Here's to a peaceful, fun, and happy time on the road for all!

Sparkle Craft: Simple Brushbot

This week's craft, a tiny toothbrush robot, would be perfect for a rainy summer day.

Whether you have a proper May Day Fair or just celebrate the first of May by making a point to get outside and enjoy some sunshine, these May ribbon wands will add a lovely bit of whimsy to your day.

Sparkle Craft: Soda Bottle Rocket
