Purim Tags II

The concept is the same as in my last post, but I made these at home, with some of my massive stash of supplies.
These are real, edible hamantashen https://www.chabad.org/recipes/recipe_cdo/aid/2742168/jewish/11-Exciting-Hamantaschen-Recipes-for-Purim.htm

Purim Tags

I have a weekly Torah class with some ladies and this week we prepared for Purim. We made hamantash tags. We stamped the egdes of the circles, folded them into hamantash triangles & lined the inside with doilies. The ladies took home flower stickers so that after they put a tiny treat inside they can seal the hamantashen. We all had fun!

Somehow, I found/ had to find/ was blessed with the time to make these, in between prepping for and celebrating Rosh Hashana, Yom Kipur, Sukkot and the regular weekly Shabbat!

In Circles

Gold Frames II was my first attempt at highlighting elements on the edge of a design with metallic embossing. Today I tried it again with a bit more success, I think.

4. In my craft stash I have a number of mystery items. The mystery isn't about what they are (no identity crises here!), but about what they are for. A lot of times I'll see something and I'll think it's very pretty or very intriguing and I'll add it to my collection. And then it just sits there. I know these things have great potential but I can't figure out how to tap into it. They style or color scheme is too different from my usual, or I just don't have enough imagination to get it right. These items are waiting patiently for you to come along and redeem them. And I'm waiting for you to use what I can't use, and to show me a new and unique way of getting crafty. Please come soon!

3. I need to create. If a week goes by where I haven't made, drawn or written anything, my fingers start to itch and I feel my whole world begin to tilt at a queasy angle. Thank G-d, I have many ways and lots and lots of craft supplies to express myself, hopefully before things start going funny. I know I'm not the only one to have this creative urge, and I wonder how other people live with it. Do you satisfy the urge? With what supplies? Where? How often? Is it enough? For those who don't or can't satisfy the urge, how do you manage? How do you stifle the urge? And how do you remain relatively sane with this quashed but unsatitsfied urge? I'm sure there are other who don't have this creative urge, yet every once in a while they want to have some crafty fun or they need to make something for an occasion, but they're not sure who has supplies they can use and the patience to show them how to use it. I am offering Creative Chabad Crafts Open Studio as a place where older girls and women can get creative. Here you can find the space, supplies and guidance you want to freely and fully express yourself. I look forward to welcoming you to CCC Open Studio!

2. Thank G-d I'm blessed with an incredible mashpia, and among the other ways she's there for me she's figured out (more or less) how to follow my quirky thought process. She still knows, however, that that's a challenging and rare skill for most people to develop! Often, I'll share with her my latest scheme to create and sell a craft idea, and she'll remind me that most people don't understand what I'm talking about. Instead, she'll tell me I need to bring people into my craft space, show them what I have, let them show me what they know and then I can promote my grand ideas. So, once again, I'm trying to carry out my mashpia's instructions, not only because she's my trustworthy mashpia but also because I, too, think this is a good idea! Come on over so we can  share our crafty wisdom with each other!
