Pablo Picasso enjoyed doing collages, but you don't have to be a famous artist to make a collage!

Collage can be as basic as cutting pictures you like out of a magazine and gluing them onto a piece of paper. You can use one type of medium, such as magazine pictures, or combine several together such as tissue paper, magazine pages, tin foil, or fabric. The process can be as simple or as complex as you want it to be. Learn how-to collage...

Terra Cotta clay pots can be used to make many different craft items. You can transform them into decorative containers, bells, bird baths, gift baskets, and much more. You can decorate them with paint, markers, or rubber stamps; and add details by using rub-on decals, stencils, decoupage techniques, or shaped sponges. Embellish them with pom-poms, felt, pipe cleaners, feathers, buttons, and just about any other item you can think of!

Find out how you can make wonderful clay pot treasures and then submit your own project ideas and photos. I hope you enjoy making your clay pot creations as much as I did!

Did you know if you capture a Leprechaun he will lead you to his pot of gold and give it to you as a bribe to let him go?

Leprechauns are tricky fellows, so you must be creative when deciding on a way to try to catch him. You can try to lure him to you and grab him, or you can try to build a Leprechaun trap. Try some of these fun and creative suggestions about how to make a Leprechaun trap. I can't guarantee you will catch one of these little fellows, but you will sure have fun trying!

For the last craft challenge, I decided to focus on pirates. What do you think of these pirate related craft projects?

• Pirate Flag Craft

• Pirate Hat Craft

• Parrot Bucket Craft

• Polly's Treasure Chest Craft

• Kid's Pirate Costume

• More Pirate Crafts

Remember, submissions are still being accepted for any and all past Make-It-Over Craft Challenges, including the pirate craft challenge. You can submit your ideas using this simple form.

Now, here is where I would normally introduce the new craft theme or craft item and challenge you to submit related crafts. Do you notice there is no picture or new challenge issued? That is because I am rethinking this weekly feature. Submissions have dropped off so much that I am starting to think that perhaps our Make-it-Over Monday craft challenges have run their course?

I have not made any firm decisions about this yet. I really am torn because I do love issuing the challenges and then seeing what people come up with; however, I have to wonder if perhaps everyone is ready to try something else. If you have any ideas, I am open to hearing them. Feel free to use the comment feature on this post. For the time being, I am simply going to continue to try to decide how to move forward with this feature and I will post more news about it next week!
