Craft-a-Day is filled with 365 simple and unique craft projects to make throughout the year. It includes weekly themes, templates, step-by-step instructions and more than 400 adorable photographs! Author Sarah Goldschadt has created a charming book filled with craft ideas for all ages. The projects are simple enough for children and too cute not to want to make yourself! I’m all about keeping things simple when it comes to crafting and this book was so up my alley with its gorgeous photos and unique, down to earth ideas.
My daughter Emily {age 10} spent a whole afternoon pouring over the book and created this little ghost garland and matching hair barrett inspired by one of Sarah’s projects. She was able to follow the instructions all by herself and it was a lot of fun watching her get creative with such a simple set of supplies! Did you know you can download 6 bonus projects from Craft-a-Day here!?
