Hi Simply Kelly Designs readers! My name is Stacey and I’m stealing Kelly’s blog for the day. I’m super excited to be here and hope we all become friends soon. But first – let me tell you more about myself and my blog.

I blog over at Glued To My Crafts and it’s essentially my craft diary. Like the blog name states – I’m a craft addict. Nine times out of ten – you will find my dining room table covered in craft supplies and my head overflowing with ideas. I aspire to one day own my own craft store and studio {a girl can dream!}.

Although I like to be referred to as “the crafty girl” that’s not my only title. I’m also a proud Air Force wife and a mother to a preschooler who keeps me on my toes {and inspires a lot of my posts!} Currently we are in the process of moving overseas to England with the military and I’m super excited about the new adventure ahead of us!

But let’s get to the real reason why I’m here today. Kelly has asked me to round up ALL my summer themed kid crafts and share them with you. I know first hand that kids can get the boredom blues this time of year with school being out so I hope this Summer Kid Craft Roundup inspires some crafty time with your child today! Happy crafting my friends!

The perfect patriotic kid craft for 4th of July celebrations – Popsicle Stick Flags {Kid Craft}

Another patriotic themed kid craft that is sure to be a hit – Popsicle Stick Uncle Sam Kid Craft}

I just love handprint artwork & this is a great summer keepsake – Ice Cream Handprint Keepsake

Inspired by our favorite fruit, this is a fun summer craft – Paper Plate Pineapple

Colorful and super simple for kids of all ages – Clay Rainbow Fish {Kid Craft}

Watermelon seems to be a staple this time of year & this kid craft is perfect to do in honor – Paper Plate Watermelon {Kid Craft}

And don’t think the fun stops with summer kid crafts – if you are looking for even more craft inspiration, I also share Free Printables, tons of Kid Crafts, Recipes, Busy Bag Ideas and DIY Adult Crafts on my blog too. AND if you want a look into my life outside the crafts – check out the Military Life tab for a sneak peek on what it’s like to be a military family and our upcoming adventures in England. You can also find me on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram. And like I always end my posts – I hope we inspire you!!!
