Now that the sun is shining, it's time to think summer. Paracord projects are especially popular during the warmest months of the year. Because it's made out of durable nylon, paracord is the perfect material for active kids who love outdoor activities like hiking and camping. New and Creative Paracord Crafts is full of tutorials for jewelry, key fobs, water bottle totes and so much more.
Every project in New and Creative Paracord Crafts includes a shopping list with all of the materials needed to make the project. This list, along with the full-color illustrations and step by step instructions, makes crafting a snap. Children will master knotting techniques and learn the basics of beading as they whip up the projects in this collection. Whether they are crafting for themselves or their friends, there is a project for everyone:
- Para Bling Bracelet – Rhinestones, alphabet beads, it's all fair game!
- Loops and Bars Bracelet
- Para-People figures
- Beaded Single Strand Bracelet Easy to Personalize
- Bottle Holder
- Rhinestones and Paracord Bracelet
- Support Ribbons (available in 2 sizes)
- Para-Bead Jewelry
Teach your children the value of charity by making support ribbons as a family. Hand out the ribbons at local fundraisers and events to raise awareness about a cause that's close to your heart. Help your child put together a bottle holder that she can wear on her shoulder for long hikes, or spend an afternoon creating Para-People that can be clipped to her backpack or lunch box. All of the projects in New and Creative Paracord Crafts can be modified to suit each crafter's personal style, so grab some paracord in your favorite color and get started before the summer slips away.
