Our Church went to KY to do a mission trip. While there they were teaching a VBS program. From last year we knew the church there liked to do a "wood" craft. So I was scouring the internet and someone came up with the idea of Stacked crosses. (Last year we did the clothespin cross which was a big hit.)
Anyway, they asked me to make the crosses and were going to have the people paint them. The back cross is 3/4" and the front is 1/2" thick.
I used blue tape where the crosses would be glued together. We also used 1 " Staples to hold them.
These are the ones completed at the VBS. They were a big hit and everyone enjoyed making them.
We used a picture mount on the back, so they could be hung on a wall.
My main reason for posting is to maybe give someone else an idea for a VBS project. I could not find many ideas that would span a large age group and not be very time consuming.
We are looking at going back next year again. So if you have any ideas of possible crafts that would be easy for a large group of various ages let me know.
Hope you like.
Chris
