From Trash to Ocean Treasure

This summer will be my first Music & Bible camp, a week-long camp run by our Church that combines group music activities (everything from strings, to drums, to choral) and VBS. And surprise surprise! I volunteered to help out with the craft station! I was also lucky enough to get paired up with Alli, the designer and owner of Quilled Creations. It’s like working with a craft celebrity. Pretty awesome :) (You can visit her blog here for tutorials and giveaways.)

I was tasked to create hanging CD-ROM fishes as decoration for our room, and after doing a quick google search, couldn’t find anything I really liked to model after. So I created my own. And since I’m at it, I’ll share my version of CD-ROM fishes:

Enjoy!
