It’s Monday! Hope
you had a wonderful weekend and were able to create a craft project. If you
were not able to craft this weekend, no worries here is an easy craft you can
create with your kids during the week. These chalkboard painted clay pots are
very easy to create, and make for a great springtime project. For this project
you will not need many supplies. Aside from the clay pots, you will only need
some Apple Barrel and chalkboard paint. So simple and so fun.
