I have such a sweet and easy craft to share with you today. All ages will love this one.

Silver, shimmery holiday napkin rings made with a paper towel and aluminum foil. Of course, you can decorate yours however you'd like, but we've used gems and sequins for extra shine and shimmer.

You have to see how pretty they are!

Today's craft is easy, easy, easy, and it's fun for all ages of kids.

Grab some aluminum foil and some Sharpies so the kids can make these these vibrant, iridescent "Christmas balls" to hang on the Christmas tree.

TIP: If you don't have CD's, cut circles out of cardboard!

Lots of sensory fun here with the slick feeling of Sharpies on foil, and scrunching and crunching the foil.

I have the most beautiful tissue paper stained glass project to share with you today.

I don't know about your kids, but my hooligans LOVE using Sharpie markers.

We have a huge collection of them, with every colour in the rainbow, so I love to come up with really creative ways for us to use them.

We've ton a ton of cool Sharpie projects over the years, so I thought I'd put them all together for you here in one spot.

You'll find ideas for toddlers and preschoolers as well as projects for older kids.

I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

Let me guess. You’re up to your elbows in *Monday*, trying to catch your breath after a whirl-wind weekend, and the kids are asking to make Valentines crafts.

The last thing you feel like doing is hauling out all the craft supplies, and dealing with the craft-tastrophe clean- up afterwards, right? If they’re crafting today, it’s gotta be low-maintenance, no-mess and something that doesn’t require a ton of effort and prep.

Relax. We’ve got you covered.

Today we’re going to show you the easiest Valentines craft ever. We’re making super-simple (but charming) Valentines hearts with Sharpies and photo paper.

Your kids can tuck these colourful and adorable hearts into a card or letter for parent or grandparent or even a teacher or friend.

This one is fun, it's vibrant, and it's a little bit addictive, which means....

It could just keep the kids busy for a good, long while today.

I know the feeling. Your kids want to craft but you don't want to get all the craft stuff out, and be left with a big mess.

It's probably one of the reasons for saying "no" when they ask to craft, right?

I get it. We moms are busy, and there are enough messes to clean up in a day, never mind the chaos that can come along with craft time.

Well, how would you feel if I told you your kids could have a ton of fun crafting today with about a minute of prep and virtually no clean up.

Got tin foil? Got Sharpies? Great. You're all set for your kids to make some cool Valentines art.

It's slick and shimmery, and the process is really fun.

It's also kind of addictive, so it may just keep the troops entertained for a while.

A win for the kids and a win for you!

I know, I know. Yesterday, I said our gorgeous leaf sun catcher would be our last Fall craft for the season, and that we were ready to shift into Christmas craft mode.

Well, sadly, my crafty brain doesn't switch gears quite as quickly as I'd like it to, and I still have Fall on my mind.

Check out this shimmering, vibrant Fall leaf mobile! It was super-easy to make, using things we already had in and around the house.

Kids of all ages will love it because the process is really creative and fun!
