Kids Crafting

Comments (7)

I saw this online somewhere over the weekend and got really excited. Thinking IMMEDIATLEY that the kids could have some fun crafting for an afternoon. So i picked up some of those clear glass bulbs you can decorate and called up Erin & Jessica and begged them to come over for an afternoon of crafting.

So first you gather up all of your novelty yarn, or leftovers, or intresting yarns like Jessica is demonstrating here


then you cut pieces and stuff them in


here’s jessica making one


and zander

and when we were done we had 18 of these:



this was simple and fun enough to hold the kid’s attention for at least 12 bulbs. So it was a success, plus erin and i discovered they are kind of addictive to make!
So thank you erin and jessica for coming over this afternoon. It was very much fun crafting with y’all!

That is so cool!  Are they special glass bulbs that you bought or just regular ones?

Wow! Those are gorgeous! It’s a wonderful idea for all the pretty scrap yarn lying around. Where did you get the bulbs from?

oh they look fantastic - I had been thinking of making some but I figured I’d drive myself batty stuffing yarn into the little hole!

Good luck at Renegade this weekend!

What a great idea!! Those all look really great. These could be done in colour themes or you could put beads in them too!
