Creative Play Theme for October

The Creative Play theme for October is Studio Monsters!
 If your tools, your supplies, your own artwork turned against you...What would that monster look like?  Come up with a studio monster of your own and tell us all about it at the Coo2Craft Creative Play blog on the Hive. 
Remember you can use any medium!  Draw it, paint it, video it, sculpt it, write a Haiku about it, make a costume, write a song about it, or come up with a different way to represent your studio monster!
Have fun!

My Pajama Crown

This crown theme is just too exciting! I decided I needed a special crown for Wednesday nights's Cool2Craft Pajama Party! It took me all of forty-five minutes to make. I started with a glittery foam crown from a craft store, made some quick polymer clay coffee cups and doughnuts. After curing them in the oven for twenty minutes (included in the the total time) and glued them on! Then I stuck on some jewels and it was perfect!


Be sure to tune in to Cool2Craft Live Monday at noon EST for a crown cupcake sleeve demo!

Cakeronauts from Cakeron 7 Have Landed

These Cakeronauts came all the way from Cakeron 7!  The team of Admiral Skrimpmonius Hershdessert and Dr. Osmo Poptartiarity entered a planet wide contest on their home world to make the best cupcakes.  The prize was exclusive rights to come to planet Earth and spread their cupcakes.
 
 Dr. Poptartiarity, a Doctor of Cupcakeology, had this to say
 "We come to you with our delicious cupcakes!  We are in no way attempting to take over your world with our delicious cupcakes!  Have some!  You really must!  Moohooaahahhaaaaahh!"
