27 years, 27 materials.

Today, March 29th marks my 27th year of life. And from another crafty blogger, there always comes inspiration. Elise writes her heart out via enJOY it, one of my most favorite places on which to (purposely) stumble. So thank you Elise, for posing this fabulous challenge (interestingly enough, she's 27 this year too) because I've taken hold and started running!

So, stay tuned. Get involved. With the kiddos of Children's Art Studio (or if I'm really good, on my own) we'll create 27 new projects with 27 different materials.

Do you have some material suggestions? Share it with me. Let's get our art on, because...

Right?!

Enthused Thursday!

Saturday, April 14th. 

Claim your easel.

But first, enjoy some artistic enthusiasm.

"No Pinch Pins" for Good Day Columbus!

Sharing a wee little St. Patrick's Day Luck

What you need:

• Two-Four Safety Pins (any size) 
• Contact Paper
• Scissors, Hole Punch, Pencil
• Green paper
• Beads
• Clover stamp (optional)
• Or...forget the paper/stamp. Find a real clover and use that!

__________________________________________________________

What to do:

Draw or stamp clover

  

Turn it over so you don't see pencil lines

Place on contact paper and fold.
Make sure there is plenty of room above the clover for a hole punch.

Punch hole and cut around clover

Add a couple beads to larger safety pins.
Fashion like so.

Add safety pins through beaded pins.
This is the pin you will use to attach to clothing.

Ta-da!
