Sunday School Craft - Jesus Healed 10 Lepers

Okay, I totally ripped this one off from Pinterest.

You just need paper (I used cardstock), and crayons.

On Pinterest, they had hand-drawn/written the entire thing. All I did was type the wording into a Publisher document and then trace my hands around the words. You are welcome to print these out if you need them! I did "Jesus Healed 10 Men..." on one side, and then "...but only 1 said 'Thank You!'" on the back.

Just so's you know....All the parents LOVED this one, and I was like...uhhh...What about those other crafts that I really worked at??? 

Haha! Anyways, it's a cute idea! :) And it wasn't mine!

Refashioning: NO SEW! Making Clothing More Functional - Dress into Skirt

Here is a "no sew" version of my last blog post about turning hard-to-wear clothing into more functional pieces. 

(Before I begin, I need to mention that you can do the same method as the aforementioned post if you peel off one side of iron-on adhesive tape and--after cutting the bodice off--iron the tape onto the inside of the top of your waist hem. Then, remove rest of the backing off the tape, fold the hem down once, and then iron the fold. The only problem will be around the zipper if your dress has one, you may have to take the old sewing needle and thread to that part to tack it down.)

Here is a second method and it requires no tool skills except cutting with scissors! The only thing is that it can only be done on dresses with elastic waist bands and no zippers.

For this type of dress, the waist band is not only already cinched in with elastic, but also, the band has been finished on both sides, so all we need to do to turn it into a skirt is to cut the bodice away from the skirt. Cut as closely to the waist band as you can with out cutting into the waist band.

 

Hopefully this picture is clearer.

A close up of the waist band. You can barely tell that anything was cut because the waist band is already finished!

Finished skirt! It took less than five minutes!

The End!
