TEEN CRAFTS
Pinterest Passion
Love Pinterest? Have you pinned a million crafts but haven't made any? We have the group for you! We'll tackle a popular pinned item each month. Sometimes you’ll use a needle, sometimes you’ll use a drill. No matter what we use, you walk away with an amazing DIY craft! We've made book purses, invisible book shelves, book planters, paper bead jewelry, book wreaths and much more! What can YOU make? Call Mandy to RSVP or for more info at 256-461-0046 or mpinyan [at] hmcpl [dot] org.
Sherlockian Shirts

Design and make your own Sherlock-themed t-shirt one of two ways: use fabric markers and stencils to add color to a plain white tee, or go the opposite way and lighten up a black tee with bleach pens. (You bring the shirt, we’ll supply the pens!) Sign up REQUIRED – Contact Ms Mandy at mpinyan [at] hmcpl [dot] org to sign up or for more info.
Doctor Who - Constellation Jar

While we enjoy another fabulous episode (or episodes!) of Doctor Who, we'll create a constellation jar to help guide us through the universe at our next meeting on Thursday, May 2nd @ 6pm. (You bring the jar, we’ll supply the rest!) Sign up REQUIRED – Contact Ms Maggie at mallen [at] hmcpl [dot] org to sign up or for more info.
