Face Fans for Jonathan!

This weekend, I was invited to a party for a sweet sweet friend, who will be admitted to the hospital this week.  I made for him what I call "FaceFans"  Since we are all fans of him, I thought it would be fun to make something more memorable for the party. 

I took a great  photo from his Facebook page, and cropped out just his smiling face.  Then I uploaded the picture to my computer, emailed it to my local office supply store, such as Office Depot.  I then popped in picked up my photos printed on 8 x 11 inch paper. 

Then I stopped into my local Home Depot and picked up free paint sticks.  I went home and glued the pictures to unused hanging file folders, and taped in the sticks for handles.  I cut it all down with my knife, and Viola!  Face Fans....Here is the photo of the party with the fans honoring our dear friend...

October 25th 2011

Good afternoon fellow crafters!  I love to create and I love to write.  So I decided it was time to start a blog about my favorite things, which involve making crafts. 

I hope other crafters will be as thrilled as I am about it, and will write to me and post their ideas too.
