Have you done any crafts Karen has done in the Little Sister series? Which one (s), when and did you enjoy them? Do you still enjoy them or do them?

I didn't vote because apparently you can only vote for one thing. I've done a few. In school I made a board game, various valentine boxes, and a gift certificate (actually one of those coupon book things, for Mother's Day). At home I tried making a glittery pine cone tree ornament from the back of Karen's Wish. (It looked poopy.) And a few years ago I decided I wanted to learn how to knit and made a few scarves.
For all the extraordinary events that went on in Karen's life, she still did very normal activities.

I've done a lot of these! At school we made those pine cone ornaments, and pencil cups, valentine holders, paper flowers, etc. I vaguely remember doing something mosaic-y too. My sister and I would make board games and doll clothes, she would mostly design and sew the clothes, she even made things like purses and hats. She made one of her barbies a mini backpack purse in denim when those were popular I loved reading about Karen, Hannie, and Nancy making that cardboard dollhouse for the Doll Sisters in summer, I did the same type of thing during vacation. I always wanted to try potato print paper, and pottery. Oh and of course learned how to make friendship bracelets from LS!

Sounds exciting! I made pinecone ornaments too, but voluntarily with my own glitter paints, and when I was a few years older than Karen and going through a crafty phase though I suck at art.
I had a friendship bracelet making book too and would try different designs
I made pencil cups and paper flowers too on my own after seeing them made on tv shows for kids.

I'm pretty sure I've made baby accessories (mobiles) when I was in school but I don't remember what the mobiles were.
