<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Laser Cut Acrylic Crafts</strong></h2>
<p>One of the biggest DIY trends right now is using laser cutters and engravers on <a href="https://www.cohnacrylics.com/collections/acrylic-sheets">acrylic sheets</a>. It’s such a versatile material that allows you to create all kinds of modern, personalized crafts.</p>
<p>For a craft night, you could make custom acrylic coasters, signs, jewelry dishes and more. Simply pick some fun designs or text, then use a laser cutter to etch them onto colored acrylic sheets.</p>
<p>Sites like Etsy have a huge selection of pre-cut acrylic sheets and shapes you can engrave.</p>
<p>The possibilities are endless – from monogrammed coasters and ring dishes to custom wall signs and even acrylic jewelry. It’s an easy way to make trendy, personalized pieces.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Acrylic Coaster Ideas</strong></h3>
<p>Coasters are one of the easiest acrylic crafts to start with. You can find pre-cut acrylic coaster blanks, then use a laser to etch custom designs, monograms, funny sayings or patterns.</p>
<p>These mountain scene coasters from The Navage Patch are such a vibe. Or you could do a set with each friend’s name or initial for a personal touch.</p>
<p>Add some adhesive cork backing and you’ve got a unique, reusable coaster set to proudly display.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Acrylic Wall Art and Signs</strong></h3>

<p>You could also make fun wall art like this rainbow acrylic piece from Lovely Indeed. It’s a great way to use up acrylic scraps and get abstract with the designs.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Resin Crafting</strong></h2>
<p>Another hot craft right now is resin – that ultra glossy, smooth pour-able material. And it makes for such a fun craft night!</p>
<p>You can find resin crafting kits for things like coasters, trays, jewelry dishes and more. Then you and your friends can get creative adding dried flowers, glitter, objects and more to personalize your pieces.</p>
<p>The best part about resin crafts is that they look so professional and expensive when done, but they’re actually pretty simple. Just be sure to work in a ventilated area and let them fully cure!</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Resin Jewelry Dishes</strong></h3>
<p>Resin jewelry dishes are all the rage right now and make for such a fun craft. You just need some silicone molds.</p>
<p>Then you can get creative adding dried flowers, glitter, shells, or other embellishments to the resin before pouring it into the molds.</p>
<p>Once cured, you have a beautiful, personalized dish for holding rings, earrings, and other small accessories. They also make great gifts.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Resin Coasters and Trays</strong></h3>
<p>Resin coasters and trays are another awesome craft night project. You can find inexpensive silicone mold sets for coasters and trays, then let your creativity run wild with the resin.</p>
<p>These ocean-inspired resin coasters from Lovely Greens would be so cool to recreate as a group. Or you could do a set with everyone’s birthstones or fave colors.</p>
<p>For trays, these pressed flower ones from Delineate Your Dwelling are absolutely stunning. Imagine making a whole set together with different flower varieties!</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Cement and Clay Crafts</strong></h2>
<p>For a unique, hands-on craft night, you could also go the cement or clay route. Making your own modern cement planters, dishes, vases and more is surprisingly easy.</p>
<p>Air dry clay is another fun option to get creative with. You can find affordable clay craft kits to make things like hanging planters, ring dishes, and even chic candleholders.</p>
<p>These cement and clay crafts have such a cool, minimalist look when done. And there’s something so satisfying about working with those materials as a group.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Cement Planter Ideas</strong></h3>
<p>Cement planters are all the rage in modern home decor. And they’re so simple to make using just some cement mix and silicone molds or containers.</p>
<p>The best part is you can make cement planters in any size, shape or color. So each friend can put their own spin on their creations.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Personalized Gift Crafting</strong></h2>
<p>Of course, no craft night would be complete without making some personalized gifts! Get creative with custom pieces like:</p>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Etched glass mugs or vases using adhesive vinyl stencils</li>
<li>Monogrammed tote bags using puffy paint, stamps or iron-on vinyl</li>
<li>Poured wax or soy candles with dried flowers, essential oils, etc.</li>

<p>Etched glass mugs from Lemon Thistle would be perfect for a Galentine’s Day craft night. Or etch some vases with fun patterns or words to give as gifts.</p>
<p>You can find affordable etching cream kits on Amazon, then just use adhesive vinyl stencils to create your designs before applying the etching cream. So easy!</p>

<p>Tote bags are another great blank canvas for personalized crafting. You can use puffy paint, stamps, stencils or even iron-on vinyl to customize them.</p>
<p>Stamped canvas totes from Lovely Indeed would be so fun to recreate together. Or try making a set of monogrammed bags using iron-on vinyl and a Cricut machine.</p>
