Web Wednesday: Painted Art Canvas & Paper Flower Bouquet
During the spring there are several holidays and events to craft for. There is Easter, Mother's Day, and plenty of birthdays. If you're Mom or a teacher to little kids, the spring the one of the best seasons to teach your little ones how to create not just crafts, but handmade gifts as well. Here are two great options that you can create with your kids. Use these projects as Mother Day gifts, or possible birthday presents. This painted art canvas and paper flower bouquet were found on a great parenting site, called Mom It Forward. These projects were made with a mixture of Apple Barrel paint, and FolkArt Extreme glitter paint. Both craft projects are fun, and allow for your kids to get creative. Click here to see how these were made, and to see all the supplies you will need.
