I've been doing some fall organizing of late and a couple of areas have gotten a bit of an overhaul. Starting with shuffling some things around in the kitchen and my little work space and restockintg our work and craft areas.
Now I can get some work done and occupy the kiddos with all of the necessities needed to take advantage of those flowing creative juices. A well stocked crafting kit with everything in one place. Some items I already had and just needed corralling and the rest I scooped up at Target and IKEA. All set for weekend fun, after school crafts, impromptu playdates (or any other emergency scenario) tucked in a couple of upholstered bins I picked up at the TJMaxx.
Perfectly Stocked Kids Craft Kit

1. Pipe Cleaners from Dollar Tree or pick some up at the dollar spot at the Target.
2. Paint Brushes
3. Beads or these oh and alphabet beads too.
4. Glue: Glue Sticks Liquid Glue
5. Assorted Paper: Water Color , Colored Construction, Kraft Paper Roll (my all time favorite).
6. Markers

As I diligently move towards completing the play room I just thought the other day that I need to make a list of just supplies that they need down there so when it gets cold and they want to craft they have everything they need. I have most of this list but I would like to stock up on paint. Going to wait for a sale at Michael's and go crazy!
