Butterflies are gorgeous. But in our long Wyoming winters, we only get to have them around for a few months. But no longer! Here we will teach you how to craft butterfly decor for your home out of vinyl records. It is really easy and it is eco-responsible because we will upcycle records that were otherwise destined for a landfill. You can keep the recycled record look or you can paint these butterflies with spray paint to add a bit of elegance to any room. Be sure to pick up your craft kit at the Star Valley Branch Library on June 23rd, 2021.

March 2021
Welcome to our March Happy Crafternoon. The theme for March at the Star Valley Branch Library is to "Go Green." We wanted to provide fun and useful activities that would involve reducing, reusing, and recycling. For this craft, no new products were purchased and many items were recycled from previous craft projects. We hope you enjoy making these cell phone stands and find them useful.
