Pipe cleaner ring

 
 
Easy peasey pipe cleaner flower ring.
 
Great quick and easy craft for children. Not even going to bore you with instructions as it's that easy.
Check out the photos.
 






 
 
 
 
 

Paper vase form junk

 
 
Cheeky crisp tube vase



While Dylan was doing junk modelling I spied a crisp tube.
 
Well I just can't help myself, I had to craft and this one couldn't be any easier.
 
take a look at my fabulous junk vase!
 
 




Recycle junk modelling craft for kids

 
Junk? or mater piece waiting to be made?
 
 
 
Don't ever say you don't have the stuff to do a craft.
You don't need expensive things.
 
 
 
Scraps of paper, News paper, old packaging, Paper, plastic or card, Toilet rolls, sponges, old flower pots whatever you have you can use.
Junk modelling is one of the crafts kids go crazy for because its a free for all, make what you like craft.
And with that in mind that's what me and Dylan did today.
 

 
 
He made a rubbish truck and rubbish factory that he has been playing with all day!
 

 
Have a go let their imagination go wild, sit back, but out and let them get creative, inside or outside this is a craft for all weather.

Elmer the Elephant

Elmer the Elephant plastic milk jug craft
 
 
 
I have seen these on a few blogs,
 and wanted to make some with Dylan and what better time to do it than in the summer holidays!
Really easy (as with everything that I make) and fun to do.
 
 
 
You will need,
Plastic milk jug any size,
Different coloured tissue paper, a lot easier to stick to the jug than paper,
Card for ears,
Googly eyes,
Scissors
Sticky tape
and loads of Pva glue.
 
 
 
Cut out shape of elephant,
 cover hole in top of milk jug with sticky tape,
cover with pva glue, stick on squares of tissue paper,
cover the card ears and stick on,
leave to dry and there you have it a pretty good Elmer the elephant.
 
For a different look use other colours like the Red, Purple and Pink one I made!
