Craft Extravaganza Projects


But first some Housekeeping...

We MIGHT have to change our local or date due to the refinishing of the Gymansium floors the week of our activity, but we'll keep you informed.

In the meantime, you can view all of our projects below and on Sundays through October 15th in the hall by the Relief Society Room.


A couple more things before you can see the projects...


We will be providing a childcare class during the craft day. Please see our sign-up sheets in the folders to sign up your kids and to pick a spot to help watch the kiddos, too.


Please make all checks payable to our Treasurer: Lisa Withers. Payments are required a week prior to the craft day so we can have all of the supplies needed for that day. Your cooperation in this matter is GREATLY appreciated. :)


All Young Women and Primary age girls are invited, too. So make sure they see the projects, sign-up and come ready to eat and craft with the rest of us!!!

Crafting Extravaganza!

October 21st

11:00am-2:00pm Crafting and Lunch served

This is a day when we get together, make some projects, enjoy some tasty food, fellowship one another

and have fun in the process.

If you don't want to do any of these projects… bring your own along and join us anyway! We'll have a table set up just for you.

Completely tired of crafts? We will be working on baby blankets and quilts for our Humanitarian efforts. Plus, we LOVE to visit…makes the work go by faster!

The big idea behind each of our projects is that they are

1.) Affordable

2.) Very simple

3.) Make great, inexpensive gifts.

The Christmas Season will soon be here and we want to show you some nice projects that we think everyone will love making or receiving.

Sign-up lists have started and will continue until
