Well, if there is any advantage to living in the Polar Vortex in Minnesota, it's that I have a little time to try and get caught up on 6 months of blog posts. Or at least attempt getting started writing posts. This first post is just a catch-up post of a couple projects to ease my way in. ;-)
First, here's a duct tape notebook my 8 year old made all on her own last summer. She didn't look at anything on Pinterest or online. Just had the picture in her head (my little right-brained learner!) and created this!
Look at that ear detail! It's 3-dimensional!
We had a wonderful nanny last summer and we made these fun little gifts for her as thank you gifts:
She was heading to Virginia Tech for school so we attempted to make her a rainbow loom bracelet in the right colors (really the school color is a little more maroon, but I digress). I just gave the girls some 5 x 7 canvas boards and asked them to make a fun picture, but that I wanted them to use different lines and patterns so here's what they came up with. They used permanent markers to color these.
The bright colors and happy drawings make me think of summer and warmth! :-)
My girls school has an art class once a week after school. Each girl will be artist of the week once during the term. Here are the girls' artist of the week creations for the fall:
These paper sculptures were really cool! I love the 3-dimensional quality of them!
(Sorry the quality of the photos isn't the best, I took them on my iPhone). ;-)
