One of the most therapeutic {and messy} things we all do as moms with our kids is craft. Now, I'm not talking your run-of-the-mill Saturday night scrapfest or knit-a-thon, but your everyday craft "projects" {as my kids call them} that are complete with glue and paint and other random stuff you've managed to salvage…
