Stepping Stones

Stepping stones are a fun camp craft that campers of all ages can make.  You can use a variety of materials to decorate your stepping stones including pebbles, ceramic or glass tiles and of course a little imagination.  There are different shaped molds readily available at most craft stores.  Be sure to check this out at Spoonful.

Fiber Lab: Paper Bracelet

 
 
I came across this blog post by Justina Yang at where techy meets pretty + etc.  This looks like a fun and inexpensive paper craft.  I love budget friendly crafts. 
 
In this tutorial Justina used a craft knife to score the paper; I would substitute a sharpened piece of wooden dowel.  Take a wooden dowel that is the same diameter as a pencil and cut the dowel the length of a pencil.  Sharpen the dowel in a pencil sharpener.  Use the sharpened end to score the lines.
