Craft Project Videos - FREE & SHAREABLE!
My pre-recorded craft project videos teach kids (ages 5-11) how to transform recyclables into cool crafts.
In these videos, while we were all stuck at home due to the pandemic, I used everyday stuff from around the house like paper grocery bags, aluminum cans, coffee filters, cereal boxes, paper towel rolls, paper plates, etc. Subscribe to my ArtzHub NC YouTube Channel to see all of these videos in one place and to stay up to date with new releases!
“Your craft videos have given us unexpected family time. I color and glue right along with my kids. It keeps me in the moment, and a little creativity unlocks my brain. Great for stress! Thanks! ”
