DIY Slumber Party Crafts

DIY Slumber Party Crafts for The World’s Largest Slumber Party hosted by Girls With Dreams on Saturday November 14, 8pm-10pm CST

TIE BLANKET
Fabric scissors
4 yards of felt (2 of a solid color, 2 of a pattern)
Arrange the solid and the pattern on top of each other. Cut squares in the corners and slits into the blanket. Then, tie the bottom strip with the top one. Do that all the way around the blanket.

CUSTOMIZE YOUR SWEATS
Sweats (old or new)
Fabric scissors
Fabric paint (puffy, glitter, etc.)
Embellishments
Beads
Needle and Thread
Use scissors to alter the sweats however you like. Decorate sweats with beading and paint. For example, commemorate your event with a “Slumber Party 2009” theme.

CARDBOARD FRAME
cardboard box (thick cardboard works best, but any will do)
Scraps of Fabric (even old t-shirts work well)
Magazine Clippings, Embellishments and Puffy Paint
Hot Glue Gun and Decoupage Glue
Scissors
Cut two of the same shape out of cardboard, one for the back of the frame and one for the front. Cut a window out of the front for your picture. Decorate the front with whatever you like. Tape photo to the inside of the frame (facing out) and glue the back of the frame to the front of the frame.

JEWELRY
Beads
Old Jewelry (recycle the beads of pieces you no longer wear)
Elastic String
Arrange the beads in a pattern you like. Run the string through each bead in the pattern you’ve picked. Fasten the piece by tying the string in a double-knot.
