Are your desk drawers overflowing with half-used notebooks, leftover construction paper, and cardboard boxes from recent deliveries? Do you enjoy sketching, folding, building, or designing, but sometimes lack the right tools or a dedicated workspace? Look no further than your own school hallway. Welcome to the Scrap Craft Collective, a brand-new, student-led lunchtime club designed specifically for sixth graders who want to transform everyday scrap into functional, imaginative artwork.

Why Choose Scrap Crafting?

Many traditional craft projects require expensive specialty kits, fancy paints, or single-use plastics that end up right in the trash can. The Scrap Craft Collective takes a completely different path. We believe that some of the most versatile art supplies are already sitting right in front of us. Clean cardboard, leftover printer paper, discarded file folders, twine, and colorful magazine pages make exceptional raw materials for serious creative design.
