The CK Daily – Fall Craft Projects
Happy Monday!
I enjoyed another Fall weekend and was able to get some outdoor chores done. I encouraged my daughters to collect some sticks and acorns for a little crafting project we’ll be starting next week.
We discovered this very intriguing artist while watching random youtube videos. His name is David M Bird, and he’s created Becorns, woodland creatures crafted from acorns and other natural materials. He’s pretty creative and I encourage you to check out his work! We’re going to “attempt” and that’s a very charitable word to create Becorns of our own, I think it will be a fun crafting project. Wish us luck!
I’m trying to draw my daughters away from too much time with electronics. Do you have any fun and successful crafting projects you’d like to share? I’d love to hear about them! Have a great week!
