Make a Craft Kit

Gather together craft supplies for yourself or a special kid.

Create your own handy craft kit that you can carry around anywhere and have your supplies ready to go at a moments notice! Try using these ideas or think of some yourself. To the right is a picture of my craft supply kit and below are lists of the supplies in my kit plus more ideas.

I started out with a plain plastic 14-inch by 11-inch box I bought for $4.99. I chose this size so paper would fit in it perfectly. I then used acrylic paint and stickers to decorate it. I also sprayed Crystal Clear brand Acrylic Coating over the dried paint so it would last longer, but this is optional.

Once I got it decorated, I filled it with my supplies. I decorated empty film containers and a small plastic case with dividers (approx. $1.99) that I had laying around the house. These are handy for holding small items like beads, pom-poms, wiggles eyes, etc.
