Mini Art journaling
Each kit comes with a mini art journal, some miscellaneous paper ephemera, stickers, colored pencil stubbies, and a pen. This should be enough to get you started, but feel free to branch out and get creative with other mediums! You can collage, draw, paint, doodle, write, and more. Pinterest is a great place to look for art journaling inspiration!

Two-Toned Heart Friendship Bracelet
Here’s a great video to get you started: https://youtu.be/VJnBhpqhbLA?si=yv9p53byWYJshHA1

Helpful tips: Keep it taut! Use tape or a clipboard. The color you start with will be the color of the inside of the heart.​

Tic-Tac-Toe on the go!
Use paint to color the stones or simply use a marker to mark ‘X’s and ‘O’s on them. If you’re feeling artistic, some designs we recommend are fruits (strawberries, blueberries, orange slices, kiwi slices, etc.), faces/emojis, animals, crowns, flowers, ladybugs/bees/beetles, stars, stripes, swirls, and dots.
​
Remember that you can use markers and pens to add details after any paint dries! And don’t forget to draw the tic-tac-toe board on the outside of the bag before you put the rocks back in it.

Origami Paper Stars

​
Wondering what to do with your origami stars? Try stringing them up and hanging them around your room! Make an ornament by filling a clear ornament ball with the paper starts. You could also write a little note on the strip of paper (like an affirmation, titles of books you want to read, movies or shows you want to watch, or anything that makes you happy) make each one into a star, and store them in a jar. Then when you want some happiness or an idea for something, take a star out and unwrap it!
