Today, we are going to learn how to make a PomPom maker 😀 I found this great tutorial and am happy to share it here 🙂
We’ll be making PomPom maker from recycle items (used CD and popsicle sticks) and I love it to the max! Gone are the days of buying PomPom makers 🙂
UFO – Unidentified Flying Object. Let’s make one today 😀
Paper plate UFO
You’ll need to paint two pieces of paper plates.
Decorate the paper plate with glitter paper.
Cut an alien out of green paper and paste.
Glue an empty plastic container over the alien.
Glue the two pieces of paper plates together.
We had a ‘Project UFO’ in the studio last Saturday.
And the kids loved it. These are some of their UFOs 😀
Boys will definitely love this craft 🙂
Remember the video I shared on how to cut letters out of paper here ? Well, we are going to make use of our new found skill and make learning the alphabets so much FUN!
From today onwards we are going to make random alphabet craft projects. We are going to start with the letter D. We are going to make a Dino teaching aid 😀
D for Dinosaur 🙂
Cut out a D and outline it on a brown foam or any color of your choice.
That letter D will be the prominent feature in this craft
Using other colors except brown, cut out body parts from craft foams.
I refrain from using brown again as we need the letter D to stand out.
Glue onto the letter D
Cut out shapes for decorative purposes and glue onto the dinosaur
The Dinosaur is done 😀
I found this on YouTube the other day and thought that it is extremely awesome!
Coming up soon is what we did with those letter cut outs. Stay tune 🙂
I love abstract art. Today we are going to use marbles to paint an abstract art 🙂
I’m going to let the video do the tutorial today 😀
Abstract Art – Simple and nice. The kids will definitely LOVE this! The process of making it especially 😀
Muffins are delicious. Today we are going to use muffin cups to make beautiful flowers 😀
Muffin cup flowers
We’ll need muffin cups
Paste them onto a piece of paper
Press to keep them in place
Use a coin as a guide and draw a circle on a color craft foam.
Paste the craft foam in the middle of the muffin cups
Like this 🙂
Cut strips out of brown craft foam and paste
Bend a green pipe cleaner and paste as the leaf
Repeat
You’re done 😀
The satisfaction I got from that smile of his – PRICELESS 😀

We are going to make a lantern out of that art piece today.
Craft Stick Lantern
Paste 4 craft sticks to form a square on the art piece
Paste more sticks until you get 4 squares
Cut and paste the end together. Cover the bottom and stick a tea light in the middle.
I made another using Panda as the motive and I find it really cool 😀
Using crayons, I drew a couple of pandas on a tracing paper
Like this 🙂
Cover it with another tracing paper
Iron. Again, please be careful while handling hot iron. Make sure the little ones are no where nearby.
Cut and glue together
Nice 🙂
We have a new addition in our Studio. It is the kids’ current favourite spot 🙂
A place where they can express themselves with graffiti-like art 🙂
Check out our fee structure here.
Corrugated fiberboard is a paper-based material consisting of a fluted corrugated sheet and one or two flat linerboards.
Corrugated fiberboard paper comes in two forms, lined and unlined. For art and craft purposes, lined corrugated paper is usually used. Lined corrugated paper is rigid layered paper that encloses a fluted layer between one or two smooth “liner” layers. The fluted layer provides added strength. Paper we know as cardboard is actually lined corrugated paper. Unlined corrugated paper consists of the fluted layer only and is flexible.
Corrugated paper products are lightweight, versatile and durable.
We are in The Star today 7/9/2010 pg IT7 😀

hobbies and build successful businesses on the Web 🙂
We are making an abstract art today, with crayons 🙂
Abstract Art
We’ll need some crayon shavings
Spread them onto a piece of construction paper
Cover with another piece of paper
Use a slightly heated up iron to heat up the crayon shavings.
Please be careful while handling hot iron. Make sure the little ones are no where nearby.
Get the little ones to peel the papers.
The abstract art is done.
Coming up next is what we did with the abstract art. Stay tune 😀
Incy Wincy spider climbed up the spout
Down came the rain and washed the spider out
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain
So Incy Wincy spider went up the spout again!
Egg carton spider
Paint the egg carton black
Paste a couple of eyes
Use a black pipe cleaner for the legs
Put a thread through it and you’ll have dangling spiders! 😀
Cool! 🙂
31 August 2010 was Independence Day for our country Malaysia 😀 And on this special day also Ethan and I were featured in the papers (The Star).
It has nothing to do with Independence Day though 🙂 It is all about our Studio.
Parents often asked me what paint I used for our finger, hand and footprint projects. Well folks… we use Chroma Kidz Colours – Fingerpaints for kids 🙂
