My name is Jenny, and

So I thought I ought to set up a website to share my crafts, since I have benefited in the past from other people's ideas that I have found on the web. The crafts are listed by category (the list is below). They'll be in roughly chronological order with the craft name, Biblical text, and memory verse (when applicable). All are downloadable as PDF files and have directions, a supplies list, helpful notes, and a picture of the completed craft.
Please feel free to use these however you want - at church, in newsletters, etc. - I just want them to be useful for teaching kids however and wherever! |
What's On Here:
You can use the links below or the menu at the top of the page. The top of the page might not list every craft if there are too many in a section.
