I love to be artsy and craftsy, but I lack inspiration. I need someone that is willing to tell me what to make. Sort of like when I was in college and taking my art classes. I wasn’t a bad artist, but I always did better with an assignment rather than just a free form task. I’m sort of a non-creative creative person.
Anyway, Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores has a great Cape Discovery section that promotes kid-friendly craft projects for the summer. At my location Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Store it was right up front so you couldn’t miss it. You can also go on-line and look at the crafts in the spring catalog to get some ideas. I decided to try the ombre dyed t-shirts because I really liked the look of them. Of course I couldn’t leave well enough alone, but decided to try mixing the ombre effect with a more traditional tie dye look. I think I came up with a pretty cute blend of the two.
Jo-Ann’s has a ton of great ideas for summer. I know my sister-in-law and her children would love them. They are super creative and crafty. I can’t wait to hear which craft you pick.
Please feel free to pin and repin my craft using the hashtag #summerofjoann. If my craft gets the most repins I have a chance to win $100 Jo-Ann gift card!.
