What!!?!??? Crafts?
I dont' know what has gotten in to me. Must be the pregnancy. I have been just wanting to do crafts all the time. Not usually like me. I have no creative bone in me and all the cute crafts I see friends do I think they are just too much work or I could never get it to look right. I have no idea how to use a sewing machine so all sewing crafts are out of the picture. So first I went to volunteer in Preston's class and the teacher had them taking tissue paper and wetting it on a white cardstock leaf and letting it dry. The color bleeds through and colors the leaf. I thought this is really easy and it would give Karleigh and I something to do while boys are in school. Well my tissue paper and crepe paper wouldn't bleed when wet. I don't know if you need to use a special kind of tissue paper or what so I went to target and bought some more well it wouldn't bleed the color through either. ( little side note if anyone knows why it wouldn't or if their is a special kind please comment what kind. Coco and Kar really wanted to do the water thing) Anyway. We just crinkled and glued the paper on. The kids still had fun.
Craft two: Candy Corn wreath. The kids really liked making these. Kar hung her's on the front door, Coco hung his on his bedroom door and Prest hung his outside on the railing. They turned out really cute.
