As I spend most of my days thinking of exciting new crafts for children and young people to do at my Makers and Creators Workshops I thought it would be great to have some downloadable craft sheets for you to do in the comfort of your own home. They are simple to follow and I try to use materials and equipment you will find easily and cheaply (using plently of recycled stuff too!!).

My first 'Mini Makes' craft sheet is available NOW, so download my step by step guide to making your very own Glass Jam Jar Lantern (as made for Earth Hour) by clicking on the Bright Ideas Lightbulb.

I hope you have lots of fun making your own lantern....I know that I did!

French Fest in Horsham was a bit of a wash out, but for those who braved the rain to make lovely French style tissue paper flowers with me I have uploaded the craft sheets to help you make a bouquet of arty crafty delights! For those who stayed in the warm and dry, why don't you download the sheets and give it a go too...
