I want to collage my kitchen cabinets. They have molding around the edges, and the insides are plain Jane. They are so painfully boring. Those inserts are just canvases waiting for a little MOJO.
I have Craft Wars set to tape, and I'll be watching at WORK!
Looking forward to seeing the last episode! Thanks for this!
So in love with Craft Wars & have discovered some great new inspiration (from both the winners & "losers.") I'm now starting to work on Halloween decorations & Christmas decorations & gifts. I'm doing some large wreaths as well as "kid friendly" table decor for both.
Working on Korean crafts and loving every minute of it. I've really enjoyed Craft Wars and hate to see it end.
I bought some resin stuff a couple of months ago, but haven't had a chance to try it. You know, the stuff you mix up and embed things in. I keep thinking of all of the interesting bits of broken beads, little pictures, and other odds and ends I could be embedding in this stuff. That's my next project.
I am going to work on some altered jewelry next. I have alot of items from my grandmother that will be repurposed and renewed. I especially am looking forward to some using old watches. This prize package would save me a fortune! I so love Craft Wars and will look forward to checking these vets blogs out! margieippc@gmail.com
Love craft wars!! It should not end. I'm working on altering boxes. So fun!! phenis2031 at yahoo dot com

I am so excited to see this! We just moved, and have not had a TV for three months, so Tuesday will be my first time seeing this show! I was really looking forward to watching this show this summer, oh well, better late than never, right?
This is a great opportunity and I love watching craft wars, and trying to figure out what I would make with the materials each week.
Thank you Cheri

I am working on an altered book. Muahh!
My current "project" is cleaning up my stash. That's crafty, right? ;)
I picked up a Tim Holtz Idea-ology Configurations Print Tray to alter at Michael's a few days ago and I am going to alter it using paper, paints, VerDay, and all sorts of fun bling and stuff. I originally thought to give it a holiday theme since it is going to be a holiday gift but now I am thinking how about 1-18 years for on of my children. Maybe Halloween or Christmas or Back to school pics etc. I don't know...will have to work it out and get it done. Vickie
I love the shows! I'm working on homemade framed art for my great room wall...we just switched from tropical to contemporary, so my plate will be full of doing things for shelves, frames, embossed metal and steampunk stuff.
I need to get started on some Halloween craft projects.

Love Craft Wars..... hate trying to figure out those two words to prove I am not a robot!
Sorry, Vicki. I got all three comments. If I don't leave Captcha on, I spend hours every day dealing with spam email comments.
Stupid spammers!
Good LUCK!
Cheers,

Craft Wars is so AWESOME! I am sad there are only two episodes left! I'm in the midst of a Coaster Holder Make Over using Mod Podge.
Craft Wars rock!! Thanks for the fabulous giveaway.
I have a clipboard and composition book that I want to alter as a set.
Love the show and I'll be watching. Thanks for the giveaway opportunity...great gifts. Currently working on some bottle cap charms.
I so am going to miss Craft Wars...my favorite summer show.

I have so enjoyed Craft Wars and getting to see you participate. I really want to try some resin and/or crystal clay projects in the near future.

So sad it's coming to an end...hopefully they will bring the show back. chpsgrl@gmail.com
My next project is a necklace for the Challenge of Travel blog hop. I am just now waiting for some supplies to get it. I totally lost the first package somewhere in my house.
I hope you got my comment, Margot. I can never tell when they disappear for approval. So, if you got the other one, feel free to delete this one.
Thanks,
Karen

What a generous thing to do. Count me in. I can think of dozens of projects for some swarovski. I think they blend well with my luster finished beads for a really nice bling. Count me in.
I'm currently (and always) working on jewelry:) I'd love to win! ss10001@hotmail.com
Just got back from a tip visiting friends we have not seen in 5 years. Will be making thank you gifts and new supplies would be perfect!
If I didn't have to work (HAH!), I'd craft some over-the-top necklace to be entered into a jewelry contest.
But alas, I need the income...
So, realistically, my next project is to create birthstone bracelets for an upcoming camp.
I'm working on Halloween crafts with my four kids, glitter, Mod Podge and hot glue! Woooo!!!

I'm going to make a Day of the Dead Shrine in the courtyard at the store! I'm going to try and repurpose all kinds of found objects and turn it into something really special! Hopefully I'll find a way to make it interactive and have customers get involved!

Hi Margot! I am a friend of Nikki--met her through Martha Stewart's Dreamers into Doers. I am looking through my huge stash of Halloween mags and figuring out what I am going to make this year!
wbdiem@verizon.net
I have some jewelry ideas I want to work on, but first I need to make a jewelry organizer.
Oh my goodness, what I could do with the crystals alone. I am making jewelry and I keep getting asked to make more felted purses. I can't imagine not making something. Guess it is in the blood- passed down from my dear mother Viola whom I miss dearly.
I'm loving Craft Wars! Sad to see the season ending. Right now I'm getting into the Holiday mode and starting to make Halloween/Thanksgiving/Christmas decorations. I've never been very good at working on one thing at a time. I've got to have 3 or 4...or more projects going all at once ;o)
Oh my goodness. What I could do with the crystals alone. I got my talent to create from my mother who was a wonderful knitter and she sewed all of my cloths when I was a child. My grandmother crocheted. A long line of crafters/artists we are.

I am so psyched for this opportunity to win! I can't wait to get started on some projects. Thanks!
Don't all good crafters have multiple projects they are working on AND have several to-do? Let's hope! Because I have a t-shirt quilt, paper mache creatures, and album I'm working on, and I want to make things with corks, try my hand at a rag quilt, and make Christmas gifts.
I love that there is a craft show on tv! I miss the days of Carol Duval and when Martha had mostly craft. And, of course, love some bling!

Best giveaway I have come across so far..and what a bonus to being a fan of Craft Wars! My next project that I shall be wearing my crafty kitty ears for(yes, I really do have a pair)is painting a pair of comfy canvas shoes to wear when I go to the Rollercoaster Yard Sale(150 miles worth-so I need comfy shoes) next month.
I want to redo my kitchen cabinets with chalk paint and distress them. Also I am going to redo a kid size rooftop desk that was my sons when he was 6 or 7.
