I'm going to show you how to make Velcro Bullseye Game Rings. The ring is made with felt and when you throw a small little Velcro ball at it the ball actually sticks. The craft is a fun one.... almost as much fun as it is to wear this adorable ring. This ring craft would be an awesome craft to make party favors for a birthday party. Imagine the excitement of the kids attending the party when they see they get Velcro Bullseye Game Rings to take home with them. They'd love it!!]]> http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2012/02/how-to-make-velcro-bullseye-game-rings/feed/ 0 http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2011/12/how-to-make-a-clothespin-penguin-ornament/ http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2011/12/how-to-make-a-clothespin-penguin-ornament/#comments Mon, 19 Dec 2011 14:00:53 +0000 Shana http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/?p=10216 I have a fun craft for you today.
