Let is snow!

We took a break from the cold and yucky weather outside to make our own snowflakes. The kids helped me decorate their grandmother Mae Mae's Christmas box that held all her snowflake and snowman decorations for her Winter Games. They had a great time... although I must admit I got a bit tense as I realized that they were using a LOT of paint... fabric paint... that won't come out of their clothes. What was I thinking?



Nicolas decorates one of his snowflakes. This was before I realized my mistake on choice of paint medium and stripped him down!

Lexi chooses pink glitter fabric paint. Have a bib on her at least and sleeves all the way pulled up. Sorry... snowflake is blending in with the background.

Here is our finished products. The white ones aren't quite viewable as they are laying on the white board I have them do artwork on. But they were actually prettier (in a messy, abstract sort of way) in person. The glitter and such helped! We'll try this one again next year. They did look fun on her box!
