Crafts?

I've met a bunch of littles on here that are really into crafts! I am too and was wondering who else was? What types of crafts do you enjoy? I love making anything for Halloween! It's my favorite holiday. I love looking up ideas online and trying to recreate them ( I fail 90% of the time but that doesnt stop me!)

I like making bottle necklace charms. Like galaxies and stuff.

I like coloring but I'm also slowly teaching myself how to crochet. I'm not very advanced but I've made 3 blankets and working on fourth right now. :D 

 

Those are super pretty necklaces too Sweetgirl23!

Is that hard? I've always wanted to learn but I never thought I'd be able to! I went crazy with coloring books today, got a few off amazon! and some new crayons..and colored pencils..I swear I don't have a problem :$

It's not overly difficult once you get the feel for it. It's just a matter of getting to that point but it's really really easy to learn. Like look up Never Ending Granny Square and that's what I'm good. Lmao I did that just the other day!!!! So no worries :D

The necklaces? Well, they are easy to make! I'm trying to sell some right now... I'll post a link of the video showing how to make it.

Also, you can get the glass bottles at Hobby Lobby as well as the eye hooks that go in the top of the corks. Or you can get them online, too.

The link is above, and fyi, i also add a few drops of water to the glue mixture so it'll run into the bottle faster. Also, I reccomend you wear rubber gloves or something when you make this, as the food coloring will stain your fingers... Enjoy! Also, this is not my video....

I'm more into drawing than crafts, but I had a LOT of fun doing scratch board, and those weird iron bead things people do at camp.

TIME TO TEACH! You've all most likely seen scratch board in its cheap form, which is black shiny paper you can scratch off to reveal the color/rainbow/sparkles underneath! It's like an inverted drawing!

The iron bead things are actually called Perler Beads (I had to look up the name lol) and if you ever went to summer camp you TOTALLY saw these! They really are fun for most ages, and worth a try! Its like making pixel art but in 3D!
