IV.  Craft Tips

I make customized candles by melting gel candles in a pot of boiling 
water, and inserting seashells, decorative stones and just about anything 
non flammable. Then just remove from pot and allow to harden.
Diane Kruchensy, West Newton, PA 

Another use for those old phone books. Use as a cutting mat when using an 
exacto knife. After you are done cutting one item, just tear off the few 
pages that have been cut through and you have a clean cutting & mat; for 
the next project. 
Diana Lin. Oxford, Oxford, Ct 

When painting with acrylics or oil paints at home, instead of buying a 
palette to mix my paints on, I use an inexpensive foam plate. The paints 
also wash off easily and the plate can be used again and again. 
Rhonda Hunt; Poplarville, MS 

Over the years I've accumulated a modest collection of embroidery floss 
from various projects.  A while back I devised an excellent, inexpensive 
way to file the thread by color number and at the same time keep the 
colors visible.  I bought some 6-3/4 window envelopes. Then I found a 
shoe box that they would fit in. I put one color of thread in an envelope 
and it is visible through the envelope's window.  I then write the color 
number where the stamp would go and I file them in numerical order.  I 
can flip through the box and find a color without having to know the 
number, too. 
Patti Fix, Sterling, Colorado
