…we’re making CRAFTS!
January and February were very creative months for Cumberland County teens.
Nuts, bolts, washers, cotter pins, and beads were cobbled together into hardware jewelry. One teen even figured out how to make a pop tab bracelet just from looking at a picture (no instructions needed - yay, Patrick!).
Mass quantities of duct tape were turned into oh-so-beautiful roses by more than 57 teens at the Bordeaux, Hope Mills, and East Regional Branches:
The directions that we used for the roses can be found here.
