encouraging quality work

Does anyone have any fun, positive and effective tips for getting elementary
students to do their best quality work? I don't want to take the joy out of
creating by being too nitpicky or critical but I would like to encourage
good craftsmanship and teach its importance. I do ask questions to help the
student see what else could be done which works for most students. However
I still have some students who rush in order to get to the next project or
to draw in their sketchbooks or some just insist they like it the way it is.
