The Lunchtime Crafting Club

Help me give my students some really fun and creative crafts to make.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. McFarlane's classroom raised $490

This project is fully funded

My Project

I was inspired to begin a lunchtime crafting club by a student who complimented the handmade felt flower I had pinned onto my cardigan. I have also had compliments on the hand-knitted scarves I wear in the winter. I want to share my crafting hobbies with students at Westchester High chool.

Many students at school would enjoy knitting, crocheting, and crafting during lunchtime.

They would be able to make cute items to wear and to share with friends and family.

The crafting supplies that I am requesting would let students knit or crochet scarves, hats, toys, and blankets. They could also make hair clips, clothing pins, and home decorations.
