Fundraiser Craft Ideas

These are the ideas I first listed with the beaded bookmarks.  I would like to explore all of these, to see which are the easiest for us to do, but also which sell best.  Please keep thinking of new ideas, as some of these will probably turn out to be Time Sinks.

Beaded bookmarks – 12 DONE.
Felt helms
   
Embroidered games – Nine Men’s Morris, Fox and Geese
   
Flower wreaths
   
Placemats with culinary images + recipes, suitable for framing – we discussed this idea in lieu of a cookbook, since cookbooks are SO much work for so little return, generally.  They could be a set of four, and we could do new ones each year and make them collectible.
   
Macrame belts and jewelry
   
Fimo-ed tokens: Refrigerator magnets?  Need some really good rubber stamps for this
   
Fimo-ed glassware – this was really clever of Deb, I’m looking forward to seeing this idea further developed.

ADDITIONS (thanks Lavena and Corduane!) – 1/21/07
Dice games imprinted onto wood blocs similar to a cribbage board – Like "A Watery Grave Or Thee", where brave Viking players roll the dice to navigate storms, fierce monsters and icebergs, loot villages, and eventually return home safely.
Felt Flags to wave, or string up as pennants.
