Library Love + Swap News!

 

Over the summer I volunteered to teach some craft classes at our local library.

I did some simple crafts with the younger kids and a weekly art journaling class with the teenagers.

The kids all did an amazing job with their projects.

Especially the art journals ~ I wish I had photos to share!

I had put together some ideas and journaling prompts, and brought a bunch of fun supplies to play with.

They had fun cutting and pasting and putting together collages.

I really loved how they didn't over-analyze or stress over how things were looking.

They just went with it.

And they had a blast.

I love that about kids.

The library asked me to decorate a clipboard for a fundraiser they are having.

I decided to make a She Art-inspired piece.

I really love the technique.

It's fun to get a little messy and just go with it.

School starts next week.

Definitely bittersweet.

We had a great summer, but I'm looking forward to getting back to "normal".

I was thinking that it would be a great time to host a new swap.

Look for an announcement and sign-ups on Friday!!!
