Sandermom Posted December 29, 2021 Report Share Posted December 29, 2021 (edited) Hi guys, hopefully I'm in the right place for this. If there's a better place to ask this, I'd love some redirection advice! I'm a public librarian planning a "Sander-celebration" at our library for next month. We'll be having book discussions, games, etc. I'd like to come up with a couple of fairly simple crafts that we could put out for people to do, but I'm coming up blank. Everything I've thought of so far is too complicated (knit a doomslug like at dragoncon), too messy/long (epoxy resin spheres) or too simple and potentially expensive (vials of metals). I need something that will take a few minutes of effort to complete, fairly inexpensive materials, no special talents, or permanent mess. Is there such a thing? I'm hoping you creative minds can help me think of something! Edited January 5, 2022 by Sandermom 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marukka Posted December 29, 2021 Report Share Posted December 29, 2021 First thing that comes to mind is wood burning. Inexpensive material (untreated wood in the form you like, I prefer breakfast boads (like chopping boards but smaller), some printed designs, carbon paper to transfer the desing onto the wood and a burning kit that costs about 25$ (mine costed about that, but in Germany)). I "learned" that very easy craft in a small workshop at my daughter's kindergarden. The woodburning kits provided there were borrowed from several other mums. I'll add a picture of a breakfast board I did for my little girl. Again, it's really easy to do and the results are surprisingly great. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circumlocutions Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 You could use some of those spirographs for people to "create" a cryptic. You could have them do it on paper or get fabric markers and draw them on cheap bags or a t-shirt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
