I was looking in a drawer just this morning and found some of the tak stuff. Good idea.

It's me again. I tried three different stores (while in search of my own scrapping misc this weekend)with no luck. Is there any way you can take the one large piece of paper and cut snake shapes out of it? You should be able to get several "snakes", which could be used for both boys' albums. Good luck!

This last post was it...thanks so much all of you. Tami..the pattern is a 7 inch circle cut in half for the skirt. I remember using my hot gun to glue them together. Then glue the sleeves to the skirt. And glue the glass ball to the top of the cone. You have to smash the point of the cone down so you can glue the ball on top. It really helps to watch the tutorial. I have a lacy punch I used for the bottom. The wings..ya just gotta 'wing' it.....lol I just cut out a pattern for mine. I'm sure you can do it. I made several last year and gave them all away. I hope I have some glass balls left over...I want to make them for the hidden give away ornaments. patti

Depending on how many you're keeping and if you plan to use them within the next year or two, or the ones you just like to look at, get some 3-ring binders and those plastic sleeves to slip the patterns into. Put them in by priority and when used, replace it with the next in line. Not the perfect plan, but at least it keeps the patterns more visible and accessible. I've done this with quilt patterns and label the binders by categories. On the other hand, sometimes it's just time to let them go.
