Take a look below at organizing tips and methods from For the Makers founders Katie and Janet. ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am thrilled to share a project in our May issue from a craft book that I've been working on with my friend Amy Gropp Forbes called Super Make It.  In it we've used a wide variety of materials from the supermarket: cookies, candy and cereal, coffee filters, things you will find in your recycling ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’ve always been a fan of footed dishes and cake stands and, when setting up for a party, often end up wishing that I had a few more. Many years ago Marcie created a 1950’s-looking footed compote for a tablesetting story by hot-gluing a simple white plate onto an inverted white bowl. I've kept her ...]]></description>

The eggs were shot for Good Things, but when we tried a few cover options, we thought these guys would work well- what do you think?  We had to reshoot them for ...]]></description>
