Hi, fellow campers!

One of the things most people remember about summer camp is the crafts.  At all the camps I went to, crafts were a required part of the experience.  They were a chance for campers to express their creativity.

Just like this Crafty Campers Challenge!

Write a story, drabble, poem, or what you please in which Wilson injures himself doing some sort of summer-camp craft.  To help you out, I've listed the camp crafts I can remember being asked to do when I was a kid -- you can use one of those, or one from your own memories of camping days gone by.  And, of course, you'll need to account for why Wilson is doing this at all -- maybe he took a part-time job as a camp counselor to help pay for the road trip! 

But however he got there, and whyever he's doing it, he got himself hurt.  How did it happen?  That's up to you!

Here are the crafts I remember (and I'm probably showing my age!):

Braiding friendship bracelets or lanyard key chains
Making snake-coil style clay bowls and pots
Painting on pieces of slate
Wrapping yarn around sticks to make an ojo de Dios
Painting bricks (or smooth rocks) to make door stops or garden decorations
Pouring plaster of Paris into paper plates and then using leaves or flowers to make artistic "impressions"
Making "nature collages" by gluing leaves, flowers, and so forth onto pieces of bark
Using a nail and a rock to punch holes in a tin can to make a "candle lantern"

Macramé! Oh, god, the macramé!  Belts, potted plant hangers, "tapestries" . . .
Making popsicle stick "looms" and then "weaving" potholders
"Finger Knitting" -- wrapping yarn around our fingers to create long strings of loops
Dipping strings into melted wax to make candles
Melting crayons of many colors and then dripping the wax on soda bottles to make "vases"

Origami -- folding all kinds of critters out of paper
Making creatures out of paper plates

Making creatures out of regular and miniature marshmallows and toothpicks
Making "mosaics" by gluing colored grains of rice to cardboard


Okay, I'll stop now, the memories are starting to horrify me!  Feel free to use them to horrify Wilson, too.

maybe I can get a better look at your pretty body?
