What are some fun crafts to do during the Summer?

Posted on April 19th, 2010 by admin in crafts

Me and my friend are trying to find some crafts to do during the Summer because we have been getting pretty bored lately. We have already painted bird houses, picture frames, and jewelery boxes. What other fun crafts are there?

Here is a craft idea that you can do so much with after you are finished with it.

first buy a package of coffee filters. any kind is fine (even a cheap kind) Next get some markers and decorate the coffee filters. don’t do anthing fancy just like swirls and spirals going from the center all the way to the outside. Then fold them in half and half and half until they are like pie pieces (> kind of looks like that. Then dip one end into some water either out of a cup or a bowl and watch the colors run make sure it all gets wet but you don’t need to drench the thing. Just a little bit goes along way trust me you will see when you do it. then after it is wet unfold it and let it dry. It will look pretty crazy and you can do so many things with it.

Examples: make flowers. pinch the middle and twist and put tape around the stem part so it doesn’t come undone.

Use them as a back ground for pictures.

They are so many things you can do with them. Use your imagination.

Hoped this helped!!! Good Luck and have fun.

What are good crafts for preschooler kids?

Posted on April 14th, 2010 by admin in crafts

I babysit two kids, ages 3 and 5. They like crafts but I’m running out of ideas!! I have made tambourines and music shakers, printed off colouring pages, traced & coloured leaves with crayons, let them illustrate small stories, ironed leaves in wax paper (I did the ironing; don’t worry), finger painted and cut out potato stamps to use with paint. What are good crafts to do with them? Halloween crafts would be great but any craft will do. Thanks!

Bats. Paint toilet paper rolls black and glue wings on them and make a scary face. You can hang them with string.

Spiders. Paper machet small balloons. Use laundry starch and strips of news paper. After they dry you can paint them black and stick pipe cleaners in them for legs.

Ghost. Dip cheese cloth into laundry starch and gently ring out the extra. Drape it over a 2 liter soda bottle and let dry. Paint or glue felt for a face. Hang with string.

CraftS ?

Posted on April 11th, 2010 by admin in crafts

What some crafts you can do on a budget and not gay crfts ones that you’d buy in stores?

Origami is good. It is inexpensive-use junk mail (there is a great book for this now) or just find instructions online! The folding projects will spark your creative imagination.
Card Making is good, again with paper supplies, scissors, craft glue as complicate as you make it.
I think ANY craft with recycled materials is good! I have seen sweaters knit from twine that are amazing!
Tin crafting (luminarias, and lanterns) can be fun!
You could use your computer to create word art, like calligraphy samplers and so on…Keep looking around and I am sure you will find something!
Good Luck!
