Do you know what happens when your girl grows up and you're left with boys?
You lose your crafty-gene. Or maybe you don't "lose" it; it just slowly atrophies. Because boys? Generally don't do crafts.
So me running Cub Scouts is a challenge because I want to have a craft project for every meeting, yet I know better. Unless you can find a non-girly craft.
Gnomes!!!
We needed to do a garden-type meeting and since gnomes are primarily male (it's true, go look it up, I don't make this stuff up), I thought we'd give it a try. But guess what? If you Google "gnome crafts" or "make your own gnome," you get nothing. Okay, you get fabric, crochet crafts. But none for the actual garden where gnomes are supposed to reside (seriously peoples, a crochet gnome to sit next to your bedside? have any idea how unhappy that gnome is?). So I had to rejuvenate my crafty gene.
Ta-da! Easter egg gnomes!!! I'm kind of proud of them.
