Midnight Madness Craft Planning

Here are some ideas we were thinking about for our Midnight Madness being held Friday November 4th.  There are bigger pictures and links to the activities below the poll.  Please feel free to add your own ideas as well.  Also when voting consider time and cost.  I am allowing you to vote for 4 projects so take the time and consider which projects you will truly do.  We are looking to narrow it down to 7 projects.

I had to reset the votes because it only allows you to vote one time.  So click all of your votes then submit, you will not be able to vote again.  I apologize for the confusion.

Menu Board
    http://www.domessticated.com/2010/11/magnetic-menu-board-my-dos-donts.html this one could be pricey maybe $20-25, (Frame, Magnetic paint paper, magnets for menu items)  Some one suggested it be used for an activity/clanedar planner, so if meal planning is not your thing, there maybe other uses!

Temple/Clock picture board could be as much as $40 we are trying to work out some copyright isuues that would make it cheaper.

Countdown Blocks-can make it for Birthday and Christmas? $11 includes paper and glue.

Simple Nativity
http://learning-to-b-me.blogspot.com/2010/08/flags-and-more-wood.html scroll down to nativity.  Maybe $5.00

Wreath
http://teachcraftlove.blogspot.com/2010/06/front-door-wreaths_22.html with 1 letter we can probably do it for $15) We can either do fabric flowers or Silk flowers

Christbook
http://www.sewdangcutecrafts.com/2010/12/christ-book.html This is a great family gift for parents to children.  It is a countdown/study to Christmas.  I am thinking it could be about $15.  (It includes a binder, 40 page protectors, a song, story, picture and scripture for 17 themes (the entire picture packets for the primary manuals 1 and 2, some of which will be used for the binder the rest can be put in a FHE file or something)

Headbands-simple sewing project (must bring sewing machine)
$2.00 or have them buy their own supplies, thread, fabric and elastic. http://www.happytogethercreates.com/2011/07/double-sided-fabric-headband-pattern.html

Class one of the following
  • pie making-crust? Then we can bake them and serve for dessert that evening.
  • Gifts in a Jar
  • Truffle Making, serve them for dessert for the evening
Any additional thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
