Creative Uses for Magazines

So, you’ve finished reading your fantastic magazine from National Magazine Exchange, and it’s time to figure out what to do next.  Do you throw away the magazine (No!). Do you recycle it in the recycling bin (Sure, you can).  Another idea which is certainly more creative and more fun is to make cool envelopes with the magazine pages.  If you are sending a letter to someone who loves cars, for instance, you can use pictures of cars to create the envelope. 

If you are artistic, you can use pictures from the magazines to practice your art.  Choose a medium, including chalk drawing, water colors, or other ideas, and get to work practicing with the magazine example.

Have fun using magazines creatively.  This offers you two opportunities to love your magazine subscription. First, you get to enjoy reading the magazine and then you get to enjoy doing something creative with it!

Crafty Mom Ideas

Not all moms are crafty.  Yes, I know that everyone thinks that moms are supposed to be crafty – but that isn’t a skill that they hand to you in the hospital with the diapers that you take home for your infant.  So, how is the ordinary mom who can’t build a model airplane supposed to cope with all of the art projects that kids want to do?

Getting the craft help that you need doesn’t have to be a daunting task at all.  Today, there are so many craft magazines on the market, that you could actually have a new craft idea every single day of the week if you wanted it!  To order a magazine subscription from National Magazine Exchange or another company takes virtually no time at all, and it will offer at least a year worth of craft ideas.

This type of resource really becomes a lifesaver!  Each issue in a craft magazine offers new and interesting ideas for kids of all ages.  Whether you have one child, or a whole birthday party of kids, you’ll find activities and suggestions with step-by-step instructions that just about any parent can follow.  Have fun building!
