A Fun Kids Beginner Weaving Project Using Recycled Straws!

We don't buy plastic straws, but we still have some in the house. Rather than throw them out (they can't be recycled) we try to find other uses for them. In this week's The Week Junior, I share a fun and easy weaving project, using straws as a loom. (You can also use paper straws!). I learned how to do this way back when I was a kid, from my Do a Zoom Do book. (Does anyone else have that? Remember Zoom?)

You can download these directions here. I hope you’ll give it a try!

And, if you like to use recycled materials, check out my new e-book, Toilet Tube Treasury, a crafty e-book/love letter to my favorite craft material! xo
