Crafts RSS FeedsFast Craft: How to Grow a Necklace - This week, I am working in my garden, planting the last of my vegetables. That is what inspired this week's fast craft project! Kids, young and old, will love making a necklace that they can watch grow. All you need for this craft is an empty pill bottle (or other small, see-through container), some cotton balls, a piece of yarn about 24-inches long, and a flower or vegetable seed. I chose a green bean seed because it was large and easy to see through the container and it started growing fast. You can read the back of the seed packages to see how fast the seed will grow. Start off by putting one or two cotton balls into the pill bottle. Sprinkle a little bit of water on the cototn balls, and then place a seed on the cotton balls. Top it off with one more cotton ball. Moisten that cotton ball with a little more water. Tie the center of your piece of yarn around t...Feed Source: familycrafts.about.com Graduation Planning -

I decided to post this fast craft because I have been using my flyswatter a lot lately! Of course, you should do this craft with a fly swatter before it is used for it's intended purpose!
To make flyswatter pictures, you simply need an unused flyswatter, a piece of paper, some paint, and a paint brush. Use the paint brush to cover one side of the flyswatter with paint; then, press the painted side of the flyswatter onto the paper. That's it!
You can make a flyswatter masterpiece by making several different prints using different colors on your piece of paper. Another idea is, once all of the paint is dry, draw flies onto your picture using a black marker. You can also draw some fly onto the paper before you use the flyswatter to paint it. You can then make the flyswatter print on top of the flies!
I hope you enjoy this fast craft. If you have a fun, fast craft ... Still Time for Mother's Day Planning -

Fast Craft: Make and Share a Warm Fuzzy -
Besides being fast, this is a very fun and easy craft for all ages to make. You will want to make one for everyone you know and watch them smile as you present them with a 'warm fuzzy'!
Start out with a little hunk of fur. This can be purchased from a store or, better yet, recycled from an old stuffed animal, winter hat, or other fuzzy source. Using one of these sources, you might be able to make several crafts. It can really be cut into any size or any shape. Once you have it cut out, glue on a couple of wiggle eyes and a small pom-pom to be the nose. That is it! once the glue dries your warm fuzzy is ready to share.
I hope you enjoy this fast craft. If you have a fun, fast craft to share, please take a moment to submit it using this simple form.
