LolaLayla Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 We need some help DD has to make some items with a group of 9 year olds to sell at a Fayre. So I am looking for ideas of things that the children could be shown to make and hopefully manage to carry out with some minimal input/supervision from DD. The items also need to be good/interesting enough to be sold to their peers and parents. The crafts also have to be quite cheap. She does have some money for this project but not a huge amount. We have been searching the internet and in the library for ideas but I just know you folks will have some great ideas If you can think of anything that would be wonderful. Thanks.

Plum Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Peppermint creams and coconut ice dressed up in pretty cellophane bags and ribbons would be easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LolaLayla Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 Thanks Plum. I am not sure if she is allowed to make something edible with them but I will run that idea past her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bramble Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 How about decorated clothes pegs with a magnet on the back - these can then become fridge-magnet-clips/for tea towels or notes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LolaLayla Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 The clothes pegs sound good as you could have some more detailed than others depending on the individual child's ability Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Felt shapes tacked together with beads and a pin to make a broach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LolaLayla Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 That sounds like a possible idea too I have got a lot of felt that I could let her have for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couperwife Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 What about egg cosies? Made of felt. There would only be a bit of blanket stitch round the outside. Glue embellishments on them. Sounds fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LolaLayla Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 I will pass that one on too. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
