It's also the time of year where you find certain items have been misplaced somewhere in the house and you have no idea where the things are. Instead of searching through tons of boxes, get the sewing machine and the fabric out to create these 5 craft projects that your kids can use throughout the school year. 1 Makeup BagTrying to dig out the lip balm wedged between the school binder and the pencil set is annoying for teenagers.

Found at Sparkles of SunshineOne of the most annoying things they will have to deal with is losing their place in the book because it was accidentally closed when they went to get a drink of water, or the pages keep flipping on their own while the book is open. You can make these simple ribbon bookmarks so they can keep the pages in place and get their homework completed in time. 5 Laptop/Tablet BagLaptops and tablets are becoming a necessary school item for kids. Kindergartners are using apps on tablets during classes to learn their letters and numbers while teens are using laptops to perform research during study hall. This laptop bag craft can keep their devices safe inside book bags so the surface doesn't get scratched up and stained by the edges of book covers, pencil points and leaky pens. Found at The Tip Toe FairyThe laptop bag can also easily hold tablet devices and their smart phones so they won't forget the items on their desk in a different classroom. When making back-to-school sewing crafts, obtain some input from the kids on what they need. You might find out that they want other items that can be easily sewn on your sewing machine, like pencil holders or smartphone cord holders. You can even teach your children how to sew these things they need. 😉Also be aware about the amount of space that they have in their backpack. You will want to give them items that can fit inside without taking up too much room or making the backpack too heavy to carry as they also have to lug their schoolbooks and binders around.
