These Barbies don't have to go to the library any more! They have got their own home-made books! You can make your dolls some too. Just cut a felt rectangle and sew a border around the edge. Fold the rectangle in half and sew on the fold.
Next make a stack of little papers to fit inside and staple them together to form a book. Glue the book inside the cover.
Here comes the fun part.....decorating!
If you have any, glue little nick nacks on. You can sew a picture or title on the front.
Happy reading!

Cloth locket DIY
I made this cloth locket with felt.
I printed a small picture to put inside.
You can use a needle and thread to sew a string through to make a necklace.
Cut out a circle on the fold of your felt and scallop the edges so it looks like an oyster.
You can glue a picture inside and even include a note if you're giving it to someone.
It's a good gift for a friend.

Kidmade Coasters DIY (fromhttp://www.henryhappened.com)
My mom found this idea online here : http://www.henryhappened.com and is was really easy to do.
I used 3 simple steps
1. Gather 2 squares of felt and some cut strips of felt, scissors and a needle and thread
2. Cut slits through one of the felt squares and weave the strips over and under them.
3. Cut off the excess felts and sew the other square on to it.
These coasters are good for hot or cold drinks and keep them from damaging your table.
Have fun sipping!

I can bake!
I made some cookies all by myself. It was a lot of fun to do everything from start to finish (including clean-up). I made 21 M&M cookies and they lasted 2 days!

Last Minute St. Patrick's Day craft
This colorful pinata is a great last minute project. Other may use cardboard and tape, but this one is just paper. I wasn't it sure at break at first, but after everyone had a turn it did. It was filled with chocolate coins and was a big hit!(get it?)
