Creative Fusion Craft Studio adds beauty to the world. Under the guidance of camp director and Springside English teacher Gretel DeRuiter, girls enrolled in Creative Fusion Craft Studio at Springside School this summer used fabric, tile, paint, paper, wood, dyes, wax, beads, and objects found in nature to make an array of beautiful crafts. Each week of the three-week summer camp focused on a different set of projects, and every introduction of new supplies and endeavors was met with exclamations like “Cool!” and “Ooh, awesome!” from the girls. Crazy-quilt pillows, jewelry, block prints, painted wooden objects, mosaics, collages, hand-made books of poetry, batik, and tie-dye designs were among the projects they took home. Some girls even left whimsically creative fairy houses behind in the Wissahickon woods. Pictured is Barclay Wohlstetter of Chestnut Hill displaying jewelry she made.
