Pinterest Projects With the Ones

My Pinterest board entitled Projects With the Ones is flooded with ideas with which I rarely follow through it seems.

Recently I decided to set my talented children to task to accomplish some of these fun tasks.

London was first to be given the challenge.  I asked her to peruse the Pinterest board and to make a choice.  She was instructed to gather all of the necessary supplies at our home or to make a list of what would be needed to complete the project.

She chose an art project that is as simple as it is sweet.

Using pages from a discarded book, we all drew designs of our choice in black ink on our papers.  Then we traced the outline of the black ink drawings with white paint to make them stand out more.

They turned out great – with real potential for future cute craft ideas as well.  (I’m thinking cutting the pages into triangles would make a cute banner or small circles for a bunting.  Maybe a word spelled out with one letter per page.  Lots of options.)

So we could enjoy looking at the fruits of our labor, I strung them across the school room window.

Happy Friday and happy weekend friends.  I hope it’s just what you need it to be.
