We want to help your child focus on kindness this December by giving them an opportunity to craft with a purpose. Friendship Rings is a call to action, encouraging children to use positive words and colors to spread inspiration.
Let's inspire our children to create these rings as a heartfelt Christmas DIY gift for loved ones. A little more love can help us all connect.

With a touch of color and some positive words, wood discs can easily be transformed into unique rings.
Here's how:
1. Create colorful backgrounds using Posca markers (3mm or 5mm).
2. Allow a few minutes for the paint to dry completely, or speed up the process with a heat tool.
3. To add words to the discs, use a smooth pencil to trace the letters and then go over them with an extra fine Sharpie marker. Let it dry thoroughly.
4. Once dry, seal the surface with Triple Thick glaze.
5. Glue the discs onto the ring backs using heavy-duty E6000 glue.

To create glitter rings:
- Apply a layer of Mod Podge (MP) to the wooden circle.
- Cover the circle with glitter while the MP is still wet.
- Allow it to dry completely, then repeat the process if needed for a more intense glitter effect.
- Finish with another layer of MP to seal the glitter and protect the surface.
