I think it was Henry who suggested using cookie cutters with clay.  I'vedone that a lot and then made the shapes into tree ornaments or put magnetson the back to put on the refrigerator.  I have so many cookie cutters Iusually have a shape that is special to my friends and family so can make anornament or magnet especially for them.Nella-----Original Message-----From: Nfb-krafters-korner [mailto:nfb-krafters-korner-bounces at nfbnet.org] OnBehalf Of Becky Frankeberger via Nfb-krafters-kornerSent: Wednesday, March 15, 2017 3:22 PMTo: 'List for blind crafters and artists'Cc: Becky FrankebergerSubject: Re: [Nfb-krafters-korner] Want To Know WednesdayJumping off Nella's idea of using clay to make shapes then using Velcro ormagnets to make pictures. I love that idea. Picture a green felt square, onthe square are a park bench, trash can, sculptures, child's ball, veryartistic idea. Or animals milling around on another. What a lovely gift togive someone. Maybe a football theme, goal posts, base Brum, Figure of acheerleader, football player flerting. Or baseball theme: baseball, bat, hotdog sitting on a picnic table, baseball diamond. Sorry my creative juicesare just having so much fun with this idea. Oh squares for a checker board,smile.Becky   But again, start with simple shapes she can be successful doing.-----Original Message-----From: Nfb-krafters-korner [mailto:nfb-krafters-korner-bounces at nfbnet.org] OnBehalf Of Nella Foster via Nfb-krafters-kornerSent: Wednesday, March 15, 2017 12:02 PMTo: nfb-krafters-korner at nfbnet.orgCc: Nella Foster Subject: [Nfb-krafters-korner] Want To Know WednesdaySorry I'm posting this so late, but the day has just gotten away from me.   Linda's question about the client with one hand has really made me stop andthink.  I can't imagine not being able to do something with my hands.  Itend to be a little fidgety, so having something to do really helps me.  Ican't imagine how frustrating it must be to want to do things and not beable to.  She can probably picture crafts and projects in her mind, butdoesn't have a way of executing them. How many of you have ever wanted to participate in a craft, but were unableto do so because of your disability? If so, what was the craft? What equipment or adaptive techniques do you use to make crafting possible? What new crafts would you like to try, but you're not sure how to make themaccessible? I look forward to this discussion.
