Spotlight Crafts - Butterfly Sun Catcher, Paper Bag Wreath,
What do you think of this week's spotlight crafts? Do you have a favorite?

  • Paper Bag Wreath Craft - Follow these instructions, shared by Chatzi Maria, and learn how you can make a wreath out of a paper bag.
  • 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.
  • Fisherman's Ruler Craft - Follow these directions and learn how easy it is to make a funny gag gift for a fisherman or fisher woman.
  • Lucky Cricket Craft - Pamela Pomroy shares instructions to make a lucky cricket craft using a clothespin.
