Trying out some new ideas with my cricut cutting machine. These are some farm animals cut out of light cardstock sitting on construction paper. What is your favourite project on the cricut if you have one?

Fun activity ingredients : - contact paper - tissue paper for gift bags Cut or rip tissue paper (bonus give the kids some safe scissors and let them do the work), and cut contact paper into shapes (in the photo is an egg shape with a hole for hanging, punched with a regular hole punch).... Pull the shiny side off the contact paper and have the kids stick the tissue paper to the sticky shapes. If you want to hang it directly in the window, like a big sticker, just don't fill in the whole shape. Stick it to the window and you are done. Fun easy activity that goes beyond Easter - cut stars or animals and have the kids go crazy. Bonus points if they make a pattern or a picture with the colourful tissue paper. The second photo was created by my 4 year old and stuck to our back window. Happy crafting!! #bobcaygeon #kidcrafts

Spring is here and with it comes bugs and butterflies and little crawlies to explore. I am a vendor at the Bobcaygeon Farmers Market this spring and I am working on some bug discovery and identification kits I'll have at my booth.

It's Meet the Maker Monday. Hi I'm Jocelynn from the Kawartha Craft Co. I had a milestone birthday last week and wanted to celebrate by meeting some alpacas! So, I took my family to @wanderlight_alpaca Wanderlight Alpaca Experience in Lakefield, ON. It was the best time. Turns out alpacas get a little snuggly once they get to know you!... So I wanted to pop on Instagram and say hi and shout out Wanderlight Alpaca Experience. #KawarthaLakes #wanderlightalpacaexperience #ptboshoplocal #ptbomakers #kawarthamakers

Just working on some new kit ideas to get kids interested in needle felting animals. They start with a soft fluff of wool and with their own two hands they create something magical that is all their own. #kidcrafts ... #ptbomakers #kawarthamakers #bobcaygeon See more

Sometimes preparing craft supplies feels like creating. Do you know what I mean? #ptbomakers #bobcaygeon #kawarthamakers
