How To Cut Pokemon Snowflakes
Hello, friends! Do you love Pokemon crafts? Do you enjoy cutting paper snowflakes? (Wow. You too? I'm so glad to meet you!)
Every winter our family enjoys cutting paper snowflakes together. And every year I try to come up with new cute character themed snowflakes (like these Lego Men Snowflakes and these Snowman Snowflakes.) This year I designed these fun Pokemon Snowflakes since the rest of my family has gone Pokemon crazy. Tada!

How to Make Best Friend Clay Necklaces
Did you own a best friend necklace as a kid? One of my friends recently bought a pair for her daughter and best friend. (They were groovy mood ones. Girls' jewelry has definitely gotten cuter since I was a kid.) I was so inspired by the cute necklaces that my son and I made our own clay friendship necklaces. Aren't they fun?
(And even though these were made for friends, this would be a great gift to make for Mother's Day or Valentine's Day too!)

Origami Friendship Math Quilt Craft
Brr, it's cold outside! Lately I've been enamored with quilt designs and origami crafts. Their bold colors and gorgeous geometric patterns really make me swoon! Today's post combines my love for both crafts. These origami paper quilts are really quite beautiful to look at. Folding them can be a bit of challenge, because there are so many units to fold. But, make them with some friends and you're sure to have some indoor fun during these cold winter nights.

Giant Chinese New Year Dragon Collaborative Art
This past weekend we celebrated Lunar New Year with several friends. There were tons of yummy snacks and (of course) several Chinese New Year crafts and activities! One of my favorites was this giant, collaborative Dragon painting, so I thought I'd share it here today.

Valentine's Day Paper Heart Snowflakes Craft
Should snowflake crafts only be done during December? No way! Snowflake crafts are year round over here. It's almost February and I am loving nights where I can just sit and cut out beautiful designs from paper. Today I'm giving Valentine's Day Crafts a snowflake twist. Tada! How about cutting some paper heart snowflakes?

3D Optical Illusion Heart Drawing Craft
Whoa! Is this heart popping out of the page, or what?
Have you ever seen those 3D hand drawings? You know, the ones that seem to pop out at you? Well, I was really amazed at how those drawings worked. But I wanted to give the art project a Valentine's Day craft twist! This past weekend my son and I drew a ton of these 3D hearts. The results are pretty neat (and the process is extremely addictive!)

Adorable Paper Heart Stuffies (For Valentine's Day!)
Valentine's Day is coming up.... which means that Valentine's Day Crafts are probably on your mind. If your kiddos love cute things, staples, and crumpling paper (or candy).... then this is the craft for you! These adorable paper heart stuffies are poofy crafts filled with kawaii goodness.
We stuffed ours with crumpled paper, but you could definitely fill these up with candy too! (And if you like my specific design, I include a template below. Score!)

Charming Cardboard and Felt Bird Ornaments (Template Included)
I am IN LOVE with today's cardboard and felt bird ornaments. This Christmas craft reminds me of something you would find in Anthropologie. The birds are super sweet and folksy. And they're made of recycled cardboard and scraps of yarn and felt. So they're super easy on the wallet and good for the environment too! Getting excited? Let's get crafting!

Christmas Word Doodle Art Challenges! (Free Printable included!)
The countdown to Christmas is on! I love this season and usually share tons of easy Christmas activities and crafts. But this year it's been tough getting into the Christmas spirit. With all the wildfires in California, we've been more somber and going slightly stir-crazy staying inside. (The smoke is pretty bad.) So today I'm sharing an activity that we recently did. This fun, no-prep, and creative Christmas activity helped us to pass the time while stuck indoors.

Twirly Whirly Paper Snowflake Mobile (And our favorite snow books)
Is it a good time to make snowflake crafts with the kids? The answer to that question is always, "YES!" Snowflake crafts in summer, snowflake crafts in spring, snowflake crafts all time of the year is my personal crafting mantra.
Well, now that we've removed all the Halloween decorations (sob, sob) my son and I are starting to decorate our home for Thanksgiving and Christmas. While I've yet to find a good kids' Turkey craft that I like, I can always count on snowflakes to tide us creatively over while I keep looking.
Today's twirly whirly paper snowflake mobile is just such an easy and fun craft. We made ours ona whim one night together before bed. Don't you just adore it? You get to make snowflakes AND watch them "fall" from a cute cloud.
(Hmm, I bet you could easily incorporate some STEAM lessons with this art activity as well!)

Snowflake Doily Crown
Over here in California we've been getting a lot of rain. And even though I enjoy the colder weather, the east coaster in me misses seeing snowflakes. Today's Winter craft brings a bit of cold weather fun with these adorable snowflake doily crowns.

Lego Snow Jars for Kids (and 6 more Lego inspired projects!)
I'm all about cheap and cheerful crafts... and my son is all about Lego. (I realized we were officially a Lego household when I woke up with a minifigure in my bed the other day. Oy vey!) Inspired by the adorable miniature holiday displays and snowglobes in the stores, my son and I tried crafting our very own. But instead of using animals or cute townspeople, we put a Lego twist on these winter snowglobes. Tada! Here's a SUPER EASY winter snow scene craft.
