Someone recently told me that having Crafty Night once-a-month makes it seem like a special holiday. And I couldn't agree more!!! I'm still buzzing from last Tuesday's crafty holiday!
And last week I also got to introduce my girls to cootie catchers. (Also called "fortune tellers".) American Girl Crafts (which I am TOTALLY IN LOVE WITH!!) has a kit that is so amazing for those just beginning to make cootie catchers. The folds are all pre-scored & there are 8 different designs in the kit, complete with stickers & "fortunes". Super fun!
The week ended with a night of bowling, complete with super nachos, grilled ham & cheese, cheesy fries, a super deluxe large root beer....but surprisingly: no heart burn.
Happy Monday!

What an uplifting post! Your crafty night sounds like great fun. I'd love to hear about how your organized this, how long you've been doing it, etc. What are Cootie Catchers? We have no little ones in our family. I'm out of the loop.

Hi Donna!

Oh darn, I meant to put a link in the post about what a cootie catcher was. Thanks for the reminder!

And I think I will have to write a blog post very soon about Crafty Night because I'm getting a lot of questions about it. I've basically been doing it for about a year I think.
