Valentines day [kid friendly] art
Now I love valentines day all holidays. Seriously, I am a holiday freak. If I hadn't practically killed myself with all the Christmas chaos I would have posted all 20 some odd homemade gifts I made. But one of my favorite parts about the holidays is getting to do a themed project for the grandparents (and great grands) out of state that don't get to enjoy "da boy" as much.
Now this is something I saw on Pinterest (Of course) by this clever blogger. Since my recent job choice gives me weekends and holidays off (such as MLK day) I decided me and little man would have a fun one. All you need is paint and an old toilet paper roll. THAT'S IT! Let me explain the reasons to love this, if you don't already. 1. It's so easy my lack of an attention span 2 year old loved it. 2. It's recycled material. Cute and something that generally goes to waste? My kind of project. 3. This could be used for any holiday. Perfect for valentines day? Of course, but do it with any color to fit any holiday. Could be used on thank you cards, daddy day cards, birthday cards, you name it. Seriously, what not to love?
Thats his lovely picture. Seriously his talent AMAZES me, such a proud momma (;
I didn't get a chance to take a picture of his adorable self stamping away. I made the decision to use acrylic paint so I was on close by watch. This however, could easily be done with washable paint.
Loved this project, made one for the hubby-to-be and made 4 cards for our lovely elders.
Follow my Pinterest obsession. (:
