Funfabulous Crafts To Do While You Are At Home

Are you looking for some fun and easy crafts to do at home?  I've got a bunch of ideas just for you!  The great thing is that most of the materials you need to make these crafts are already at your house.  If you're like me, you will want to make all of these awesome crafts right meow!

Jumpin Jellyfish!  This Glow-in-the-dark Jellyfish Craft by Craftiments is just so colorful and makes me so happy.  I love all the colors and I especially love the colorful yarn or Jellyfish tentacles because you can't get stung by these.  Well, let's get started on this funfabulous craft so we can hang them up and let them glow in the dark.

Sparkly and divine these DIY Mason Jar Fairy Lights really are the most beautiful sight I have seen lately!  They are so cool and I think I am on a glow in the dark trend right now.  I am sure that we really need to make these, they are going to help us pass the time and well let's face it, they are super dreamy and we need that kind of relaxation right now for sure.

I am totally in love with this Edible Finger Paint Whipped Cream Glitter!  Not only does it look delicious, but you can eat if you want to.  I like this video because it tells us how to make all kinds of colors and of course, there is glitter everywhere!  I think we can all try this one at home.  It does look really yummy and should prove to be very messy, which we all might like!

Whenever I see the word mini in a craft I get so excited! So, when I saw this How to Make Mini Volcanoes tutorial on the S&S blog I couldn't wait to check it out.  You can't go wrong with this craft, it has it all craftiness, science, chemistry, and an explosion of fun.  If you like the chemical reaction you get from the baking soda and the vinegar, you can do this activity over and over again.  This might be something you can work on while at home and possibly even get school credit for, it's that cool!

Here's another mini-project for you, or should I say a mighty mini-project???  I love this Mini Lid Banjo craft by The Craft Train. This fun craft will be entertaining for the whole family and you can play these babies all day long if you want to because they really work!  I'm going to make these and then I will be strumming some fancy banjo songs to amuse myself and the fam and I'll be dreaming of my time up on the big stage.  I hope you try these out!



I hope you enjoy these crafts as much as I do and that you have a chance to try them out at home.  If you make them please share photos on my blog, I would love that!

See you again soon when it's time to get crafty!
