Saturday

So how is the paper mache going? Today is the day for layer 2! Just rinse and repeat.

I am trying to do a craft for the girl's end of the school year party on Monday. For this, I need to do something for 21 kids. My thoughts are to do two crafts, actually...one for the teacher to keep, and one for the kids to keep. On the shirt list for the teachers is an apron or bag with all 21 kids putting handprints on it. I got into the game a day late and dollar short to do the "forget me not" craft that I read about on FamilyFun.com. Maybe for next year---and for both kids. It is a really cute idea! Basically, get a copt of the class picture, decoupage it on the plastic (PLASTIC!! terra cotta seeps water!) pot. Then, on a large craft-stick, write the year of the class and the name of your child. Add a baggie of dirt and a packet of seeds and voila! A forget-me-not pot. Simple and timeless. :)
