http://www.flickr.com/photos/25159120@N04/show/
