Parents rejoice... it's back-to-school season! And as kiddos head back to the classroom (albeit rather joyfully or begrudgingly) this season offers freshness and a clean slate. It's the changing of the leaves, a fresh new start, and the opportunity to dive into a whole new fun category of crafting! Decorations, teacher gifts, or even back-to-school outfits for our dolls, we've compiled a few of our favorite back-to-school crafts from the creative brains of some of our most treasured Made It Myself TV Makers including Creative Living with Lynn Lilly, My Froggy Stuff, and Fave Crafts. So grab your supplies and let's get crafting!
Teachers and parents need to tote around alllllllll the things. That's why they love bags! With so many things to constantly haul around, having a cute and durable tote bag that was lovingly made by hand will surely be a much-used and loved treasure for years to come. And all you need for this craft is a white tote bag, a pencil, a ruler, and fabric markers.
Let's not forget about our dolls as we prepare for back to school! They surely can use some new outfits as well. And this is exactly where My Froggy Stuff comes in. On this episode, she shows us how to make a stylish sweater out of dollar store socks and distressed jeans out of a thin denim material. Now your dolls will be just as stylish as you are for back-to-school season. This one requires some sewing with needle and thread and it's sew very fun!
Want to give your boring pencils a little flair? Then these easy tissue paper pencil toppers are just what you need! Tissue paper, die cutting machine, die cut leaves, and mat pins. These cute toppers will make writing and learning more fun and you'll never lose your pencil again. You can make up a whole batch and even give them as gifts!
Can we all agree that teachers deserve a little....or a lot....of pampering? This is why these fizzy DIY bath bombs are an excellent gift or addition to a gift bag or basket for your kiddo's new teacher. Just add baking soda, cream of tartar (or citric acid), epsom salts, food coloring, olive oil, water, shaped molds, and some oils if desired. Compile your ingredients and let Chris from FaveCrafts show you how it's done. Fun and oh so luxurious, you're going to love this one!
There you have it, an entertaining and enjoyable array of fun back-to-school crafts! Which one will you be diving into first?
