Sand Art Crafts

Did anyone see how to make the pop open treats from the cardboard tissue rolls featured on Martha Stewart? It was during October when they did the Halloween crafts and decorations. I went home for lunch, turned on the TV and just missed how to make them. The part I missed had something to do with a ribbon or string attached somehow. Martha and one of her camera men each pulled the ribbon or string from each end and, it popped open and the treats fell out. I tried looking on her web site, but I wasn't sure what they were called and my search didn't reveal anything like that. If I can find out how to make them, I thought they would make really cool treat filled stocking stuffers for my kids this year.

What are some good crafts a 9 year old can make for arts/crafts show? This show is held in early December, and is heavily attended. There is a place for kids to set up booths and sell their wares. I'm trying to help my daughter think of things that would be good sellers with a decent profit margin. Help me brainstorm! So far we've come up with: - bookmarks made with marbled cardstock (she'll do the marbling) - Christmas greeting cards - dishsoap dispensers like Martha Stewart showed the other day, made of small wine bottles and a liquor spout (if you think this is a good idea, do you know where to buy those small fancy bottles that wouldn't cost that much?) - homemade paper (doubting she has the time or energy to do much of this) Even if you can't think of anything, I'd love if you would take the time to comment on the ideas we already have, including what you think would and wouldn't sell to a "country style" crowd just before Christmas, and what you would think the items could be priced. Thanks a lot for your help!

Arts and Crafts Store layout and idea? I need ideas that will entice kids to enter the store and want to take scrapbooking and all types of arts and crafts and for adults who want to buy items for D-I-Y projects like martha stewart projects

What's the name of that show on PBS? I've seen it a couple of times and I can't remember the name of it... It has this over excited, Martha Stewart type lady talking about craft and art projects for kids.
