One thing I really love is to re-use items, and to use items to craft with is fun! Here are a *few* awesome crafts we did the past year and a half, and best of all: you most probably have the materials needed, so it is free to make!
We will take part in a series called Junk Play Challenge that starts tomorrow, so here’s some inspiration on how to use junk in crafts!
