My daughter Sadie and I have been seeing crayon art projects around a lot lately. Sadie finally decided to give it a try. She used a blog post from Kindergarten Lifestyle to help her along in the process. Here she is to blog about her creation:
Hi! My name is Sadie I just love do art projects and artsy stuff! And also enjoy scrapbooking with my mom!
I was inspired to make this when I was searching for art projects for my sister and I to do. That's when I found this project.
I thought this was the coolest project ever. I thought I would give it a try:)
First we found a canvas that we had laying around, I got some Elmer's school glue, I also had to pick out crayons that I wanted to use. I glued them to the canvas.
I let those dry and lied some newspaper down. Under the newspaper I put a big book to lean the canvas on so the wax would drip down.
Once the glue dried I got out a hair dryer on high and hair dried the wax. This is what it looks like then it is done:
I let it dry on the newspaper overnight to make sure it was dry. I want to put it in a frame. Mom says maybe a regular frame without the glass will work.
I hope you like my project as much as I do!:) Thanks for reading!!
I was recently inspired by a crafting friend Linda and a post she made to Facebook. When I saw the bandana dress she made, I knew I wanted to make my own. So here are my adventures:
First, I picked up some bandanas from Michael's. I sewed them together to make this dress:
However, she wasn't thrilled with it. :( My older daughter asked to try it on as a shirt and she loves it! So new shirt for her :)
I then wanted to make a skirt. I was going to try to simply fold the bandana in half and sew a slot for the elastic. I looked online however and found this cute tutorial. So I went to Walmart quick and got some more bandanas. This skirt is the result:
She wanted the blue on the outside and as long as she was going to like it, I was up for it! (She also doesn't hold very still for photographs!)
Now both of my girls have their outfits ready for the 4th of July!
