Mr. Mouse went on a golf outting and left 3 little mice and I to fed for ourselves. We decided to do some crafting! If you would like to craft along, you will need:
Paper plates
Scissors
Glue sticks or liquid glue/ paint brushes
Tape
Crayons/ markers/ paint
Stickers
Coins
String or dental floss
Tissue paper/ guide maps/ any paper you can find, ripped into little bits
The great thing is that you can bring everything on this list along in your carry on bag! Just make sure your glue isn’t moe than 3.4 oz and your scissors are less than 4″ from the pivot point. But, to be sure, double check everything prior to packing on the TSA website.
