Weekend Art: Happy Heart
I am trying to enjoy doing more crafty things with my children. I enjoy creating art. They enjoy creating art. It is a version of primal handicraft that we all like. We just don't always make the time to do it together. Last weekend, I was determined to paint while they painted. It was theraputic until 2 of the 3 ended up in tears because I made the error of doing it right before nap/quiet time. But I'm still glad we did it. I let them paint whatever they wanted. Here's what I made.
I used the same materials as my children: crayola washable kids' paint, q-tips, and paper. When it had dried, I cut it out and glued it to the solid side of a brown paper bag. I put it in a painted wooden frame, minus the glass. I am not a big Valentine's Day person, but there are just so many fun things you can make for the "holiday". I may leave this up year round, though.
This makes me happy. Call me a kid at heart.

What can I say? I have preschoolers. We are into rainbows and hearts around here :) |
