There’s no doubt it’s fun to get together with friends and family and catch up on one another’s lives during the holidays. But let’s be honest. There’s only so much to talk over before some members of the group — we’re looking at the young ones — are likely to surreptitiously drift away or resort to phone-scrolling. When the oldies’ conversation inevitably turns to their glory days or, worse yet, becomes contentious, you’re going to need an off-ramp. Having something to keep everyone occupied and engaged offers the chance to not only enjoy casual chatter and laughs together, but also creates a tangible keepsake of the day. And you never know, the little project might someday become a “glory day” reminiscence for one of the young crafters at the table.
We enlisted two Spokane DIYers to come up with fun, just-challenging-enough crafts to create a fun and inexpensive crafty holiday event.
