These glow in the dark melted bead suncatchers are so much fun! This craft is so easy to make and the results are pretty cool. They look great hanging in the window, and they look even more awesome in the dark when they glow! Just make sure you bake these outside - Whether it's on your barbecue, or whether you take your toaster oven outside. Don't bake them in the house. The plastic vapours that come out when the beads melt are really strong. And I'm not an expert, but I'm guessing the … [Read more...]
Beaded Pipe Cleaner People
There's less than a week to go until my book launches! (June 26th is the day!) I wanted to give you a sneak peak of one of the projects from the book.

These beaded pipe cleaner people are SO CUTE and they're really simple to make! With pipe … [Read more...]
Beaded Pipe Cleaner Snowflakes
And we're back. Don't you hate it when you make an announcement to the world, and then you can't follow through because life gets in the way? Yup. It's been one of those weeks! My publisher sent me the printed pages of my craft book to edit, mark up and send back... so I had to read through 192 pages of crafts and instructions to find any mistakes. But I am ridiculously relieved to say that that was the FINAL edit and I won't see those pages again until it goes to print this summer. Crazy and so … [Read more...]
How To Make Pom Pom Bunnies
Hey everyone! It's Megan from Homemade Ginger and I'm back to share another craft that's perfect for spring. These little bunnies are super soft and so fun to make! I discovered pom pom making this year when I was in the process of wrapping Christmas gifts. I was addicted to making them in all sizes and colors of yarn to top my gifts. When I saw these pom pom bunnies on Pinterest, I was ecstatic to realize that my pom pom making did not have to stop with the holidays! For some reason, … [Read more...]
Melted Bead Candy Canes | Candy Cane Bead Ornaments
Have you started listening to Christmas music yet?? I loooooove Christmas music. As soon as it starts to get cold outside I pop my favourite mixed Christmas CD into the car stereo and play it non-stop until New Years. Even if it starts to snow in October, I'm excited for the excuse to play my favourite Christmas songs!! Picture the tiniest flurry and my husband saying, "Debbie, it's way too early for Christmas music!" and me replying, "What are you talking about!? It's … [Read more...]
Melted Bead Ornaments
These melted bead ornaments are SO MUCH FUN. I could get addicted to making these! Using simple pony beads, you can make cookie cutter shapes, beautiful free handed patterns, sun catchers, or anything you like! They almost look like little stained glass works of art. Simply beautiful! It was also one of those crafts where I got to feel a little like a crazy person. Melting plastic is kind of smelly. And I'm not an expert, but I think those plastic gases that come out when the beads melt are … [Read more...]
