Craftsy dog-lovers will leap for joy at the
seventeen fun ideas in this softcover book. Kids Can Press specializes
in projects that kids can do themselves, and makes sure the materials
are easy to find, too.
Open the cover and the first thing you'll
see is a cute framed picture of a pooch. The frame is edged in
colored dog bisquits--small "bones" that are glued
to an inexpensive frame. (Keep the frame out of Rover's reach,
though!)
Other projects include:
Switchplate cover
Keyholder hooks - uses cup hooks, cardboard, glue, and paint.
(Cute!)
Dangling dog necklace - uses polymer clay
Doggy bookend - adorable doghouse holds your books
in place
Decorated lampshade
Canine Clipboard
Illustrated step-by-step instructions make
this a great resource when you want to make a gift--or, give
the book to a canine-loving friend. It's forty pages of fun for
ages 9-12. (Be sure to check out Cat
Crafts, written by the same author.)
