I will no longer be offering the monthly online craft class.
Instead I will be doing an upgraded version of the YouTube Live. This will be a mini class of sorts. Each Monday the new Live will be announced and then on Wednesday evening will be the event. I will then offer to mail the materials so you can create the same projects. The deadline to pay online will be each Sunday and it will mail on Monday. You will be able to get all of the details and pay directly at https://stampingwithjoni.wordpress.com/diykits/. I am building the page right now so not much is on it but it is up to view.
This change will start in January.
For now…next week the 21st will be an unboxing video of the new products. This will be great for you if you miss Saturday’s Christmas party. And on the 28th I will take a break for the holidays.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Happy Crafting!

It’s Friendship Friday! This is the day to focus on giving back or paying it forward.
One of the best things about this time of year is taking time to share your traditions with others. This is what makes living here in this country great. We get to share the different cultures, foods, and traditions. For me the tradition is to not go to a home empty-handed. Usually food is brought such as dried fruits, cheeses, jams, jellies, or something pickled. Some others do cookie exchanges. While others exchange ornaments.
I know this can be a super busy time of year but slow down enough to enjoy what makes each of us unique. And if you’re lucky enough to be close to someone that will share with you then take the time to enjoy.
Happy Crafting!

It’s Wacky Wednesday where a product is used in a way it is not intended! Today I want to talk about hot glue.
So hot glue has so many uses. It can be used to stick things together or to make something on its own. But today I want to talk about how the glue sticks can be used before they are heated.
Imagine that I am crafting (I know, imagine that) and I have lost the back to my earring. I don’t have a pencil with a decent eraser so I can’t use that. But what do I have. I always have tons of hot glue. So I take out a mini stick and an exacto knife. I slice off a thin disc and then pierce a hole in the middle with my Take Your Pick Tool. And without much effort I have a new back to my earring.
Happy Crafting!

It’s Technique Tuesday! I bet you have seen all of the elegant and sophisticated embossed cards for Christmas. But have you seen the messy one?
I’ve included a short video on how to create this card for you.
Go to https://youtu.be/zrxYkCkU3cU to see how this is done.
Happy Crafting!

It’s Sabbath Sunday! This is the day to rest so you can recharge for the rest of the week.
Sometimes I recharge by sitting at home all by myself and other times I do a craft fair and get to talk to a bunch of people. It just really depends on who I have been around (if they have been uplifting, positive or negative, energy draining). I often find that by being around the right people their energy will rub off on me.
So how does this relate to recover? Let me explain by a definition.
Recover (according to the dictionary app) is to return to a normal state of health, mind, or strength. And one person’s normal is not another’s.
So however you recover or recharge…do that. The world needs more enthusiastic, kind people.
Happy Crafting!

P.S. It’s not an easy button but it is achievable.
