what if you were to use medical gauze like they use for wrapping injuries? It comes in rolls and may not be cost effective but it woud probably be more similar to the ridged wrap to start . If you used it as a first layer then the strips of fabric it might work out .
@@sammy4395 I'll have to research that. Two people on the rigid wrap video said they used rigid wrap in the hospital to make casts. Maybe they meant they used something similar to rigid wrap? My channel is mostly about inexpensive ways to craft, so I'm always looking for the cheapest way to go, if possible. I'll go look for that and compare prices. Thanks for the tip!
@@lisawiles-upman4049 yes! I will post it in the community comments, but I don't think many people look at those so I will show it in the next video that I'm working on right now.
@@vanessahuman7607 really? I thought about how that could work when I was wrapping my Flamingo. It's really quick and easy to work with, so that makes sense.
This is what plaster casts are made of. Used it decades ago to make puppets by covering a blown up balloon with the strips. It was available in about 2 to 3 inch wide strips in rolls. Love the stuff!!
@@cathykrueger4899 I had never heard of it but stumbled across it at the goodwill. Being the thrifty crafter that I am I had to get it. It was definately easy to use and I hope it helps someone else that has never heard of it.
@@volcessa Thank you! I am going to wait a full week on the poll to see how it shakes out. If at least half of the viewers want Christmas videos now I'll start posting them. If not, they will get posted at the end of October. That still gives time for making.
Oh my Gosh ! ! Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful idea. Such a beautiful gift and the poem is such a blessing to go along with it Thank you 🙂
@@user-ge9pq3bo2nYou know what? My ex mother in law gave me that poem and a bonnet at my baby shower for my second child, my son, and it was one of my favorite gifts of all time.
@jeffreysworld719 Thank you I really enjoy your videos you have so many great ideas you definitely are a true crafter Hope you have a wonderful, blessed evening
@@user-ge9pq3bo2n lol, I'm an addict. I'm always thinking about crafting. It's my greatest joy in life. I'm lucky to have such sweet people on board. I hope your evening is crafty 😊
It's never too early for Christmas Crafts! True crafters need time to gather supplies and do the work. I make Christmas crafts all year long and gladly welcome new ideas!
@@carmelabologna9051 This is exactly how I feel! I'm obsessed with Christmas crafts lately 😊However, I'm trying to post videos when people want them. If you post them off-season, before people are interested they don't get many views and ultimately are a waste of good crafting time lol.
@@chelev.6085 Thank you for the compliment and the concern. I'm watching Port A and it doesn't look good so far, but I no longer live there. I do still love that place and would hate to see it happen to them again.
@@jeffreysworld719 Oh that’s good that you’re not living there anymore. I have a friend who lives in Rockport and she has moved her RV to higher ground to Alice. I’m in Sugar Land and the hurricane is heading straight over us. Praying it moves fast and doesn’t cause too much wind damage or flooding. 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Praying for all areas in it’s path.
If you don't already have chicken wire look in the description for a link to some $5 rolls that are 10 ft long 24 inch wide. I think 2 rolls would make a person.
Thank u so much for creating a snowy owl that had suggested. Very much appreciated!🥰 hopefully I can create it too now. As for getting the black or brown tip coloring just use a little acrylic paint on a paint brush or u can use eye shadow or other powder & just rub the snowy owl in it lightly to get a little color.
Hi! They're so cute and I did exactly what you said, though I had to add a tiny bit more to the legs. Mine measures 1 1/2 inch from top of ear to the bottom of the foot. I was wondering how long yours are because they looked bigger from the video. Are all pipe cleaners the same length now, I'm wondering? 😊
Mine are usually about 1.5-2" long. I have made some larger by cutting the pieces longer. My pipe cleaners are 12" long. I just happened to have them sitting here because I have a request to make a snowy owl.
@@jeffreysworld719 okay so they're about the same then. Thank you for responding so quickly! Yes I would add more pipe cleaners to make them a little bigger if I want to, as well. I wonder too, if you have any miniature cat videos, by chance? I'm not crazy about the ones I've seen.
The internet is really slow for some reason so it keeps logging off. But I'm still trying to get it uploaded. It's a really cheap project. Do y'all have goodwill stores?
That’s a great idea. The beach theme and the sand castles and beach themed sand molds formed from concrete(inexpensive medium). Nice. I’ll be trying this out for my kids to paint instead of sanding; then gifting to both grandmas, a few friends, neighbors. Lovely video and thank you for sharing. I’m too nervous to post a video of myself so kudos to you for putting yourself out there and teaching us something creative and fun. 💕
Thank you, I love it when people try my craft ideas. You should post a video or two and soon you lose the nerves. My first videos I didn't show my face, just my hands and talking. But it's gotten easier, now I don't worry about it.
