Craftzilla: Watercolor Coasters

Low-cost, colorful coasters: take a ceramic tile from plain to POW ✨with only a few inexpensive supplies! During the  Craftzilla: Watercolor Coasters event (June 13), participants experimented with a variety of blending and wash techniques.










 

2017 Bellya Summer In Review: Craftzilla - DIY Floam Slime!

Earlier this July, teens took to our large event room to science up some floam slime! It can be a tricky process: too much or too little of an element can result in a tough dough or a sticky mess.

But with careful instructions--and perhaps a little intuitive sense (*gasp* Is that...unscientific?)  (No. 😉)--you can repeat the perils and pleasures of slimemaking.

🖸🖸 📅 Eyeball future Bellya calendars for ventures into fluffy slime and other variants!

For now, peek into the floam slime laboratory (explosion included): 

A stretchy success!
