Back in May, we held a May the 4th Be With You Craft Day to celebrate pop culture and Star Wars. We had a pretty good turn out. The above image shows the three crafts we prepared. Below, one of my favourite books this year, Rod Duncan's super cool The Bullet-Catcher's Daughter, is being bookmarked by a cute, felt Chewbacca bookmark.

Wish I had taken some photos of the ones the kids made, but alas! I think I forgot my camera then...
Happy crafting!
