Getting messy with crafts

Last year I found The Crafty Crow. It is a great site that hosts many different bloggers' craft ideas. Avery and I have taken advantage of some of them and enjoyed getting messy.


Paper mache bowls. We used a glue and water mixture to cover a bowl with tissue paper.


The finished bowl. Avery was quite proud of it.


Painting on plexi-glass. Once the painting is done, you can take another piece of paper and make a print of the paint.


He told me he was washing himself with paint. It's on his face because he tried to sniff it and got a little too close.


Sticking various things to contact paper and then covering it up. It makes a nice window display. It's also great for dexterity. He would put things on and then pull them back off.
