CRAFT
This week’s craft ideas come
from a group of mothers who
belong to Salem Belleman’s Union
Church in Mohrsville. This group
of women get together every year
to make crafts for the church’s
Christmas bazaar.
The group makes many of their
craft items out of "junk” to create
inexpensive, but ingenious crafts.
Below are a few of the crafts they
are making for this year’s bazaar,
scheduled for Nov. 9 and 10. To

sharp object with a point. "A
sewing awl is tjie ideal thing to
use,” Cathy said.), scissors.
Directions: Take shoe polish (a
brown will make the hoop look like
wood) and polish the cardboard
hoop. Let dry. Cut the copper with
your scissors to the desired shape
and size. (The women use a three
inch circle, but this depends on the
size of your hoop.) Trace the
pattern onto paper and tape the
paper onto the copper. Use a nail
or sewing awl to punch through the
pattern into the copper. Remove
pattern and cut copper to fit out
side of hoop. Glue together with
craft glue. Trim with lace and
ribbon on the outside edges. When
finished, wipe off all the finger
prints from copper and spray
entire ornament with polyurethane
vanish spray to prevent any tar
nishing.
These cost about $1.50 to make
and can be made in approximately
two hours.

Directions: Glue string onto the
nutshell. Glue the lace around the
top of the nutshell. “It works good
with a hot glue gun,” the women
advised. Line the inside of the shell
with felt. Make two little mouse
ears out of the grey felt, and glue
onto the shell. Glue the Vi-inch
grey pompom into the shell for the
mouse’s head. Glue two tiny beads
for eyes and the smallest bead for
the nose. Elaine used a tweezers
and dipped these small items into
the glue to paste them onto the
pompom. After this is done, cut a
small blanket to fit over the bottom
of the shell out of fabric ribbon.
Supplies needed: 16 pretzels,
glue, ribbon and decorative
flowers.
Directions: (hot glue gun works
best) Glue the 16 pretzels together
into double layers so that you have
eight sets of double pretzels. Then
glue them together, side by side
into a circle. Wind ribbon around
them, making sure that you cover
the glued sections. Trim with
decorative flowers, bells, or bows,
depending on the season.
