The envelope, please.... Once again, it's time for the year's most eagerly awaited awards ceremony. But you can forget about the tuxedos and the glittering hairdos-- this is more of a roll-up-your-sleeves-and-tie-on-a-smock affair. Yes, it's the third annual FAMILYFUN magazine Craft Contest!
To get here, the editors scrutinized hundreds of entries in four categories--Recycled Crafts, General Crafts, Masks, and Drawing & Painting--looking for creative and inclusive ideas that could inspire families to spend a weekend afternoon together. And so, without further ado, here are this year's prizewinning projects:
Grand Prize Winner: Hopscotch Game
Customize stepping-stones for a fun twist on the classic game
Winner, Recycled Crafts: Safari Miniature Golf Set
Transform would-be trash into a jungle-themed putt-putt course
Winner, General Crafts: Little Red Riding Hood Marionettes
Tell fairy-tales with miniature puppets and a tiny box theater
Winner, Masks: Animal Masks

Winner, Drawing and Painting: Family Tree
