Crafts for boys??
November 16, 2007 09:43

I have always had an easy time thinking of neat stuff to craft for my granddaughters - but I also have grandsons - and find myself at a loss as to what I could do for them - that would be something handmade from Grandma....

Any ideas? Have one 17 year old....and one 12 year old...

Any craft idea would be great - I'm game to try anything!

Thanks!

Trish

One item that has been very popular here are the no-sew blankets. You can buy two yards of fleece (from your local fabric store) with a print that is applicable to the receiver. Buy two yards of complimentary fleece for the back. Strip the edges and tie the two layers together with square knots. If you need detailed instructions, let me know. Donna sewandso.wordpress.com

Thanks so much for that! I have seen them, but never considered them til you said that - that just may be the ticket!

Donna, the blankets sound really cool but I can't picture what you mean. Can you describe more?

Still Looking for boy crafts? My son used to like making thing out of leather. Punching holes and lacing the pieces together to make key chain fobs, bookmarks and simple wallets
