In a world full of countless screens and apps, sometimes the best thing your kid can do is get their hands dirty, literally! Not only do DIY crafts keep your little ones busy, but they also create room for them to explore their creativity and confidence while having fun.
DIY projects are not just a hobby; they let your kids create something tangible, make them feel productive, and even double as a way to craft thoughtful, personal gifts. And when equipped with Camel Poster Colours and premium art kits, there’s nothing to hold them back from making easy art projects. Let’s find out how Camel’s art supplies can bring your child’s DIY vision to life!
Handmade Cards
Why go for a bland “Happy Birthday!” on WhatsApp when you can whip up a handmade card that is so much more personal? No matter the occasion, a handmade card is more heartfelt and cheaper than store-bought ones. We recommend Camel Poster Colours, which have the most vibrant collection of shades, or the Sparkle Colours that are perfect for any celebration.
Decorative Bookmarks
If your child is a bookworm, you know the struggle of finding bookmarks that are not a scrap of thick paper that you lose faster than you are a chapter down. Instead of store-bought handmade bookmarks that can cost an arm and a leg, you can invest money in a Camel Art Studio Kit. This all-in-one pack of supplies gives one the option to pick and choose the type of art they want to add to a bookmark, be it with shaded hues using colour pencils or to get that pop of colour with our sketch pens or brush pens. Cut them into fun shapes, and they might look forward to reading just to use them!
Customised Gift Wrap
A beautifully wrapped gift takes things up a notch by adding a layer of thoughtfulness and care to your gesture. And most importantly, pretty gift wrapping paper does not have to come from a store. Be it Holi, Diwali, Eid or Christmas, you can make customised gift wraps using any kind of paper and just add that special touch to it with Camel Acrylic Markers that work on any surface. Plus, it gives your child a fun project to work on!
P.S:- Adding small motifs that go with the occasion or theme makes it more personalised.
Painted Plant Pots
Sharing a hobby with your child can be such a rewarding experience. If you are into gardening, include them in small projects like revamping your terracotta pots with Camel’s Acrylic Colours. They are multi-surface, wash-proof and permanent, which makes them perfect for easy art projects. Let your imagination go wild - your plants will thank you for the change!
Paper Lanterns
DIY-ing your home decor is the new thing! Be it festivals or a simple cosy night vibe, paper lanterns are a quick solution to switching things up. All you need is paper, scissors and some Camel Poster Colours or our Water Colours if you are a professional who knows what they are doing! Drop in a string of fairy lights or a flameless tea light, and you’ve got yourself a DIY mood-lifter for festivals, dinner parties, or just when your room needs a little magic.
Fridge Magnets
Who says you need to go on a trip to get a new fridge magnet? Skip the overpriced souvenir shops and DIY your fridge magnets. Use cardboard, clay or even bottle caps to make different shapes, and use Camel Acrylic Colours to design it the way you want.
P.S.:- Handmade fridge magnets are an incredible gift idea!
DIY Journal
Still got that ugly diary you got as a corporate present years ago sitting on your shelf collecting dust? Time to revamp it into your kids’ art or memory journal!! Our multipurpose Acrylic Colours can be used to paint the cover. To add on to that, use Fine Liner Pens to make mini designs, and there you have it, your child’s journal to doodle their day, draw comics, paste photos, or even make mood trackers!
Before We Go
DIY is not just about making cute and pretty things – it’s also about relaxing your mind, developing a skill and making time for yourself. So go ahead and clear your workspace, queue your playlist and dive into the world of arts and crafts. You’ve got everything you need and if you don’t, check out our products and find something that’s just for you!
