Kids bag

 

Yesterday Me and Curly top decided to decorate a canvas bag we bought from Wal-Mart a couple weeks ago. We had lots of fun picking out what designs to do.  We cut the design from my silhouette machine. Then I traced it on the fabric and cut it out. (I do realize you can cut fabric with the silhouette, but I couldn’t figure it out so) Then we used heat n bond and ironed every thing on. I made some ruffles for the water. Curly top really loves her bag. Really anything we make for her she loves. This was a cheap project too. The bag was 2.50 and everything else I had at home.

 

Pretend Mail

Curly top informed me today that we needed to do a project. So of course I turned to pinterest! Curly top saw this version of the play envelopes. They are pretty darn cute! So we decided to try and make are own. They turned out so cute and we are having fun with them! I had all the supplies at the house so that’s always nice! We just used permanent marker for the writing. We also made pretend notes. These are just easy and fun!

Home Made Chalk Paint

 We actually made are own Chalk Paint! How rad is that! Seriously the more I find these recipes on Pinterest the more I just think...wow seriously how did I not know how to do this! These recipes should have been passed down from generation to generation!  My little girl on top would not get the whole pretend your holding the balloons. This is the best picture I could get.

Of course we invited over some friends to have some fun too!

 Okay want to go make your own.....all you do is MIX EQUAL PARTS WATER AND CORNSTARCH! Add whatever color of food coloring you want throw it in a cup cake pan and hand out some brushes!

So after learning about tons of home made crafts you can do with your kids, lv started picking up old cupcake pans at yard sales and thrift stores for pretty cheap! I have found that the half ones are best for kids. Iv used them on many other projects so just FYI. O and The original place I found the recipe is from Let the Children Play.

Easter project

This was a fun little Easter project, that was free. I just used all the supplies we already had at home! I pre cut everything for her and she glued them all on the page and then we put yellow paint on her hands for the wings. I think it turned out so cute. I got the idea Here.
