Homemade Crafts
Making arts and crafts at home is fun for both kids and grownups. Not only do you get to create something from your own ingredients, but you can often save money while doing so.
We have lots of crafts that kids will enjoy making and using. Finger paint, play dough, and homemade bubbles will keep the kiddos entertained for hours. Please keep in mind, however, that not all recipes here are safe for kids to make without adult supervision. Some are to be made for kids, not by kids.
We don't just have crafts for kids, either. We also have recipes for things you can use around your house like gourmet potpourri, festive scented pinecones, candied tea stirrers, and even a recipe for making homemade dried flowers.
