The Googled-Eyed Monster Bag
Is this bag creepy or crazy?
Cut features out of thick greenfeltand hot-glue in place (an adults job).
Draw on pupils with permanent marker.
Repeat with other sizes (largest to smallest); let dry.
Patch it Up!
When it comes to patches, pins and buttons, more is more!
Help your child pin the patches in place and arrange until he likes the mix.
Glue or iron (an adults job) them on according to package instructions.
Then attached any buttons and pins.
Pom-Pom Party
The perky trim is as funky and bright as your childs personality.
Cut several 18-inch lengths of pom-pom trim.
Glue into place (we used Fabri-Tac) leaving a short overhang on each side.
Let dry, then cut the ends.
Starstruck Bag
Encourage your kids to connect the dots into his own constellations.
Connect a few into real or imagined constellations.

Friendship Charms
Flatten air-dry clay to 12 inch thick.
Use a cookie cutter to make a shape; cut it in half.
Paint it; let dry; coat with gloss varnish; let dry again.
