Arts and Crafts

Hannah and I have been having a lot of fun doing arts and crafts lately!  I'm going to summarize a few different projects in this post just to save time...

Although we couldn't attend her friend Isabelle's birthday party, Hannah had a lot of fun gluing jewels onto this princess shoe that they gave us to do at home.  I'm guessing they must do a lot of gluing at school because she knew exactly what to do!

She was so good at using a glue stick - Who knew?

She ran out of room so we moved on to a bigger piece of paper.

The beautiful end result!

We also had a great time making a birthday card for Titi with buttons and ribbons...

Ta da!

 

This say "Titi" and a few other things

After seeing some of the fun crafts that Mommy and Titi had made for Chanukah when we were little, Hannah wanted to make some too.  We made a craft stick menorah!

The finished product

One of her Chanukah presents was a bunch of art supplies, including glittery pom-poms, feathers, and different colors of googly eyes.  We made monsters (Daddy's idea).

I saw this idea on Pinterest - we made bead snowflakes!  We haven't finished them yet, but once we do (if?!?), we decided that we should hang them in the dining room windows as a decoration for the winter time.

Thanks to Titi for giving us her old beads to play with!

Last but not least, I made a bulletin board to hang up in our kitchen with some of her artwork - the fridge isn't big enough to hold all of it!
