The DIY, A Beautiful Festival ~ ZL

This year will be the 4th Do It Yourself Festival at Beverly School! Every year there are many people who participate in the DIY Festival and there are always many different things for sale, so come check it out!

The DIY Festival at Beverly School is on May 17th this year, 2019. It will take place on the blacktop behind the school on the older kid playground. A couple crafts that students have sold in the past are handmade crayons, squishies, sock stuffed animals, notebooks, potholders, and much, much more! Some things people are doing this year are doll clothes, puddy, phone cases, slime, and a lot more things too.

The cost for the products depend on what is being sold. The usual cost range is 25 cents to 5 dollars, but it really depends on how much it cost to make the items. But, no matter what there is at the DIY Festival or how much it costs, the DIY Festival is always amazing. Everyone puts so much work into making each festival the best ever!

One if the main people responsible for the DIY is Mrs. Caza. When interviewed she said, “We spent a lot of time picking the charity partners so that they’re just right. We like them to have a tie to our community”. Every year kids who have sold things at the DIY donate some of their money to local organizations. There are two organizations kids doing the DIY can donate to. The first organization is called Brilliant Detroit and you can go to their website ( brilliantdetroit.org ) for information about them! The other organization is Paws with a Cause. You can also visit their website (pawswithacause.com ) for more information.

Just as a reminder the DIY is on May 17th, 2019. It will be amazing! Also remember, when you spend money at the DIY some of it may be going to one of the organizations above. Hope to see you there!
