Origami has been one of my hobbies since I was 8 years old. Many Origami Patterns start with an Origami Base: a folded form that starts a piece. This is one such base. You can find more Origami Base Tutorials for here: https://jessieathome.com/category/crafts/origami/origami-base/
I tried out the Art Bin Craft Caddy to help my organization, and I’m very happy with it. I was able to take the various items that usually clutter the table next to my crochet/knit spot and fit them all into the caddy in a neat fashion.

I bought this Magnetic Mini Tile Art kit for the girls. They each made 5 tiles for Christmas presents. I found the kit for about $11 on Amazon, so it was really a great deal! We really liked that the girls could design their own tiles to make them personalized.
The kit comes with 10 tiles, a magnet sheet with 10 pre-cut sticky-back squares to go on the back of the magnets, 6 colors of paint, and a paint brush. All you need to provide yourself is a pencil.

I had so much fun making my Diamond Dotz canvas that I was sure these would be craft kits kids would like too. Turns out I was right, Diamond Dotz are a big hit with the girls. I wasn’t sure if their attention span would last, but Kyla and Vada found it so fun that they finished them in a couple of days. There are also some smaller kits that can be done in one sitting if you don’t have the time or the space for a larger/longer project. So if you are looking for craft kits kids would like, look no further than Diamond Dotz!
