did u ever go to a craft camp when u were little? do u remember any specific crafts from it?
i remember one where we made crayon shavings and the leader melted them between sheets of wax paper. then we cut a butterfly shape out from the center of a piece of black paper and set it on top to show the pretty colors of the melted crayons in the middle as the wings n body of the butterfly. it was a lot of fun and turned out really cool. are there any crafts u remember from any camp u went to?
well, with that crap attitude im sure nobody wanted u in their craft camp anyway evil female

never have never will. “craft camp” is “crap camp”
yes actually, I remeber one time we curled up pipe cleaners into curly things then glue them together to make people!
When I went ot camp we always had thease kits, that had activites for us to make. My favrot thing that I ever made was a Veggie leather (plastic leather) Coin Purse. it ws a rectangel we folded in 3ed’s and punched holes with a leather punch, and than laced up the sides. we put a snap on it too. I still have mine I made it like over 15 years ago adn its still my favrot change purse.
Mine wasn’t a “craft camp” but I think all kids camps have crafts as part of their activities. The item I remember liking the most was a bottle cap snake.
We had to bring a set amount of bottle caps (like off a beer bottle or soda bottle). We then spray painted them different colors and hammered a nail through the middle of each cap & strung them to a length of approximately 2 feet. The end pieces were knotted and we made a clay head & tail that we painted. The bottlecaps flexed like a snake and it looked really cool!
Thanks for the great memory of camp!
My favorite was the cigar box covered with macaroni and spray painted gold! MAn it was beautiful when i was 7. Kept all my important stuff in there.
I had Girl Scout camp & we made tons of fun things like:
-an outdoor lantern made of a tin can with holes punched into it in some cute design, so the candle’s light inside would show thru the holes.
-potato stamps…we took 1/2 a potato & carved a design into the cut 1/2, leaving a heart or star shape sticking out to stamp with (basically like any rubber stamp would look, but carved out of a potato)
-Ivory soap carvings…take a bar of ivory soap, room temperature or heated alittle in the sun. carve like wood, but with a plastic picnic knife. Messy, clean fun!
-Lanyards…lots of those.
-Gravestone rubbings…a bit morbid, but spooky graveyard fun for kids. Take construction paper & chalk, find a gravestone with a cool design, put the paper over design & shade the chalk over it, leaving an imprint on the paper.
i learned to do leatherwork and ceramics at camp, leather was at 4 h camp and ceramics was at a girl scout camp. i learned woodcarving at scout camp too, we made spoons. a few years ago i carved myself a walking staff with a unicorn and a bird on it, so things do progress.
