Why not make all of the crafts this week. Some you can play with and some would make great gifts.
  • Soap Petal Guest Soaps - Sharon Jensen, from Creative Origins, shares directions for making small guest soaps that look like flower petals.

  • Glowing Bug Necklace - Have your child make this easy craft while you are waiting to leave for a camping trip or even on the way to your destination. After dark, they can activate the glow stick with your help and add some fun colors around the camp fire.

  • Duct Tape Clutch Bag Craft - Kidswonderart.com explains how to create an adorable clutch bag using duct tape.

  • Elephant Puppet Craft - Make this Elephant Puppet out of a paper plate and construction paper.

  • Sparkless Sparkler Craft - Kids can dance around with these home-made sparklers all day and all night, or you can make them to tuck into plants or table centerpieces to add a little burst of color.

  • Spice Rack Craft - Sassy Gal explains how she made an adorable spice rack that matches her kitchen!

  • Puzzle Piece Frame Craft - Kathryn explains how her son made a frame using old puzzle pieces and craft sticks.

Enjoy, and remember, if you complete any of these crafts, take a few moments to send me a picture and it can be featured here too!
