Crafternoon: Shrinky Dinks
Join us on Monday, August 5th for a Shrinky Dink Crafternoon. We’ll be drawing our own unique designs on Shrinky Dink material. This material shrinks and looks like glass after being baked. Make a keychain, jewelry or ornament.
*Be aware that after creating your design it will need to bake. Bake & wait time will be dependent on attendance. There will be the option to take your Shrinky Dink unbaked to finish in a personal toaster or conventional oven.
This is a free event with supplies provided, but limited. No registration is required.

Gingerbread Craft
You will need crayons or markers, a scissor, glue, and various decorations like buttons, craft paper, pipe cleaners, etc. Whatever you would like to decorate your gingerbread with.
Here is the template. Cut out your gingerbread either on brown paper or just color it. Then start decorating. You can also design a house with a brown paper bag or just draw one!
Paint Blot Creatures
This craft is a messy one but lots of fun. Be sure to have some newspaper down for a workspace or do it outside. All you will need beyond that is a black marker or pen, some cardstock or watercolor paper, and paint.
Fold your paper in half and open it back up. Add small drips of paint in a couple of different colors around the paper until you like how they are arranged. Once you are satisfied with the placement, fold the paper in half again along the crease already made. Rub on the outside of the paper to spread the paint around. Open it back up and observe your design. Do you see a creature or two in the different colors and shapes? Let your painting dry completely. Then, go back in with your marker or pen and outline your creatures! Add in any details you would like. This is a fun project to spark the imagination, and is fun for all ages!!
