Recycle old bits of crayon

I used Reynolds fun shapes muffin/cupcake liners in my muffin pan. Then I melted old bits of crayons from my kids pencil boxes at 250 degrees for 15 minutes. I then swirled gently with a toothpick ( it will look pinkish depending on what colors you add) and let cool. After they were cool, I popped them out and they are ready to go! They are awesome especially for preschoolers to work on their grip!

Quilled Ballerina

Quilled Ballet, Dancer I wanted to try something challenging and I saw a picture of a ballerina that I thought might be the one. Well, here it is....I used a combination of beehive and regular quilling. This is in honor of my daughter turning 13 today! Happy Birthday!!! Quilled Ballerina Quilled Ballerina

Quilled Pointe Shoe

My daughter took Pointe this year at dance and being the end of the year, I wanted to make a special thank you card for the staff. I drew the outline for the shoe and then filled the spaces with 1/8 width quilling paper.

Day 30 – #amonthinpaper. Looking back at my early pieces, my lines were a little wonky, I used straight pins for everything (man it stretched the process out forever…), and my photo skills were severely lacking. I had a major learning curve and from practicing and experimenting, I’ve found better ways to do everything. I learned a lot from trial and error. I guess you can say I’ve come a long way babe….💗 #practicemakesperfect #artprocess #learningcurve #amonthinpaperday30 #paperartistcollective #workinprogress #motivation #quilling #paperart #jenniferstacey #quillingfun #madefrompaper #paperartist #wip #alwayslearning #paperquilling #paperartist #artwork #artlife #dailyart #dailygrind #lettering #typographyart #paperlettering
