Here’s a simple craft for kids to make using a paper plate! It’s fun for a Spring or summer time art project. Younger kids in preschool and kindergarten love this!

Materials Needed:

• Paper Plate
• Tissue paper
• Glue
• Scissors

These floral crafts are my personal favorite and though they are time consuming they look absolutely ravishing when done. If you are well versed in making paper flowers you can make this craft at home by cutting out letters out of cardboard and fill it with sponge, and then insert flowers into it. Either flowers of dual or multiple colors will look great.

I kept the box simple since the paper is so pretty and added a few flower rosettes cut from Cricut Flower Shoppe cartridge, wrapped the box with a raffia bow and stamped a Thankful sentiment.

I saw a great image of this project for a hanging lightbulb planter a few times on Pinterest, but had trouble finding instructions that showed how to make it. After spending far too long digging, with no luck, I figured it could not be that hard to do, and it is not. I like this project, because it is unusual and adds a lot of visual impact, but costs nothing and takes very little time. You can actually put lots of things other than flowers in these lightbulb vases, and the vase does not have to hang. I propped one on a tealight and set it on an end table, and it looks great. Once you have emptied the lightbulb of the glass, you can get pretty creative. I intend to post additional projects soon, but if you have ideas for a cool project using repurposed lightbulbs, let me know. I would love to hear about it and post photos.
