Project Name: Clothespin doll 1

Brief Description: August Arts & Crafts Club. They are racing drivers. I made the helmets out of little capsule machine capsules. I’m saying rainy days because rain makes races more chaotic and exciting.

I finally had a chance to dig through my old Nerd Games files, and yes! That certificate is from the first CYOA - A Hero’s Journey - in Summer 2017. I also found the map of Craftopia made by @Smeddley !
You and your faithful companion, Nerdly the Fox, are sitting outside a pub in Craftopia, enjoying a lovely cup of tea and some exquisite biscuits – you really must ask the cook for their secret! – when you are suddenly approached by two strangers. One is a wizened old crone, the other is a young boy. They both say they must speak to you urgently, they have a problem only you, the legendary adventurer, can help resolve.

Prompt: Free Range #2 Team: Cabin Finger Painters Project Name: Blueberry lemon crepe Project Link:Lemon Blueberry crepe Brief Description: I made crepes!! I have been seriously intimidated by crepes, since, always, but I LOOOOVE to eat them. So I’m pretty pleased that they turned out so well! This particular crepe made its way to my plate with lemon Zoi Greek yogurt (if you’ve never had this, do yourself a favor- I think it’s AMAZING- and I normally loathe Greek yogurt) and fresh blueberries. The crepe holds it all in, kind of like a FOOD BUCKET. Project Photo(s):
Prompt: August Camp Friends Team: Cabin Trailblazers Project Name: Mini windows Project Link: - Brief Description: It’s the start of school, which means heading back indoors after outdoor summer fun. I made these two mini windows for my husband (also a teacher) to hang in his classroom to keep a peak outside. They are transparent vinyl (art already there) behind a wooden frame. Hard to keep them a secret while making so they’d stay a surprise!

Blurred because I don’t know if it’s been received or not.
Well, August was a bit of a bust, camp-wise. Most activities were cancelled or postponed due to severe weather conditions and RL-conditions. Once my brain reforms from the melted puddle that it became, I will try to figure out what I did get done, because I know all sorts of craft things did happen.
I did get to spend a few days at Camp Grandma and Grandpa (my husband’s parents), where all kids are welcome, no matter their age or their location in the family tree. There were adult children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, coming and going at various portions of “Camp”. A great time was had by all.
Prompt: August Battle - Summer Sun Team: Cabin Stargazers Project Name: Neuro-zen doodle Project Link: Brief Description:
I made this using the random markers, pencils and crayons that my MIL had set out, along with other craft supplies, on the big dining table. Worked on it on and off, while helping the kids with their own crafts or chatting with the older family members. I chose summer sun, as this was crafted while it was too hot to go outside.
