Creative Living
When we talk about rubber stamping, we’re usually referring to craft making. But Julia Usher, chef and cookbook author, will show how to actually rubber-stamp already top-coated cookie. She’ll explain the type of ink pad to use and other tools for the project — and they are completely edible.
She’s from St. Louis, Missouri.
Designer and crafter Ann Butler will show us how to use a wooden wreath, various paints and no bake polymer clay to create a variety of fall home décor items. She uses a push mold to create the leaves and then adds metallic shimmers for that extra special touch. Butler owns a company in Villard, Minnesota.
Information on making a bed canopy, retirement and second careers, and recipes for good food gifts any time of the year will be the featured topics on “Creative Living” at noon on Tuesday and at 2 p.m. on Saturday. (All times are Mountain)
Andrea Schewe is a pattern designer for a pattern company in New York City. She’s going to show us how to make a canopy for a bed using a large wooden embroidery hoop. This is an easy project to make and is very attractive since it can be draped in many different ways.
