For the Makers May Review

This month’s For the Makers kit was called Toketee.

I looked it up on Wikipedia and found that Toketee is a Chinook Jargon word meaning “pretty” or “graceful”.

Here’s what was included:

For the Makers ToketeeThere was a necklace, earrings, tea towel, and wall pegs.

I probably had the most fun with the tea towel.  You needed to first cut out foam shapes and attach them to the ends of a cork.  I decided on a triangle pattern, a chevron type pattern, and two parallel lines.

The other painting project were these wall pegs.  I made these using blue painters tape to form the lines.

Of the two jewelry projects, I really liked the necklace and have already worn it with a red maxi dress.

Overall this was a pretty cool kit and I had fun making all of the projects.  Can’t wait to see what is in store for June!
