We love being creative with ordinary objects. Live wildly in a crafty world, we know anything that we are going to discard has the potential to be perfect materials for our next project. Today we’re getting crafty with our drinking straws. Drinking straws do not only have to be used for drinking. Drinking straws make good supplies for craft projects.
