Craft Swap and Create Day

This is actually a craft swap mixed with a craft project. The craft swap idea is great. You can bring craft supplies you don't plan on using and then exchange them for things you have more interest in. The more people that attend, the more selection you'll have to trade for. Combined with the craft swap, they'll have a crafting station for people to create a "summer reading masterpiece". If you participate, you'll have the option to take your creation home or leave it at the library for display.
