Craftiness on a snow day

Yesterday the kids had a snow day, so we got our craftiness on and made one of these.  I'm sure you've seen them around the web before.  I've wanted to do this for a long time and a snow day seemed like a good time to do it.


Hot glue some crayons to a white canvas.  (we painted white over this old canvas - and, yes, that is a paintbrush in the middle.)  It doesn't have to be perfect, unless you're one of those types that it does have to be perfect, in which case, take a deep breath.

 add a silly child

and start blow drying

and blow dry some more

and some more

until you have something like this:

Isabel added some sparkle to the right side which is hard to see in the pictures but very pretty.  Fun project.  I recommend it.

If you had a snow day too,

I hope you had a fun day!
