My Project

My students love technology free craft projects to unwind. I love crafting and want to share my love for hands on projects and screen free time with students. We have students who take a crochet class after school, but students who play sports aren't able to attend. I would like to have supplies for them to learn a craft.

Woobles kits are the hottest crochet kit at our school.

My studnets love these kits! What makes them so great is that they come with video directions that guide you through the process of making an anigrumi crochet project.

Besides crochet, I have some students whoa are interested in learning how to cross stitch. Kits are a great way to learn as all the supplies are ready for you and they come with printed directions. Sticker by number is a great way for students to unwind. The students love having these to keep with them in class for when they are done with their work or to work on in the library during lunchtime. The last craft item in this donors choose project is a 4-pack of diamond painting plus the glue to keep the beads attached.

Storage is always a concern with craft supplies, I have also included some new storage bins to help contain the beads that we have in the library for jewelry making so that students can share supplies while they keep organized.

Thank you for considering donating to our scholars who love to craft!
