  • This is a long video and I apologize but I didn't want to break it up into two parts. I just got a terrific comment: The Christmas tree cookie cutters would be a great shape to make these suncatchers in for a tree or for gifts. I love that idea! Y'all are so clever. This craft may not be for everyone. If you have reservations with any part of it, then just don't do it.

    Hi there Mary that was so interesting to watch today. What a nice idea. I love the ones that are multicolored so much life to them. Like you said you don't need a lot of equipment either. I'm going to check our Walmart and see what they have in their craft dept. They don't seem to have much in our Walmart as far as crafts go but I'll check. We have a lot of grey days here in New England in the Winter and those would be perfect. Thank you for showing all of us your hobby. If they are not heavy I imagine little suction cups could hold them well I would think. Nice video!

    • @MySimpleCottageLife
      @MySimpleCottageLife  4 года назад +1

I love how these turned out and I am sure they are beautiful when the sun is shinning through them! Will try it over the Thanksgiving holidays as we are still staying away from any crowds! Stay Safe, hugs and God Bless! Stanley and Donna in NE GA mountains.

    • @MySimpleCottageLife

    As you were scrolling through your kitchen I saw a toaster over on your counter and as I saw it I wondered hummmm, I wonder if you could use it for the same purpose. Ofcourse if you were making several at a time, the big oven would be more practical. They are so darling tho! I can't wait to see when the sun comes out how they look❤ your kitchen is sooo cozy, I absolutely love it and could see sitting at your table having a cup of tea or coffee or sweet iced tea in the hot summer. How fun.

      remember, you can use all sorts of shapes. The cookie cutters usually come in dozens of different shapes. Just make sure they are metal. You can even string several together to make wind chimes. They are perfectly fine left outdoors.
