Team Creative Crafts Craft-A-Thon

The Team Creative Crafts Craft-A-Thon is a virtual event streaming on Facebook with 5 hours of crafty happiness.  There will be over 10 projects to make using a variety of mediums, supplies, tools and techniques. The Creative Crafts girls (Me, Beth Watson from Creatively Beth and Ann Butler from Bella Crafts Publishing)  are ready to teach you all kinds of new fun ways to get creative.

Who is Team Creative Crafts?

There are two of us who work together to bring this crafty fun to you! — me, Ann and Beth.  We are crafty besties and work together is lots of ways.  Beth blogs over at Creatively Beth.  She is over-the-top creative and my bestest travel buddy. We would LOVE it if you would join all of us on our creative adventures! 

Sponsors

We have the best sponsors. I LOVE all of these products so much and can’t wait to share ways to use them in crafting and DIYs with you during the Team Creative Crafts Craft-A-Thon. Let’s take a quick look at each of these wonderful companies.

DecoArt

I have been working with DecoArt paints and products for pretty much forever. We will be sharing their new paint sets for Michaels to create finishes on different surfaces. Until then, here is a link to one of my favorite DecoArt projects because painting kindness rocks is always a great idea.

How to Paint Rocks Guide

Beth loves DecoArt as much as me. She made something pretty amazing. Can you guess what it is from this photo? Go find out.

Therm-O-Web

There is some super exciting news about Therm-O-Web.  I have a WHOLE NEW CRAFT LINE launching with them and can barely contain my excitement. There will be foils, stamps, papers, cards/envelopes, tags and more. Until then, here is a favorite project using some of their products for to check out.

DIY Mixed Media Bird Decor

Beth made these darling tags at a workshop with Therm-O-Web in Chicago!

Hemptique

The best hemp cord comes from Hemptique. We have the funnest project planned for you during the Team Creative Crafts Craft-A-Thon — string art! Here is a link to a string art project that is super cute already on the blog.

Kunin Felt

If you have been around long (or even for a short time) then you know that I am pretty crazy about felt.  We will be sharing this adorable felt/fabric garland during the Craft-A-Thon.  If you want to buy the felt/fabric/twine ahead of time — you can grab the kit in my online shop.

Beth created this darling banner with Kunin Felt and I want it.

Fairfield World

So many of the wonderful things that I make and share have a product from Fairfield World included. They are the makers of Poly-Fil stuffing, Poly-Pellets, oly*fun and tons of other fillings and battings.  We will be showing you several ways to use their products including filling a bean bag chair and making monsters.  Grab the monster pattern here on the blog.

Beth made a storage stool from a wine crate with Fairfield World foam.  Check it out!

Sculpey 

Polymer Clay is such a fun medium because it allows the makers to create such a huge variety of projects. During the Team Creative Crafts Craft-A-Thon we will be teaching you how to use the Liquid Sculpey.  I. This post has the free printable for making the kindness flowers too. Until then, here is one of my favorite projects. love the Bake Shop clay because it is super easy to work with

Xyron

We can’t wait to show you how to make your own stickers with the Creative Station AND share the new glue guns from Xyron during the Team Creative Crafts Craft-A-Thon. Until then, here is a link to one of my favorite Xyron Creative Station sticker projects.

Beth used Xyron’s Sticker Maker to create something fun.  Look at these awesome supplies. Check out her custom doodle stickers!

Eclectic Products

Everyone LOVES E6000 glue, right?!  We are going to make this super fun bulletin board with E-6000 AND share TONS of their awesome products with you during the Craft-A-Thon. You don’t want to miss this! We will even be giving away a HUGE box of Eclectic goodness so definitely stay tuned. We used the E6000 Fabri-Fuse to attach the felt musical notes to Jordan’s senior overalls and let me tell you – it’s amazing to work with!

Beth used E6000 Fabri-Fuse to upcycle tees with lace.  They are stellar.

ooly

I LOVE LOVE LOVE ooly products.  While they are packaged and seem to be geared for kids, I find them to work great in so many of my favorite projects. The Chunkies Paint Sticks make the best posters with the greatest ease. Check them out here on the blog.

You need to go see what Beth did with these doodles using ooly markers.

Darn Good Yarn

There are so many fabulous fiber arts projects to be made using the wonderful variety of yarns from Darn Good Yarn. We will be using the Wild Peacock Recycled Silk Yarn Worsted Weight to teach you how to make adorable tassels. Until then, check out one of my favorite projects created with Darn Good Yarn here on the blog because pom-poms are for everything.

Team Creative Craft Gift-A-Thon

On Friday night (the eve of the Craft-A-Thon), we will be sharing our first ever Team Creative Crafts Gift-A-Thon featuring our favorite handmade makers that sell their products (and a few of our fave small businesses too).  There is a Facebook event for that too.  It will be tons of fun and filled with inspiration, connection and MORE GIVEAWAYS!!!!

 

We sure hope you will join us!

  1. These days, I pretty much just make cards for every occasion and any reason. I also love mixed media and will make a canvas or home decor piece once in awhile. When the nieces & nephews were young, I made all sorts of things for them and still make them an ornament of some kind every year.

  2. My favorite crafting is crocheting, but I also sew and dabble in all crafts.. always looking for new things to try.
