DIY Sidewalk Paint...

How super exciting is this colorful, easy to make, sidewalk paint!? It's almost more fun to make than it actually is to paint. The kids loved watching the mixture turn into their favorite colors!

What you need:
-Cornstarch
-Water
-Gel food coloring
-Muffin Pan or several plastic bowls














I started by scooping a heaping tablespoon of cornstarch into my muffin pan, adding the food coloring then the water. I didn't like the texture so I just kept adding cornstarch and water until it was more of a thick paste.


Send me pictures of the creations your kids make!

DIY Wreath

I am one of those people. I had my Christmas wreath up until just yesterday. I know, super tacky. It's not like I left it up there on purpose I just never thought about it until I was walking out the door. I had a whole evening to myself yesterday so I finally decided to do something about that wreath. I don't have a lot of experience making them so I decided to browse Pinterest for a bit of inspiration. I ended up blending things from several different ones that I liked and now I want to pass along that inspiration.

I got everything from Michaels craft store.

-A simple brown picture frame - $4.00













- Roll of hemp - $3.00
- 2 pieces of felt (To make flowers out of. Link to tutorial) - $.20 each
- Big monogram letter - $4.00
- Choice of paint color to paint your Monogram letter - $.60
- Needle and thread and hot glue gun from home



I just simply started by hot gluing an end piece of hemp to the back side of my frame and then wrapped it all the way around. I cut and glued once I got to each corner.

Arrange your felt flowers (I found a great tutorial here) however you like with a hot glue gun and then hot glue your monogram letter on! Simple as that!
