By day, Jessica VanBuren is a mild-mannered sales rep for Eerdmans.
By night (and sometimes also by day), she’s a crafting maven.
Jessica’s also not a person to do anything halfway. Launching her brand-new crafting column here on Eerdlings off with a BOOM, she’s put together a series of forty inspiring crafts — one for each of the forty days in Lent.
You’ll find links to the first twenty crafts here today, along with step-by-step instructions, detailed photos, scriptural tie-ins, and suggested reading. The remaining twenty crafts will follow in early March.
Print, personalize, and color this calendar/game board to plan and track your Lenten crafts and other family activities.
