 napkinsTransfer paper and tracing paper are exciting staples for crafters. The more creative you are the less guidance you will need and you can modify these recipes any way you see fit. For any super crafters that modify the recipe we would love to hear the variations you discover.

You Will Need:

  • Cotton Napkins or Kitchen Towels (prewashed)
  • Your favorite clip art from http://www.graphicsfactory.com/
  • Transfer paper for color printers
  • Puffy Fabric Paint
  • Iron

Directions:

Print out the clip art on to the transfer paper and let in dry. You need to decide the layout of the clip art. It is best to have the transfers near one of the edges of the napkins. Simply iron on the transfers to the cloth napkin and allow cooling. Next use complimentary colors of puffy paint to embellish your favorite features.

Once Halloween is over it will be on to Turkey and Santa. Clip Art is so adaptable it is truly a staple among crafters and especially if you have children in the house.
It is always nice to personalize gifts. It is easy to buy gifts that last a minute but some of the most treasured gifts are all homemade works of art.

To help my son get over a recent loss of our family dog we created a memory quilt. It was full of pictures of my son and the dog and various clip art cartoons that would replace the memories of the loss with happy memories.

All you need to make a quilt, blanket, set of napkins, or towels is a color printer, transfer paper, clip art, an iron and the fabric of your choice.
